089: How to Build a Plane with Alexa, Jasmine & Raquel from Food Blogger Pro

Episode • Mar 14, 2017 • 1h 4m

Our best advice for new (or experienced) bloggers, how to manage an affiliate program, and where you can find what to blog about in the coming month.

Welcome to episode 89 of the Food Blogger Pro podcast! This week, Bjork interviews FBP team members Alexa, Jasmine, and Raquel about what goes on behind the scenes, and what they’ve learned about blogging during their time as FBP employees.

Alright, alright. This episode is not really about building a plane. Not a real one, at least! But “building a plane” is an analogy we use nearing the end of the episode when we talk about the most important advice we would give to new (or experienced) bloggers. This advice is so important, in my humble opinion, that I’m wiling to give you a free pass and tell you to skip right to the end if you only have 5 minutes to listen.

If you’ve got more than 5 minutes, settle on in for a listen about how we run Food Blogger Pro behind the scenes, and how you can use the same tools, processes, and techniques as we do to take your blog to the next level.

In this episode, Alexa, Jasmine, and Raquel share:

Why you need to be using a recipe plugin on your website
What the Happening Now videos are and why you should be watching them
How Jasmine manages the affiliate programs
What deals you can find as a member of Food Blogger Pro
What purpose the Trending Now articles serve for food bloggers
How we communicate with our customers
