In the past few weeks, I have met with a couple of people who desire to start a food blog and make money out of it.
Each time someone talks to me about blogging and showing readers how to cook, or how to decorate cakes, I think of my friends at PinchOfYum.
The simple reason is that these food bloggers have succeeded in creating an awesome food blog that generates thousands of dollars every month.
After the huge success, Lindsay and Bjork Ostrom (owners and bloggers at PinchOfYum) decided to create an in-depth course of over 300 easy-to-understand how-to videos, teaching you how to create a money making food blog.
Food Blogger Pro is a complete course for newbies and intermediate bloggers who want to create a food blog, drive traffic and make money.
While this course is targeted at food bloggers, it covers everything you need to create a successful blog. The authors didn’t jump straight to food. They started by helping you lay a solid blogging foundation.

2 -> marking money with Affiliate Marketing!
One of the ways to make money online as a blogger is Affiliate Marketing. But many bloggers fail in this area because they think all it requires is pasting banners on sidebars.
The authors of Food Blogger Pro make a lot of money with Affiliate Marketing as food bloggers. On the platform, you get to learn Affiliate Marketing from two stand points;
- As product creator!
Once they teach you how to create ebooks and sell for profit, you are taught how to recruit affiliates to help promote and drive targeted traffic to your product page. This helps generate more sales and profit.
There are many affiliate marketing platforms out there but which is most suitable for your ebooks?. What are their requirements and how to you get started?
Lindsay and Bjork Ostrom have gone through all of these steps and from their experience, they will walk you through both easy and difficult steps.
- As a food blogger!
Is doing affiliate marketing as a food blogger easy?
The answer is no!
However, once you’ve identified the points, generating consistent income can be very exciting and easy going.
As a food blogger, which products do you promote? Where do you find those products and how do you promote them?
All these and more questions are answered by Food Blogger Pro training program. The food industry is massive with lots of products to promote and earn commissions. From bags for food delivery to an unlimited number of kitchen items
Some other money money making topics treated in this course are freelancing, sponsored contents, Google Adsense, BlogHer Advertising Network, etc!
Driving targeted traffic to your food blog!
Once your food blog is live with content being published, you’ll need to drive targeted traffic to your posts.
As a beginner, this can be a very daunting task. One of the reasons people fail in online business is lack of targeted income.
Note that not all traffic to your blog can help you generate traffic. That’s why I emphasize on targeted traffic because that’s where the conversion rate is worth the investment.
Lindsay and Bjork Ostrom are very successful in driving targeted traffic to their food blog and that’s one of the reasons that blog generates income for them.
NB: Below is traffic report for one month!
According to the September 2015 PinchOfYum Traffic report (figure above), there is every reason to believe that this couple (Lindsay and Bjork Ostrom) is doing a great traffic job and listening to them cannot be a mistake. In Food Blogger Pro, they share their tips, tricks and tools to drive this kind of traffic from Search engines, social medial, emails, etc.
The course on generating traffic has about 33 videos dedicated to teaching you how to drive crazy targeted traffic to your food blog. These are split into three sections;
- Food sharing sites: In this section (5 videos), you will discover sites where you can share your food pictures and draw traffic to your blog. These videos give you details about what to and what not to do to be accepted on these sites.
- SEO for food blogs: Section two (in 17 videos) covers everything about driving natural traffic to your food blog.
- Quick and Easy Traffic tips: This section, in 11 videos covers some quick and easy tips to help get things moving in the right direction. Some very exciting result-driving methods shared here.
Your Food Blog And social Media!
One of the ways to quickly grow your food blog is being active on social media. However, if care is not taken, you can woefully fail.
In about 57 videos, Food Blogger Pro shows you details how to use three main social media platforms and get the kind of traffic that attracts income.
Note that not every social media platform will work for your food blog. Facebook of course is a huge social media platform.
However, there are 2 other social media platforms that do even better. In 45 video courses, you will be drilled on how to use these other two social media platforms for exceptional traffic and engagement.
The Nutrition Label Generator!
One of the amazing tools on Food Blogger Pro is The Nutrition Label Generator used to generate nutrition facts labels. This tool is easy to use,accurate and value adding.
How accurate is the Food Blogger Pro Nutrition Label Generator?
That’s a good question and I can understand why people worry about accuracy. The fact is, Food Blogger Pro’s Nutrition Label Generator uses an API that connects to a pre-existing database of nutrition information. That means Lindsay and Bjork don’t enter the information in the system.
In order to assure quality, their system connects to a database used by other reputable food companies including Whole Foods, Epicurious, and The Daily Meal. The information you get is therefore accurate and updated on frequent basis.
Food Blogger Pro Review – Is it expensive ?
The quick answer is NO!
At the moment of writing this post, the price for this awesome training platform stands at $29/mo. What you get for this is amazing;
- Over 300 videos,
- Access to premium niche forum,

Conclusion!

Other areas/tools covered in the course include;
Giveaways, Hotjar, FTPs, url shorteners, mailchimp, Google Search Console, Google Alerts, Google Analytics, using your DSLR camera, Natural lighting for food photography, Artificial lighting for food photography, editing photos with Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop, etc.
