Transcript [MUSIC PLAYING] JENNY GUY: [LAUGHS] Kicking off with that fun sound, we are here, everybody. It is December 12. So it's 12/12/2019. This is Teal Talk. I am your host, Jenny Guy. I'm Mediavine's Director of Marketing. And we are excited for a very fun show today. I have two incredible guests from the Mediavine staff here to talk about maybe not our most fun topic, but one that is necessary and that we can do everything possible in our power to protect against, and mitigate the damage. So, right now, we're in the midst of Q4. It's the happiest time of the year. We're making all the money, all of the dollars, all the advertisers are spending. And then we go to January 1. And it feels like we take a leap off a cliff. So I brought a couple of experts in here to help us get prepared for that, to winterize ourselves from the scariness that is Q1 1st. We have meet our Mediavine Co-Founder. It is Amber Bracegirdle. She is the Managing Editor of Food Fanatic. And she is here with us. Hi, Amber. Welcome back. AMBER BRACEGIRDLE: Hello, thank you so much. Good to be here, guys. JENNY GUY: We haven't had you on in so long. AMBER BRACEGIRDLE: I know. JENNY GUY: I don't know why it's been so long, but it's so good to have you. AMBER BRACEGIRDLE: Well, I was supposed to be on that one this summer that Josh jumped in for me because I wasn't feeling well. And, I mean, we got the Beanie Babies out of that. So-- [LAUGHTER] JENNY GUY: I could never forget that, the Beanie Baby Live. It was a special time for us all. AMBER BRACEGIRDLE: It really was. JENNY GUY: And then for his first time ever on a Mediavine Live appearance, we have BRAD HAGMANN, Brad from the Internet, B-rad, our Vice President of Ad Operations. Brad, welcome. BRAD HAGMANN: Hello. Thank you for having me. I've been begging to get on this show forever. JENNY GUY: You have. AMBER BRACEGIRDLE: He lies. BRAD HAGMANN: So it's is lovely to be here. AMBER BRACEGIRDLE: He's lying. JENNY GUY: He's always-- always trying to get on this show. And I had to say no so many times. And, finally, I said, fine. You seem to know something about ads. I'll let you on the program. BRAD HAGMANN: There you go. JENNY GUY: Brad, so you're something-- we're going to start here because you've never been on. And I'm going to capitalize on it. You are basically Mediavine royalty. So if you could tell us what does the Vice President of Ad Ops do? And what kind of your trajectory was at Mediavine? Because your job has been a little fluid over-- since we've become full service ad managers. BRAD HAGMANN: Royalty, wow. JENNY GUY: Yeah. BRAD HAGMANN: That's a great introduction. JENNY GUY: Yeah. AMBER BRACEGIRDLE: I agree with that BRAD HAGMANN: I mean, so honestly, the answer is, like, most days, I don't even know. It's sort of a joke, but not really. But, you know, with the speed of change in this industry, I don't really know what when next week or my next month is going to look like.

