Hello Everyone!

Welcome to Holiday Startup once again.

Do you like travelling?

May be yet or may be no.

In my case, I did not enjoy travelling while I was a student.

I did not want to go outside or far from home.

I did fear about a lot of things.

But now I am 32 years old.

Surprisingly I started enjoying travelling.

Now I travel a lot.

Whenever I get a chance of travelling, I instantly catch that.

I enjoy travelling very much.

Recently I travelled in Kashmir (Jammu & Kashmir of India Side).

I started a blog based on my Kashmir travel experience.

My blog name is Journey Kashmir.

If you are interested to learn things about Kashmir, you can visit the site.

Let’s focus on main topic.

Do you think travelling is a good topic?

I think yes.

Ok.

Do you know where is Atlanta?

If you are not an US person or familiar with North American Map,

Chances are high that you don’t know where is Atlanta.

But you may have heard of the name.

Interesting story is that, someone has created a blog based on Atlanta.

And, the blog is listed for sale at 1.2 Million USD!

Are you surprised?

Let’s deep dive into the full story.

The Story of 365 ATLANTA TRAVELER

Lesli was a product manager in a company.

She was happy with her career.

After she gave birth to two boys.

She did feel that she wants to travel more with her two boys.

So, she quit her job as a product manager and started travelling with her family.

Her family consists of four members.

Dan, Lesli, Cooper & Elliot.

At the same time, she also started a blog to write about her experience.

The blog name is: 365 ATLANTA TRAVELER

Blog link is: https://365atlantatraveler.com/

This is a very simple website.

Lesli started writing in her website.

The website contains only her written articles.

Nothing special.

Initially, nothing happened.

Then some visitors started coming in.

Then there was more visitors.

And today, this blog makes nearly from USD 14000-20000 per month.

Now she and her family decided to sell the blog or website.

And, she listed the blog for 1.2m USD in a marketplace.

Lessons from this Story

First, Try or focus on smallest market that has a demand. You don’t need to target everyone. In their case they targeted only Atlanta travel market, which is extremely small. Then they expanded in other cities.

Second, SEO works well. Don’t worry about AI or Google Updates or something like that. You may get your SEO results in 24 months.

Third, Social Media presence is highly important for blogs. You should not depend on only one traffic source. In their case, they had very good number of traffic from Facebook and Instagram.

So, again my question to you,

Do you like travelling?

Don’t you think you can make a travelling blog like this?

Let’s know when you are going to start!
