But what does bootcamp cover?
Basics, Branding, and Wordpress
In week 1, we cover everything from buying a domain to nailing down your brand's identity. Experienced bloggers will spend most of their time focusing on clarifying their vision and brand, while newbies will be busy with blog basics.
Recipe Development, Editorial Planning, Post Writing
We'll discuss effective recipe writing, the etiquette of inspiration, how to efficiently test recipes, and planning recipes and an editorial calendar for SEO opportunities. In week 4, we'll also cover how to write a recipe blog post clearly and concisely, what to include, what to omit, and how to balance SEO, the reader, and you, the blogger!
Photography: Part 1
From gear to selecting a signature style, natural vs. artificial light (and how to work with both!), food and prop styling, planning a shoot, and the method that Cheryl teachers her private coaching clients for instantly improved shots, developing food photography skills is one of the most important investments a food blogger can make. This week is designed for both newbies and vets.
SEO
You're either addicted to SEO or terrified of it - is there any in-between? In week 5, we'll cover the SEO a food blogger needs to know after writing the post. From identifying the posts you should treat to actually updating posts, using SEO tools effectively and Cheryl's own personal workflow, plus the SEO strategy Cheryl implements on her own sites and with her private coaching clients.
Photography: Part 2 + Video
In week 3, we finish the topic of food photography, discussing the ins and outs of what happens after the camera is turned off. From properly organizing photos and backing up your media to editing efficiently in Lightroom, we complete our focused discussion of food photography and switch camera modes over to video. We'll discuss why you should produce video in the first place, Cheryl's super simple method of easily shooting lovely video, and editing basics.
Social Media + Making Money
In week 6, we cover all things social media: Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, plus TikTok, Jumprope, and web stories! We cap the program with discussion of how to make money with your food blog, from ad networks to affiliate programs, sponsored campaigns to brand representation, plus how to absolutely nail a branded campaign.
What Other Bloggers Have to Say:
"If you’re thinking about investing in Cheryl’s program, don’t think twice about it. With 100% sincerity, Cheryl changed the game for my career, my business and my life. I was feeling stagnant and frustrated with blogging before the program and after I came out with a plan and tactics that helped grow my blog page views over 200% in just a few months. I went from making a few hundred dollars in ad revenue a month, to a few thousand in less than 6 months! Cheryl dives deep into everything you’re doing wrong and doing right to build a plan that works for you. I have systems and strategies in place that allow me to make passive income and work more strategically in my business. Her teaching style (you’ll become an SEO master, I promise!) is easy to understand and tailored to your blog, so everything feels very attainable and customized, which I loved. This was truly the best money I have ever invested in myself and one of the best decisions I have ever made for my business."
