Something we adore about planning conferences is getting to pick out gorgeous venues, decide on delicious food to serve and choosing our line-up of awesome speakers.\n\nFor the last two years, our Mediavine conferences have provided a plethora of knowledge from a spectrum of hand-picked speakers. (Just check out our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=N0jspcTOi4g&amp;list=PLVy2vgUysJwvIxc8X0riugJ5ueQtvzvSn\">YouTube channel<\/a> for a sampling.)\n\nThis year for our TWO events in Chicago and Austin, we expect DOUBLE the information overload.\n\nWe&#8217;re so excited to have Karli Bitner of <a href=\"http:\/\/cookingwithkarli.com\">Cooking with Karli<\/a> on the blog today! She&#8217;ll be speaking about traffic growth at our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/mvcon2019\/\">2019 Mediavine Conference<\/a> in Chicago in June, but today she&#8217;s sharing with us how she got started with blogging, how she makes time for her website alongside her busy family and her strategies for growth.\n\nWe&#8217;re so glad to have you here with us today, Karli!\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-8668 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-WIth-Karli-IV-694x460.jpg\" alt=\"Karli Bitner of Cooking with Karli, along with her family.\" width=\"694\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-WIth-Karli-IV-694x460.jpg 694w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-WIth-Karli-IV-441x292.jpg 441w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-WIth-Karli-IV-768x509.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-WIth-Karli-IV-735x487.jpg 735w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 694px) 100vw, 694px\" \/>\n<h2>Tell us a little bit about yourself, your family and your everyday life.<\/h2>\nI&#8217;m a 20-something stay at home mom to my 3 kiddos. My husband (Dan) works in the medical field and absolutely loves it! We lived on the East Coast for a while but recently moved back home, to Utah.\n\nMy everyday life looks like cleaning, changing diapers, doing homework, cleaning, listening to audiobooks, walking to the bus stop, cleaning and more cleaning! For real though, I&#8217;m a mom by day, blogger by night. My usual work hours are from 7PM- 1AM. Cheesy Netflix movies are my friend.\n\nOh, and the whole recipe development &amp; photography part happens during nap time. (Praise the heavens for nap time.)\n<h2>How did you get started blogging?<\/h2>\nDan actually had to talk me into it!\n\nI (like most people, I&#8217;m sure. YOU are not alone!) don&#8217;t give myself enough credit. I didn&#8217;t think I could do it, I didn&#8217;t think I&#8217;d be successful. I really really needed an outlet, someplace I could put in effort and see results. Someplace where I felt like I was doing good for the world. (Remember all that cleaning and diaper changing? I needed to do something for ME.)\n\nAfter a lot of talking, I purchased my domain and dove into the blogging world head first.\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-8669\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-With-Karli-VIII-694x460.jpg\" alt=\"Chicken Lo Mein\" width=\"694\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-With-Karli-VIII-694x460.jpg 694w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-With-Karli-VIII-441x292.jpg 441w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-With-Karli-VIII-768x509.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-With-Karli-VIII-735x487.jpg 735w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-With-Karli-VIII.jpg 1087w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 694px) 100vw, 694px\" \/>\n<h2>How long have you been a Mediavine publisher? How did you first hear about us? What drew you to Mediavine as a partner for display advertising?<\/h2>\nI purchased my domain on Feb 8, 2018. Mediavine ads were placed on my site on March 26, 2018.\n\nWhen I started blogging, a former neighbor, friend and fellow blogger reached out and I asked her how I could monetize my blog at some point and she pointed me in Mediavine&#8217;s direction.\n<h2>Describe your experience with Mediavine. What do you love about working with us?<\/h2>\nI have had nothing but positive experiences working with Mediavine!\n\nEveryone is so helpful, kind and I do happen to be a GIF lover, so really, it was a match made in heaven.\n<h2>How has your Mediavine ad revenue changed your life for the better?<\/h2>\nHow has my Mediavine ad revenue NOT changed my life? Seriously, my ad revenue (in Dan&#8217;s words) is SUCH A GAME CHANGER!\n\nOne year ago we were in student loans up to our eyeballs, because of Mediavine&#8217;s ad revenue we are able to double our monthly student loan payment, purchase a new car for my husband (in cash!), book a trip to Disney for my family and are putting the dolla dolla bills into savings for a down payment for our (hopefully soon) future first home.\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-8673\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-With-Karli-VII-694x460.jpg\" alt=\"Chocolate Cake\" width=\"694\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-With-Karli-VII-694x460.jpg 694w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-With-Karli-VII-441x292.jpg 441w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-With-Karli-VII-768x509.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-With-Karli-VII-735x487.jpg 735w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-With-Karli-VII.jpg 1087w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 694px) 100vw, 694px\" \/>\n<h2>How do you think the blogging industry has changed since you started your website?<\/h2>\nI don&#8217;t think it has changed too much, considering I did start just 10 months ago. \ud83d\ude09\n<h2>What are the best and worst parts of blogging for you?<\/h2>\n<strong>The best parts:<\/strong> Connecting with other bloggers.

(eg. traffic growth, sponsored work, etc.)<\/h2>\nI would have to say overall growth.

For a really long time, Facebook was my #1 source of traffic. I find that the posts that do well on Facebook initially drive traffic to my site where users Pin the recipe to save for later.\n\nThe large number of people pinning the same recipe at the same time alerts Pinterest&#8217;s algorithm to show it to more people. Then Pinterest drives comments which Google likes, etc. I call it the Trifecta. \ud83d\ude42\n\nI&#8217;ve finally switched and am not so reliant on Facebook (thank the heavens!) and Pinterest brings me great traffic.\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-8674\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-With-Karli-II-694x460.jpg\" alt=\"Cheesecake\" width=\"694\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-With-Karli-II-694x460.jpg 694w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-With-Karli-II-441x292.jpg 441w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-With-Karli-II-768x509.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-With-Karli-II-735x487.jpg 735w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Cooking-With-Karli-II.jpg 1087w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 694px) 100vw, 694px\" \/>\n<h2>Do you have any advice for bloggers on how to grow their traffic?<\/h2>\nHead down and work hard.
