Get the proven strategies that will help you gain readers, rank high in Google, and make money online
In a world awash with blogs, Youtube channels, Instagram accounts, and “influencers,” it can seem like you’ve missed the boat on starting an online business. How will you get heard above the noise? How will you make money? Will anyone read what you write?
These are common worries.
But let me tell you: you didn’t miss any boat. There’s always room for great content and unique creators.
My name is Matthew Kepnes (a.k.a. Nomadic Matt) and I’ve been running the website Nomadic Matt since 2008. Over the last fourteen years, my website has become one of the top travel blogs in the world, with over 1.3 million visitors per month, a 300,000+ person email list, five employees, and seven figures in revenue. I’ve written two books (one a New York Times bestseller) and my advice has been featured in numerous publications, including:
But it wasn’t always like this.
When I started my blog, I had no background in writing, web design, or marketing. I couldn’t code and was lost in a sea of information. I just knew I liked to travel and wanted to find a way to share that passion with the world while also getting paid.
Through this journey, I’ve learned that success requires more than just information.
I know how frustrating this can be to do on your own, wondering if what you are doing is right. I wasted lots of time (and money) because I had no one with experience say to me, “That’s not right. Do this instead.”
And that’s what you get when you join this course: someone to show you what works. Superstar Blogging gives you behind the scenes access to my processes, analytics, marketing hacks, SEO strategies, monetization tips, and everything in between.
Taught over 8 modules and 26 lessons, you get everything I know on how to succeed with a blog. It will lay out the correct path so you can rank higher in Google, grow your readers, and make a living doing what you love.
What Our Students Are Saying
“Superstar Blogging was the perfect program to learn the fundamentals of building a functioning blog. Before taking this program, things like coding and SEO terrified me! Now, I have hundreds of readers a month, after launching my site only two months ago! Thanks, Matt!” – Stacia, stumblesafari.com

“Though I’ve been blogging for 5+ years, I still found Matt’s program extremely beneficial. It helped me to rethink my strategy and come up with a more long-term and sustainable business model. Even as an established travel blogger, this program was useful because it helped to change my mindset and taught me advanced tactics I didn’t know. The information he shares is required to run a successful blog and business in today’s climate.” – Jeremy, travelfreak.net

“I’ve tried other create-your-online-business courses (one was even six times the price of Superstar Blogging) and they never worked. This program works because Matt has been through it firsthand and knows how the travel blogging business truly works. He doesn’t fluff things up to market to you and is honest about how much work it takes. AND he’s not lying when he says he’ll actually respond to emails!” – Trang, travelwithtrang.com

“When I signed up for this program, I had no experience with WordPress, web design, writing, email, or social media marketing. I felt so overwhelmed and discouraged. How could I compete in the sea of travel blogs? But, on my launch date, I received almost 400 website visits, far more than I expected. In addition, this program will walk you through the technical side of creating a blog and providing information you won’t find anywhere online. If you’re serious about creating a profitable travel blog, then Superstar Blogging is a must.” – Somto, somtoseeks.com

“Before Matt’s program, I was determined to figure it all out on my own. I didn’t want to fall victim to just another blogging course trying to sell me things I could find for free on Google. The frustration started reaching new levels after digging through dozens of unhelpful websites just to find myself back at square one every single time I had a question. I knew I needed actual help with my site. After week one, I knew I got my money’s worth. By the time I finished the program, I finally started making money from my website!”

“I purchased this program because I realized I had no idea what I was doing and needed guidance. Since then, I have used the advice from Superstar Blogging to reach a larger audience. I have been featured on local news outlets and will be in two podcasts in the upcoming months due to the advice I learned here. I also earned my first money using affiliate marketing this month and have been contacted by two websites asking if they can feature my blog. I didn’t really have a direction at first and now I’m starting to get traction after four months! The response has been better than I expected due to the help I got through Superstar Blogging.” – Rachel, amaptoanywhere.com
