I’d love to hear from you. Are you a Mom Blogger at the early stages of building your blog?
Which affiliate programs are your favourite?
Great post!
Thank you so much!
I have been looking for some quality blog post information to pass along to my wife and this may very well be what I have been searching for! Thanks for putting it all together in such an easy and understandable format. It can be hard to learn such things when you have a newborn taking up alot of your time, and having resources like this make it so much more attainable
Gabe G.
Aah, so glad I could help, Gabe! I remember those foggy newborn days well. I spent hours and hours reading Mom blogs on my phone while my son was nursing. I love the thought that Moms with newborns can gain something from my blog now. Really appreciate your comment.
Your headline drew me in. This is an inspiring post and were I not already engaged in learning to blog, I would have possibly purchased the book. There is so much nonsense on the web about how you can make money from home. It’s refreshing to see that it’s really possible..
Thank you.
So true. Glad you found it inspiring, Howard. Let’s do this.
Hi Lauren,
Your article is really informative and yet so easy to grasp. And its so motivational! I have to admit it is not easy to remain motivated when you are not seeing the immediate benefits of owning your own website and blogging etc, but you give off the idea of persevering after this example of her book eventually achieving a great income on just 2 hours work a day.
That would be incredible if I could manage that.
Keep doing your great reviews!
So pleased to hear you found it motivational, Luke. Thanks for your comment. Lets do it!
Hey Lauren, just wanna say I absolutely love your blog! My girlfriend is always complaining about wanting to be a “housewife” , lol but maybe I’ll just show her this instead! In your opinion, do you make more off affiliate marketing or selling your own product? Like your ebook for example.
Hi Gabe, I’ll ask Victoria if she’s happy to give a breakdown or income report detailing those figures. I’ll be interviewing her soon. I don’t have my own ebook yet but that’s definitely my next step.
Hi Gabe, just following up on your question. Victoria just gave out these percentages in her latest post on how she retired her husband. She’s now earning $5000 a month and her income breakdown is 45% from her books and worksheets, 35% from Affiliate Sales &
20% from Advertising.
Hey there,
I know a few older moms who would love to start blogging but do not know the basics of adding posts to a Website etc. Would you still recommend this book if the person is a complete beginner?
Will it work if the person is completely new to blogging or is this book for people in the intermediate stage looking to take their blog to the next level?
Looking forward to your response.

Hi Crystal, really good question. I got my foundation at Wealthy Affiliate so I didn’t read Victoria’s book as a complete beginner. I’ll go back and read It again with your question in mind and get back to you. For now, I would say yes and no. The step by step training I got at Wealthy Affiliate is second to none.
Yes I would love to know as well. I’ve been researching on how to start a blog for some time now. And there’s a bunch of information out there. However I’m not sure if all routes are good. So I’m interested in her book if it’s something that helps people like me that want to start but don’t know how.
Hi Kalie, thanks so much for your comment. I started here: Wealthy Affiliate and can highly recommend you do the same as you can start with a free course on the basics.
Well, I’m not a mom blogger, but a dad blogger and I have to say that even as a member of the opposite sex the ‘amodernhomestead’ site does intrigue me – both from an earning perspective and a saving perspective!
I have bookmarked it and will come back to it tomorrow – it’s almost midnight and dadz a bit tired lol
Ha ha. A Dad Blogger’s job is never done. 🙂 Thanks for stopping by.
