Getting to this point with our travel blog was not easy. Blogging is NOT a get-rich-quick scheme. The blogging journey takes time and effort.

When I first started travel blogging in 2014, I tried everything to make money with my website.

I wrote blog posts consistently for over 3 years. I spent 35+ hours per week trying to grow our Instagram account. We even reached over 1 million monthly viewers on Pinterest.

And not one of those things worked. Not one dollar went into our bank account from any of these exhausting efforts.

After taking numerous mediocre and vague online courses, listening to countless hours of podcasts about blogging, and reading every ebook I could get my hands on, I finally pieced together the strategies necessary to make money from blogs.

But our journey didn't end there. It took several years to perfect the skills that would ultimately bring us (and so many of our students) success.

Our goal with Scale Your Travel Blog is to simplify the travel blogging process so that you can bypass all the noise and start making money from your blog 10x faster.

We launched Scale Your Travel Blog in January 2021. Since then, we’ve helped over 85 students join the premium ad network Mediavine and supported thousands more in creating sustainable incomes from their blogs.

Our high success rate has earned Scale Your Travel Blog recognition in prestigious publications and numerous awards for our student-first approach.

Here's what our students have to say about Scale Your Travel Blog:

"[I am] just about hitting 150,000 monthly website traffic. I'm doing over $10,000 dollar months, starting from zero like everybody else.."

- Shelley Marmor, Travel Mexico Solo

"The best decision I made was joining Scale Your Travel Blog... I made a goal to make $1,000 a month by the end of June, and last month in May, I made over $2,000."

- Josh Band, A Backpacker's World

We realized that if we really wanted this to work, we would need to take this seriously and make that investment in ourselves and our blog. This is why we decided to finally take the plunge and buy SYTB.

In the 1 month of joining SYTB, the course insight alone has taught us (amongst many other things) to format affiliate posts properly, which has since led to multiple tour bookings and, incredibly, our first affiliate payment. Likewise, the methods to reach out for backlink opportunities have been worth their weight in gold in our mission to build up authority.

Now that we are seeing results like this even after a month, the clarity SYTB has brought has made us feel very excited for the potential of our blog, and for our future.“

I thought I knew SEO, but I really learned so much from this course, and my rankings truly benefited from Laura’s expertise.

Writing new blog posts has become so much easier with the course templates, outlines, and tools. And having Laura’s support every step of the way made a huge difference because I knew she would be there to help me reach my goal of getting into Mediavine. Even when I faced traffic setbacks, Laura’s encouragement and advice got my blog back on track. After taking this course, I know I am set up for success to continue to grow my blog into a full-time six-figure business.

My sessions have grown from 15K sessions to almost 50K sessions in just over 8 months. My DA has grown from 21 to 28. Almost all of my posts rank on page 1 of Google within hours or days of posting them. And my affiliate income continues to grow every month. I honestly can’t imagine where I’d be now without the support, encouragement, and skills I have gained from this course.“

I signed up for Scale Your Travel Blog in May 2021. At that time, I had about 100 users on my website per day. Since implementing the strategies taught in the course, I have increased my traffic by 2,000% over the last 14 months. I have also gone from earning pennies of affiliate income to about $5,000 per month.

I invested in Scale Your Travel Blog and started implementing Laura’s methods. Within 4 weeks, my traffic doubled. It has continued on a consistent upward trend, and I have made more money from my blog in the last 4 months than I have in all the other months combined. Needless to say, I’m excited about blogging now!

I did have reservations prior to purchasing SYTB. I had purchased a few courses before and was always disappointed in the information that was inside. Once I saw the price of SYTB, I was really scared because I wasn’t making any money, and I didn’t want to take another disappointing course with thin information and low value.

Once I attended Laura’s free training, I knew this was different. I felt her energy and enthusiasm and felt like she truly wanted others to succeed and was not just trying to make money. I decided to go ahead with the course and promised if it didn’t work, I would be done and go back to my “real job”.

Luckily, SYTB has been EVERTYHING Laura promised and SO MUCH MORE! The information she gives is in-depth, up-to-date, and easy to implement. The things that set SYTB apart are not only the course but the support you receive along the way. Laura is an excellent cheerleader. She builds you up and makes you believe in yourself, and is there to help you every step of the way.

I’ve gone from a sore and grumpy dental hygienist to a relaxed, happy travel blogger all because of SYTB!”

Since enrolling in STYB, my traffic has seen a 59,900% increase in 15 months!! It was through incremental results that I gained enough confidence to quit my 9-5 job to do travel blogging full-time. I don’t think I would’ve lasted this long in blogging if it wasn’t for Laura’s motivation and support.

I’m grateful to have started SYTB early on in my travel blogging journey and highly recommend starting SYTB as soon as possible if you have even the slightest dream of making money through travel blogging. The SYTB course and coaching went above my expectations.”

My very first post was a keyword from Laura, and it ranked on page 1 of Google within weeks of publishing. In just 7 months, I was able to grow my traffic from just a few monthly sessions to 30K monthly sessions.

I’ve also been able to land partnerships with tourism boards, and actually make money with affiliate marketing strategies I learned in this course.

[Prior to joining] I did have reservations about buying the course. For one, it’s a big investment in a career path that I really didn’t know much about. There’s still this stigma out there that blogging as a career is dead, over-saturated, or just not legitimate, and I felt a little crazy for spending money on a class in this field for those reasons.

But once I went through Laura’s free trainings, and saw her examples on how you can have success with blogging without relying on social media, I decided to invest in myself, and my dreams. It was cheaper than some of my college classes, so putting it into perspective like that also helped.

SYTB has exceeded my expectations! While the lessons in the course are worth the money alone, I was blown away by how much Laura cares about her students, and she’s created a wonderfully supportive and positive community where I feel encouraged during my journey.

And Laura really knows what she’s talking about. She’s always staying on top of SEO trends, and learning more about the field. And most importantly, her methods actually work. Buying this course is one of the best things I have done for myself. My only regret is that I wish I had done it sooner.“

I didn’t have any reservations about joining the group [SYTB], I had actually joined a different group initially, but this one seemed more group-focused and a team feeling. It’s really just making an investment so you can get results much much quicker and have help along the way.”
