Margaret Bourne
Blog Coach — Personal Branding & Online Presence Coaching
Struggling to grow your blog, or to show up consistently as a personal brand online? You don’t have to figure out every channel alone. I’m Margaret Bourne — a blog coach who also coaches on personal branding and online presence, backed by 20+ years in digital marketing and PR, including 15+ years spent building and monetizing my own blogs.
I take a 360° approach — content, SEO, Pinterest, sales, and staying visible — so the pieces work together instead of feeling like separate to-do lists. Want a fast diagnostic instead of ongoing coaching? A blog or channel audit shows you what to fix first. Prefer to go it alone? My self-paced courses, ebooks, and templates in the Confident Blogger Academy offer the same strategies without the 1:1 coaching budget. Learn more…

As Seen In:
“Her coaching is gold!”
One frustrated late-night Google search for a blog coach led me to Margaret, and boom — four months later, my blog’s making passive income and I actually feel like I know what I’m doing.
Her coaching is gold, her Facebook group is the only one I want to check, and her post-session notes are like little branding love letters to your business. She’s smart, practical, and somehow always one step ahead.
