204: 6 ‘Ordinary’ Things That Will Grow Your Blog into Something Extraordinary - a podcast by Darren Rowse: Blogger, Speaker, Author and Online Entrepreneur

How Ordinary Things Can Lead to Extraordinary Results With Your Blog
This week and I’m excited to be spending time face to face with quite a few ProBlogger podcast listeners and blog readers at our Aussie blogging events.

We’ve been holding annual Australian events since 2010 and it is a highlight of my year each time. It’s fantastic to put faces to names, hear the stories of what bloggers are learning and to get inspired by meeting many of you.So because I’m away this week and busy with the event I thought it might be fun to give you a taste of what happens at a ProBlogger event and to play you a talk I gave at one of our events a few years ago.



So for today’s episode (#204) I’m going to play you a full opening keynote talk that I gave in 2014.It’s a talk I gave which explores how doing ordinary things consistently over time leads to extraordinary results in blogging.

Often bloggers look for the'secret'strategies that will launch their blog into a viral success. However the reality is that most successful bloggers spend more time on small, ordinary things - it's these things that really lead to success.

In this talk I outlined 6 of these ‘ordinary things’.This is a talk I hear attendees referring to quite a bit - so I hope you enjoy it too.

This week, I'm really excited because I'm spending time face to face with quite a few ProBlogger podcast listeners and ProBlogger blog readers at our Australian blogging events. We’ve got two events this year, Melbourne and Brisbane, and they're going on pretty much as this podcast goes out. We've been holding these events since 2010 and it is the highlight of my year every year because I get to put names to faces, hear stories of bloggers and what they're learning, and see the growth in our attendees from year to year as well. I always come home inspired although a bit tired from these events as well.

Because I'm away this week and not at my office, and not able to record too much in terms of a podcast, I thought it might be fun to give you a taste of what happens at the ProBlogger event. I'm going to play you a keynote presentation I gave at one of our events a few years ago. It's actually completely relevant for today and hopefully, you find some inspiration in it as well.

This episode, episode 204, I'm going to play you the full opening keynote of the talk I gave in 2014, three years ago now. It's a talk in which I explore how doing ordinary things, consistently over time, leads to extraordinary results. Often, bloggers come to ProBlogger and I get emails all the time and people will say,"What is the secret strategy, what’s the secret sauce that's going to launch my blog into being a viral success?"The reality is that it's not the secret strategies that tend to lead to that viral success. It's some of the smaller ordinary things.

In this talk, I shared six ordinary things that are going to help you to build something quite extraordinary. This is a talk I actually get a lot of feedback from,
