Linda Bustos The Girl Behind Get Elastic

Today’s interview is with Linda Bustos from Get Elastic. Linda is a wonderful and cheerful blogger who has done an exceptional job to grow Get Elastic’s blog with over 10,000 readers. She provides excellent tips on ecommerce and is an expert media analyst who knows how to engage readers through social media. Linda has also been named one of Vancouver’s Tech Women to Watch, placed #25 of the Top 100 Influential Marketers of the year and was the winner of Marketing Pilgrim’s SEM Scholarship for the article 8 Stupid Things Webmasters Do to Mess Up Their Analytics.

Furthermore, Get Elastic is also recognized by the Wall Street Journal as one of 15 entrepreneur blogs worth reading and ranks on the AdAge Power 150. I wanted to interview Linda because I wanted to find out how she grew the blog starting from a few hundred readers to over 10,000 readers a day in a short space of 2 years. Not only does she have a great readership, Linda is a true expert using her blog to market through social media networks.

In this interview you will learn..

  • How Linda went from working in a retail store to full time blogging
  • The power of using social media to build her RSS readers from 200 subscribers to over 10,000 subscribers in a short 2 years
  • Why being transparent is crucial to your blogging success
  • Linda’s top 3 tips in becoming a successful blogger

Linda is very down to earth and if you are looking to learn from an expert in e-commerce, I would recommend you speak to her.

Enjoy the podcast!
