Today I had the pleasure of meeting around 150 bloggers at the ProBlogger Training day held here in Melbourne. It was really something to see so many bloggers coming together to learn from each other a better blogging practice. There was nothing like this around when I started out so where ever you are in the world, if you get to hear about a blogger meet up, training day or networking for bloggers I’d jump on that band wagon toot suite!
Here are some of the points I made today when I delivered the session ‘How to monetise your blog with advertising’
How do I find advertisers for my blog?
Pros and cons of working with ad networks
Pros
How to maintain and grow relationships with advertisers
I’m currently working on an e-Book about how to create a stellar media kit for bloggers. Are you interested in this type of thing? Let me know what you would like to see included. Lady loves you!

Phoebe, thanks for such an inspiring session.
I LOVED your media kit and think an ebook is a fantastic idea!
Stay inspired!
Hey all, so glad that you liked my presentation at the ProBlogger training day last Friday, I certainly got plenty out of it myself.
The e-book is on it’s way, it’s in the design stages at the moment and I’m making sure that all the details are perfect 🙂
Great advice, thank you!! Hopefully I can get to Melbourne for the even next year.
Thanks Phoebe! This is great 🙂 I especially found the “How do I find advertisers?” section helpful x
Hi girl…
“I’m currently working on an e-Book about how to create a stellar media kit for bloggers. Are you interested in this type of thing? Let me know what you would like to see included. Lady loves you!”
I can not wait for your e-Book, and I hope it can contain something on the process you went through from being a “hobby” blogger to making a living from it. This is probably not a topic covered in two seconds. But some helpful tips would be great!
From Norway I wish you all the best:)
Hi Phoebe,
I was there and loved your talk – fast, informative and doable. I think there were 300 bloggers but maybe I was seeing double;)
I’ve just followed you on Twitter, I’m @bloggingmentor. It’s great to find another Aussie blogger who’s forging a path for others and keeping it commercial.That’s the way we can all improve our blogs and keep doing it better.
Yes, your ebook sounds like a great idea.
Hi Lady Melbourne,
It was so good to hear you speak on stage in Melbourne. I love your style, your determination, your ideas behind branding and how you stick to what your “Brand” is.
Thank you so much for your information about how to blog, how to make money and how to be successful.
Cheers
Lisa

Thanks for your openess at the #PBEvent. As one that works with brands who are looking to work closer with bloggers, I found your insights, comments and experience very valuable. I believe there needs to be a greater understanding from brands and PR’s in working with bloggers.
I am so in Phoebe 🙂
Everyone wants to know as much as you 🙂 x
still trying toi finish my media kit (just sits there) for months on end *sigh*
ebooks interesting yes.
I would love to learn about how to find your target audience and increase traffic, how to create media kits and promote yourself as a blogger. Love you Lady M!
[…] After filling up on all the delicious food we broke up into two groups with two simultaneous sessions being held at the same time. With the first session being held by Phoebe of Lady Melbourne on Monetisation of your blog (the other being Creating Content with Sonia Simone) we learnt all different aspects of creating a good media kit and ways to monitize your blog. I’ll be writing about this in more depth through the week, however you can read on Phoebe’s blog a recap of her session here. […]
Would love an e-book if you made one. I have a media kit which (hah!) I think is pretty good but I’ve always wanted a definitive guide on what makes a stellar one.
I followed your tweets on this today. I am a l o n g way off using the advice, but it was still really interesting.
Thanks for sharing all of this, I’m just starting to monetise my blog and have no idea what I’m doing. Would love to hear more tips from you 🙂
It was lovely to listen to you today and gained some real insite the monitisation. I haven’t do so yet as I’m still trying to research it more.
I loved your media kit and know that this coming week when I get home it’s on my todo list!
Thanks for today! 🙂

Thanks for the informative session, Phoebe! I also found the media kit really useful.
As I tweeted today, I think your media kit is awesome. Great session today Phoebe!
Wow that was a super quick blog post! 🙂 Great job at #pbevent today 🙂
I would be super-interested to learn everything you know. Sign me up. 🙂
