HOSTING
Bluehost
If I could turn back time I would have started off on my own self-hosted WordPress.org site. Instead I was on a free blogging site and had to move everything over. Paying for hosting is a small price to pay to actually own your website. If you use free blog platforms it’s like building your house on someone else’s land and if they decide to boot you- you lose years of work.
For only $3.95 per month you can own your own website and domain!

THE BEST COURSES & TRAININGS
Pinning Perfect
I’m super picky about Pinterest courses because not everyone has blogging long enough to really have a tested strategy nor are they keeping their courses continually updated when changes are made.
I’m a huge fan of this course and Melissa Culbertson (one of the leaders) because she actually spends time in Pinterest Headquarters on the regular. Leaders are active in the group Facebook. When you are ready to DEEP DIVE into your Pinterest Strategy give this course a go! My clients have walked through it have told me they’ve seen a significant increase in traffic.
