So what is a nerdy mom you may ask?

Nerdy Mom: An intelligent woman who embraces her “nerdiness” within, while caring for her family. She still enjoys pursuing hobbies or activities that her children deem nerdy. You don’t have to like all things Sci-Fi or have a mind for technology to be a nerdy mom. If you are passionate about camping, fashion, health, beauty, sports, or any other topic for that matter. If you become so passionate, to the point that you become a wealth of information on that topic or multiple topics, you are a nerdy mom. 

By the way, nerdy moms have more fun because of our corky sense of humor!

~ My journey into blogging ~

Being a previous military spouse, I remember how hard it was keeping a job. You are contently, moving to a new duty station makes it hard for you to build a career. You can’t build longevity at a job. Some places don’t want to take a chance on you because they know you will be leaving in a few years, even if you have a degree. Perspective employers look poorly on you if could not land a job within the first six months of moving to a new location. Even when the job market is out of your control. You can’t get unemployment benefits to help put food on the table or cover bills while you are looking for work. A lot of times you get stuck working a minimum wage job. You knowing you have degree, and their nothing you can do about. But you keep at it because you know you are helping your husband or wife with the financial burden.

 If you do land a job, you always have to work your way back up from the bottom. It take sometimes takes a minimum of one year to prove yourself. You can give up that dream of having a career if you are station overseas since there will be very few job opportunities at all. So you stay at home with the kids until you are station back in the states.

Many military spouses find it hard to finish a degree with the constant moving. Sometimes they are forced to retake completed classes because the education institution refuse to take all the credit they earned or the other school refuse to provide a transcript. Many military spouses give up due to the mounting school costs and frustration of trying to earn a degree. I have heard of all of these same stories from other military spouses too!

 Why did I get started with blogging?

Something had to change, I remember that I use to blog in high school as a hobby. I got my degree as a Web Developer. Is there a way to create a side income with a blog? I wasn’t sure, so I started researching if that was possible. To my surprise, it was not only possible but other women were make money to support their family through blogging as a business! I have always wanted to run my own business but we were always moving. However, blogging was a way to run a business from anywhere.

Through blogging, I found that I could start my own business without spending a fortune or taking out a loan. I’m not say starting up a blogging is total free! However, I could start a business with a few hundred dollars that I have saved up. I spend more time praying and researching how I would do this. I already knew how to build websites since that is what I do at work, but I wasn’t sure how bloggers made money doing it. I learned that bloggers make money many different way. They sell their own product, affiliate marketing, sign up for ad networks, create sponsored post, etc.

I started my own website for my blog, created several posts about technical products that I have used, and how I use them solved a problems I was having in my small business. Then I made my blog live and signed up for affiliate programs and ad networks, so I could monetize my blog. Now I was ready to create a social media account for my new business so people will know my blog was ready for visitors. My first affiliate sale was through the Amazon Affiliate program. It was not a lot money but it was proof that this business model works! All I needed to do was create more blog posts that answered a question or solved a problem that provided my reader value.

Now, I’m not a marketing genius and I was able to prove that it doesn’t takes a special talent to start a blog and make money doing it. My professional background is in Web Development, graphic design, and training. I don’t have marketing or business background at all but I am really good at solving technical problems, training others, and a burning desire to succeed.

A mission to help women  get started with blogging?

This gave me an idea! I can help women and military spouses not get overwhelmed by starting a blogging.  So they will be encourage to not give up and feel empowered to succeed. A blog they can build into their own business! Which they can take with them no matter where their next duty station would be, even if they go overseas! I can make “How To” courses that are easy to follow and provide step by step instruction. That way a they can just follow along in the training with me or send me an email. I can help them solve this problem. This will not only help others but anyone who wants to start a business on a small budget!
