Is Your Blog Actually Working for You—Or Just Working You?
You’re showing up, posting regularly, maybe even repurposing content across different platforms. But your numbers aren’t growing. Your email list is stagnant. And let’s be honest—it’s starting to feel like hard work with little return.
If you’re nodding your head, it’s not just you. One of the most common problems bloggers face is this: they’re creating valuable information… but without a clear strategy. And in a competitive market, strategy is non-negotiable.
Let’s uncover the key traits of blogs that convert—and the common challenges that hold most people back.
Five Costly Mistakes Most DIY Bloggers Make
Even the most talented writers and thought leaders can unintentionally sabotage their blog’s growth. Here’s what’s typically going wrong:
Creating content without strategy
You’re publishing, but the posts aren’t connected to a funnel, offer, or list-building goal. There’s no clear path for readers to become buyers.
Writing to “everyone” instead of your ideal client
Vague content repels. A successful blog speaks directly to one person’s pain point and offers one transformative solution.
Neglecting SEO best practices
Google is powerful—but only if your posts are optimized with relevant keywords your audience actually searches for.
Lack of conversion-focused design
Without CTAs, opt-ins, or direction, your blog becomes a dead-end instead of a gateway into your email marketing ecosystem.
No accountability partner
You’re doing all the things—but without feedback, encouragement, or refinement. Which means you’re often spinning your wheels without knowing what’s actually working.
Why DIY Blogging Drains Energy—and What to Do Instead
You’re not lazy. You’re likely just spread too thin—wearing all the hats of content creator, strategist, designer, SEO expert, marketer, and copy editor. That’s a good thing when you’re scrappy. But at a certain point, the growth you’re craving requires a new level of support.
A good business coach brings clarity, structure, and action plans that simplify the process and amplify your results. Without that guidance, most bloggers fall into decision fatigue, endless pivoting, or worse—procrastination. That’s where Alison’s blog coaching becomes your secret weapon.
How a Blog Business Coach Helps You Grow Smarter
If you’ve ever thought, “I just need someone to tell me what to do,” you’re not alone. The internet is overflowing with free advice—but sorting through it takes time, energy, and often leads to conflicting opinions.
A blog business coach cuts through the noise. They help you:
- Identify what’s already working in your business (so you can double down)
- Clarify your niche, voice, and messaging
- Design a blog structure that supports your offers, funnels, and business goals
- Create a sustainable content plan—one that’s aligned with your energy and time
- Master blog SEO and content repurposing without burning out
- Build real momentum with weekly action steps and accountability
This isn’t about hustle. It’s about alignment, intention, and building something that’s both profitable and sustainable. That’s what makes Alison’s coaching style stand out—because she’s not just focused on traffic or quick wins. She’s focused on your big picture vision and long-term success.

Frequently Asked Questions About Blog Business Coaching
How do I choose the right blog business coach for my needs?
Choosing a blog business coach is a powerful decision—one that can directly impact both your business and personal growth, mindset, and momentum. Start by looking for someone who not only has real-world blogging experience but also understands the unique needs of your niche or industry. Read their client testimonials, explore their free content, and tune in to their energy. Do they speak your language? Do they seem invested in your long-term success, not just quick wins?
The best blog coaches offer more than templates—they offer accountability, structure, and strategic insight tailored to you. Look for someone who can guide you through content strategy, SEO, and blog monetization in a way that aligns with your values, capacity, and vision.
What can I expect to invest in blog business coaching?
Blog coaching is an investment in the systems and strategies that make your content work for you. While rates can vary, you can generally expect to pay between $100 to $300 per 60-minute session, depending on the coach’s experience and the depth of support included. Many coaches offer discounted packages or programs with multiple sessions, which often include added benefits like custom resources, voice note support, or content audits.
Think of it like this: the right coaching can help you avoid years of spinning your wheels and significantly increase your visibility, traffic, and revenue. When you invest in your blog’s strategy, you’re building a long-term business asset that continues to pay off.
How long does it typically take to see results from blog coaching?
Every blog—and every business owner—is different. But if you’re implementing your blog coach’s advice consistently, many clients begin to see measurable progress within 3 to 6 months. That might look like increased traffic, more leads from blog content, improved SEO rankings, or even direct sales from well-placed blog calls-to-action.
The key is implementation. Blog business coaching works best when paired with action. Your coach will provide the roadmap, but your results depend on your willingness to follow it, pivot when needed, and stay in motion.
Can a blog business coach help me if I’m just starting out?
Yes, yes, and absolutely yes. In fact, coaching can be especially valuable in the early stages—before you’ve built habits that might not serve your bigger vision. A blog coach helps you create a clear content plan, develop a blog strategy rooted in your niche, and set up systems that support growth and sustainability from the beginning.
Many new bloggers struggle with information overload. Having an expert in your corner simplifies everything and gives you a clear next step to focus on—so you can build your blog with confidence, not confusion.
How does blog coaching differ from general business coaching?
While general business coaching focuses on broader areas like mindset, operations, or client management, blog coaching zeroes in on your content strategy—especially how your blog fits into your visibility and revenue goals. This can include:
Developing a content marketing plan
Writing and structuring high-converting blog posts
Learning and implementing blog SEO best practices
Building trust and authority through long-form content
Creating blog funnels that nurture leads and drive sales
Think of blog business coaching as a specialty within the larger world of entrepreneurship coaching. If your blog is a key part of your brand or offer ecosystem, having a coach who understands the nuances of content creation and visibility can be a total game-changer.
