Web Entrepreneur Takes Side Business Modest Money to the Next Level with Re-Design and Employee Hiring
Burnaby, BC, Canada (PRWEB) July 17, 2013 -- What started as a hobby is quickly turning into a full on business for financial blogger Jeremy Biberdorf. Back in January 2012, Jeremy started a personal finance blog partly as a way to make a bit of side income, but also to help improve his own financial habits.
A year and a half later and his blog ModestMoney.com is making huge strides. Due to the tremendous popularity, he decided to pay to get his blog professionally redesigned. It seemed to be a crucial move to be taken more seriously and continue the rapid success of the blog.
Modest Money is a personal finance blog that tackles all kinds of financial topics - everything from credit card advice to home buying experiences to dealing with student debt. While one of Jeremy's original goals with the blog was to improve his own finances, he is now focusing on helping as many people as he can by educating them about how to better manage their money.
As a fairly new blog, Modest Money also has a weekly feature about blogging tips. This series is ideal for anyone that is considering starting a blog. Basically it's a way to give back to the blogging community that initially embraced Jeremy as he started on his blogging journey.
Another way that Jeremy has helped give back to the blogging community is by hosting polls to determine the top Canadian finance blogs. These polls provide great exposure for other blogs and creates some solid interaction with those bloggers. It's always interesting to see which blogs get the most votes.
Now that Modest Money is well established, the next phase is to start reviewing more financial products and services, such as a Discover It Card review and an eTrade review. With the level of trust built up, readers will be able to rely on Modest Money to give them honest, unbiased information about these different products and services. Already Jeremy has reviewed some of the best credit cards online, but that is just the tip of the iceberg. The plan is to dig deeply into a wide variety of financial products to help consumers.
Jeremy Biberdorf's financial blog has grown so much that he currently has a small team of employees including staff writers, a marketing department and even a personal assistant. With that kind of team, Jeremy is able to continue working a separate daytime job. Meanwhile his business keeps growing. Someday it might turn into a full time job.
