EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT TRAVEL BLOGGING (AND MORE)
YOU ALREADY KNOW YOU LOVE TRAVEL… NOW DISCOVER HOW TO MAKE A LIVING FROM IT
What if you could build a travel blog that made hotels pay YOU… for the trips you already wanted to take
What’s Stopping YOU From Living The Travel Blogger Life?
From my 12 years’ experience as a travel blogger — and having taught hundreds of bloggers myself — I am VERY familiar with the things that can get in your way from building the life of your dreams with a travel blog.
Here, take a look at this list. Which of these can YOU resonate with?
When you’re starting out…
“Getting paid to travel would be a dream for me, but I just have no idea how to even start.â€
“I’m an introvert, and I’m very shy, so I get nervous even at the thought of pitching to get free travel. And even if I worked up the courage to pitch, I don’t know how, or who I should pitch to.â€
“My husband and I both love travel, but the corporate grind makes it hard for us to have the freedom we want!â€
“I feel like it’s impossible for a newbie like me to break into the field.â€
“I’m still nervous about how much money I’ll have to invest along the way to set up a really nice blog with good graphics, streamlined/convenient maintenance, etc.â€
“How am I supposed to start when I don’t even have any trips I’ve taken?â€
“I do have a blog already, and I love travel, but I don’t know how to pivot it to a travel blog.â€
“How do I make posts that people actually want to read? I’m not even a good writer!â€
“I feel overwhelmed with how long it takes to create just one post with quality photos, video, SEO and pins.â€
“It just feels like travel blogging is saturated already.â€
“I’d love to travel for a living, but I need it to be profitable before I commit to it.â€
Then when you’re a little more advanced, it becomes…
“How am I supposed to get more followers?â€
“Some of the other groups I’m a part of have bloggers who are getting hundreds of thousands of views, and I’m just not on that level — so I feel intimidated and like I have no chance at ever getting to that same spot.â€
“I already have trips planned, and I really feel like I need to learn how to get at least a little something comped… ugh, travel is so expensive!â€
“I’m doubtful that anyone will respond to any outreach work I do, as my blog is still so small and I don’t have a large following.â€
Three Hard-Won Secrets of a Successful Travel Blogger
Some of these insights have taken Pete and I years to perfect… but they have saved (or earned) us thousands of dollars!
Heather & Pete’s Travel Blogging Secret #1:
There’s A Right Way To Pitch
Pitching is one of the fundamental pillars of ANY travel blogging system — because you NEED to do it to get the trips you’re after!
That’s why, as part of our own full “travel blogging systemâ€, we have a little “pitching system†we use to help us land the trips we want.
Now I promised I’d show you one of the exact emails we’ve used to land comped travel.
Well, here’s one we used back in 2016.
We were going on a 19-day tour of Florida, and we wanted to line up comped accommodations for the whole trip.
There was a certain resort we really wanted to stay at along the way. So we pulled out our pitch template email, customized it a little, and sent off this email.
See if you can spot some of the techniques we used to maximize our chances of winning the pitch…
Heather & Pete’s Travel Blogging Secret #2:
Building An Irresistible Coverage Package
Most travel bloggers think that the pitch email is everything. And yes, it’s hugely important — but there’s so much more to it!
One of the big things you’ll always be offering as a travel blogger is your coverage package — that is, what content you are going to create for the travel partner, in return for them compensating your visit.
Like most travel bloggers, we used to be kind of laid-back about this — when we traveled, we’d just document whatever we noticed, and use that in our coverage.
Then one day, we made a small tweak which massively increased our value to our travel partners:
Before we even start working with a new travel partner, we now do our homework on what is important to THEM from our coverage.
And then… we will make sure our coverage package features those things heavily!
That sounds simple… but it’s really what sets us apart from other bloggers.
For example, we will read our travel partner’s press releases to see what is new and what they are most excited to share with potential visitors.
Then we plan ahead of time exactly what pictures/videos we will need, and we make a plan to get them on our trip!
Heather & Pete’s Travel Blogging Secret #3:
