- Ezoic – (10,000+ monthly sessions req) Great for food bloggers wanting to try out monetising their site but haven’t reached the minimums for Mediavine or AdThrive.
- Mediavine – (50,000+ monthly sessions req) Very popular amongst food bloggers.
- Raptive – (100,000+ monthly pageviews req) Great for larger blogs, Raptive (formerly AdThrive) works especially well for those with majority US traffic. We’ve been with AdThrive now for 5 years, and have loved the transition from Mediavine.

Key Takeaways from Other Food Bloggers
Don’t get frustrated when things don’t happen overnight – blogging is a long-term game, and you must be patient! Also – get started earlier. I don’t believe in having regrets, but it can be difficult to not wonder why I didn’t start a blog years ago when I first thought of it!

My biggest traffic referrer is Google. Even with nearly 700K followers on Facebook, 100K on Instagram, I would say that 80% of my blog traffic comes from Google.

I finally started really asking myself why I was doing certain things and if they were serving my goals for my business. For instance, I used to be obsessed with keeping my Instagram feed looking beautiful and curated. Why? Because that’s what everyone would say you needed to do to be successful and have a lot of followers. It really stressed me out, because photography is not my passion and I just don’t want to spend a lot of my limited time focusing on taking images.

(On going full time) My BFF told me “if it was a good decision for your family at the time, it’s still a good decision for your family.” If you’ve put thought into your decision, there was a reason for it. Trust your gut, don’t burn any bridges on your way out of your former job, and take the plunge.