How about how to constantly create new content and still do all the other things that blogging requires?  If you are curious about ads or systematizing your content creation, you're going to want to listen to today's conversation with Amber Bracegirdle.  But first, I wanted to share something with you. My husband and business partner, David, and I have noticed something; a lot of the listeners of this podcast want to start an online business or a blog, but they have no idea where to start. So, if the tech required for starting a blog has been holding you back, I have great news for you!  MiloTree is now offering blog start-up services! Just go to MiloTree/BlogStart to see how we can help you. We know how overwhelming it can be to start a business if you're not tech-savvy.  That's why we decided it was time to help people get over the hump of getting their blog set up so they could move on to creating content, serving their audience, and developing products.  If you're ready to make 2020 the year you finally start that business or blog you've been dreaming of for a long time, let us help. Head over to MiloTree/BlogStart to get started.  We can't wait to see what you build in 2020! Amber Bracegirdle is one of the founders of MediaVine, an online ad network. Many of our listeners use MediaVine on their blogs for ads.  In this conversation, Amber shares how Mediavine came to be a business, her system for creating great content, and what the future holds for publishers and bloggers.  I think you're going to love this episode, so let's get to it.  Qualifications for MediaVine There are many different ad networks that bloggers can work with and they each have their own unique qualifications.  Mediavine requires you to have at least 25,000 sessions, not pageviews, in a 30-day period.   They prefer to work with bloggers who target audiences from mostly English-speaking countries because that is where you are going to make the most money.  The other requirements are that you must post long-form content, your site must be at least 3-4 months old, and you must be in good standing with Google AdSense.  Creating Unique Blog Content In today's world of blogging, you have to differentiate yourself from other bloggers. Finding ways to stand out from the crowd is a good thing. If you've been blogging for several years, as Amber and I have, you may have an idea of what a blog post is “supposed” to look like.  You start with your topic, create long-form content around that topic, and at the end of the post, you give your reader a call to action. Unfortunately, that's where most bloggers stop.  But there are so many other types of content that will allow your blog to rank higher in search engines.  One great way to use your own content, and incorporate content from other bloggers as well, is to do round-up style posts. Round-ups are lists of posts all revolving around a certain topic.  If you want to increase the traffic to your site, create content that answers specific questions. People go to Google to ask questions and Google then sends those people to articles that answer their questions. The key here is to create different types of content (lists, DIYs, recipes, how-tos) aside from what you think of as basic blog content. Venture out from the type of post you've always created and try a list or answer some common questions.  Keyword Research to Rank in Google Back in the early days of blogging, bloggers could write about whatever they wanted. If I wanted to try a recipe for dinner, I could snap a few photos and write about how I made the recipe and whether or not my family enjoyed it.  Not anymore. Blogs are no longer merely online journals of your daily life. Nowadays, bloggers have to be much more strategic about what they write about and how they write about it.  And that's where keyword research comes into play. Knowing what your audience is searching for is going to grow your traffic as you provide answers to their questions.  Be strategic about how you cover every aspect of a topic, with a different problem and answer in every post. And be sure to include links in each post to the other posts on that topic.  Multiple Blog Audiences  You don't have to put your content out to every audience you have, but it is on your site for the person who's going to ask that question and need your answer.  You have multiple audiences and you can cater to the different people coming to you from all over the internet.  Someone coming from Pinterest wants something different than someone coming from Google.  Be strategic about who you are writing your content for, and how you can reach everyone from every walk of life. This helps you avoid burnout as you create different forms of content rather than always having to create something new from scratch. The Importance of Video as a Blogger Video is growing in popularity and in importance.  It's great for your site's SEO; it's great user experience; it's huge for your income.  Just as an example, the CPM, (or cost per 1K ad impressions) for video ads in 2019 was $19. Whereas the CPM for display ads was $2-3.  The only problem with video is there isn't enough video content to meet the demand for it.  From the beginning, Mediavine has been interested in giving the reader what they want, and in the process, they gave the advertisers what they wanted as well. If you're ready to start working with Mediavine, you can contact them at Mediavine.com, and listen to Amber's podcast at Theory of Content.  Read the Transcript for “How to Write Successful Blog Posts Today” Imagine a world where growing your social media followers and email list was easy… It can be with MiloTree!

Are you wanting to increase your ad revenue as a blogger? Amber Bracegirdle from Mediavine is giving you strategies to help you see your income increase.As a publishing company, Mediavine was struggling to make the most of their ad management company so they decided to build their own. Within two weeks they were earning more than they had been through their top earning ads with the other management company.Through a series of trial and error using their own sites as the guinea pigs, Amber and her colleagues discovered the best way to display ads and how to make their software work for any site, no matter how big or how small.Links:jennymelrose.com/ad-revenuejennymelrose.com/ad-revenueClick to view: show page on Awesound

Think display ads are a waste of time and website real estate? Think again. For many bloggers, running ads was a first, failed attempt at monetization. Frustrated with a lack of control over what ads were served to their readers, an impossibly slow load time, and/or an unexpectedly low payout, they eventually chalked the experience up as a lesson learned, removing the ads and never looking back. But like everything else on the digital landscape, advertising has changed and evolved. Running display ads can most definitely generate real revenue, providing a lucrative and relatively passive income stream. The key is optimizing your site for your advertising— and your advertising for your audience. There is always a loss in user experience to add advertising to your site. That doesn't mean don't do it. It just means that the return on that advertising needs to be worth it. Amber Bracegirdle This week on the Businessese Influencer Marketing Podcast, Amber Bracegirdle unlocks the mystery behind best practices for maximizing ad revenue. Amber is a co-founder at Mediavine, a full service ad management company working with 4000 bloggers across the entire lifestyle spectrum, as well as the managing editor of FoodFanatic.com and co-host of the Theory of Content podcast. Amber is all about SEO and making the business of blogging better, and she shares all the good stuff in this episode! Listen in as she goes over: why placing ads on your site can be a gamechanger how Mediavine's ad system differs from others, generating more income "affiliate marketing and ads don't mix" and two more digital advertising myths how display advertising affects SEO how website owners can optimize for ad income— and the biggest mistakes they often make who should start adding ads to their site (hint: it's not everybody) What has your experience running ads been like? What are your top tips— or your most trying trials? Let's talk it out over in Businessese HQ.
