The blogging personal curriculum that will replace all the courses and we're giving it you free
from The Branding Fix
People sell thousand-dollar blogging courses and five-figure coaching programs for information that's stale the second you buy it. So instead of buying one, we built ourselves a PERSONAL curriculum: a complete, free course to go from zero to a profitable blog, in order, with no gaps.The keyword is personal: a generic course dumps the same lessons on everyone; a personal curriculum meets you where you're actually stuck. In this live coworking session, we hand you the whole thing AND show you how to build your own personalized version: no course to buy at the end. We talk about why blogging is making a comeback as creators seek non-algorithmic, long-form connection and better monetization, and we explain why our own traffic dropped when we wrote primarily for Google by keyword chasing and stripping personal experience out of posts.We outline what’s changed: blog for depth using interlinked content clusters built from three pillars and 10 specific user questions each, write from lived experience or “learning in public,” and prioritize brand recognition and human-first search intent over faceless, search-only strategies. We warn against AI-written, AI-optimized, or AI-generated content, citing reports of Google de-indexing blogs, and urge deleting all AI posts and images.We cover practical setup and promotion: self-hosted WordPress with a simple theme and minimal plugins for performance, plus promotion via one social platform, Pinterest, long-form video or podcasting, and a newsletter built around journey-based mini-courses rather than freebies, and lots more. Plus we answer your questions live, replay crew: pop your thoughts and questions in the comment section.👇 Where are you stuck right now?
