The lovely Chantelle from Fat Mum Slim recently gave me a copy of her e-book Let’s Give Them Something To Blog About. I’ll admit, I’d seen it on her blog and was curious as to what it contained, so I was delighted to find a copy in my inbox one day. Here’s what it covers…

Let's Give Them Something To Talk About

What is Let’s Give Them Something To Talk About?

A delightful, 18-page e-book (PDF document), brimming with post ideas (40 to be exact) for the “uninspired blogger”.

Who’s Chantelle Ellem?

Chantelle’s an Australian mummy blogger who’s been blogging for two years. She started her blog Fat Mum Slim to give her something to do while feeding her then-newborn daughter. Since then, her blog’s traffic has grown to 2,500 visits per day. And it’s because of her blog she’s recently been appointed the editor of Birth.com.au and the social editor of KidSpot. Chantelle has also written a guest post for TBS on some of her favourite mummy blogs.

What if you’re not a mummy blogger – can you still learn from her book?

Yes! E-books are a popular way for bloggers to make money from their blogs. So if you’re considering writing one of your own, Chantelle’s e-book is a great example of the content, length and quality readers expect when handing over money for information.

The highlight of the book?

I particularly loved Chantelle’s tips for writing a blog’s “about page”. She says: “An about page to me is like peaking inside someone’s bathroom cabinet, underwear drawer or fridge… so be captivating, brief (but not too brief), sassy, and above all – interesting“. Couldn’t have said it better myself!

The cost?

A teeny-tiny $7.95 (Aus) with 10% going to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. Buy your copy here.
