Favourite UK Money Bloggers

I am a UK Money Blogger. I write about financial freedom and offer guidance and tips based on personal experience to help others. To add into the mix, I write about healthy wealth, body and mind. I 100% believe that the three subjects are inextricably linked and affect each other greatly. BUT if we could have contentment in all three areas then we would be happy. I understand that its challenge to be happy in all three areas but its possible right? I am working my way towards it and want to share my story.

My Favourite UK Money Bloggers and Why You Should Read their blogs

 

I am part of a community of UK money bloggers. They are my colleagues and my friends. We talk every day. We inspire each other, collaborate and share each other’s content. We all have a slightly different niche, some are frugal, some are mummies, some are investment specialists, some are bargain hunters, some are foodies, some are students. I love the mixture of skills and whenever I have any questions there are plenty of experts to help.




Here is my thank you to my favourite UK Money Bloggers and why you should go read their wonderful websites.

Emma Drew

I must start with Emma Drew, being the first blogger whom I ever met IN PERSON. We met at an Easter chocolate tasting event maybe 2 ½ years ago. She is one of the original money bloggers of famedom, one whom I had read regularly before meeting. We nowtalk most days (every day??!!) about anything and everything from motivation to commercials to technical and collaborations. She helps me, and I help her. It’s a great partnership. Go read her blog.

Ive gone for the willow filter as i drove through Prickwillow today on my way to see this ones new office🤣😂 Not just one office but two, with a corridor and kitchen. Very lovely @emmadrewinfo. You worked hard and look what happens❤ No pictures of @aldiuk cushions i delivered…sorry. Been a crazy day. My mind is numbed. Hospital with Dylan, leg signed off. Then drove to Royston for a two hour work blast in mcdonalds. Onto Newmarket for counselling. Then onto Ely to see Ems and Tony. Time flew before we realised it was 6pm and i dashed home for football. 1 crazy month of Emma/Lynn lives downloaded in 90 mins. We needed mucho water from talking so much❤ Now home to a full moon release. And breath. #gratitude to @bobbrotchie for opening a few boxes that needed to be reopened. #3positivethings 1) loved our life download Ems 2) listened to entire white album today. Brilliant yet strange in places. Working my way through them all. 3) spent alot of time listening today as advised earlier on. . . . . . . . . #fullmoon #release #longday #friendsarefamily #emmadrew #officespace #willow #prickwillow #ely #cambs #cambridgeshire #counselling #lifechoices #lifebox #openthebox #loa #workingfrommcdonalds #listening #officegoals #entreprenure #sme #businessstrategy #changingtheworld #lawofattraction #karma #whatgoesaroundcomesaround #bbff #mondaymoney

Emma is queen of money making (and has helped me make a shed load of cash, when I most needed it during 2016). She runs a fab coaching program called My Blog My Business. If you want help starting a blog she is your woman. Also, she taught me EVERYTHING I know about affiliate marketing and can teach you the same on this course. Shhh secret Mrs Mummypenny discount included in the link.

Kirsty Holden of the Money Saving Mum

Kirsty and I met early 2018. She was new to the UK Money Blogger scene and reached out to me via a 1-2-1 coaching program I was trying out. We talked for 45 mins about her blog and social media and how she could make more money and how she could give up her day job that she hated.




Roll on August and she has done just that. After that coaching session Kirsty worked out her calling and has set up as a VA to bloggers and small business. Helping with anything they need, SEO, images, Pinterest, website admin, audits, improvement to website, social media management, editing, newsletters. And she does a grand job helping me out with all these things. Let’s talk results…my natural search views have increased by 40% from the quarter before Kirsty started compared to the quarter afterwards. The best thing is weight lifted from my shoulders with the extra help she gives me meaning I have more time to focus on creating brilliant content and negotiating exciting projects and campaigns. If you need help check out Kirsty’s Better your blog site.

Check out her YouTube channel. She is really very good at vlogging and edits my vlogs too😉

Faith Archer – Much More with Less

I got to properly meet Faith at an Experian event in the summer of 2016, we got to eat beautiful food and drink beautiful wine and discuss making big next steps with Experian at the top of the Gherkin. It was a lovely event and prompted me to get going with the writing of my first book Blogging Your Way to Riches.

Faith is a journalist and blogger and very successfully combines the two. She writes personal finance content for newspapers and magazines and writes her very successful blog Much More with Less.

Flashback to last weekend. I was at the UK Money blogger conference and was on this panel discussing savings (or the inability to save) with @muchmore_less, James from Vanguard and 7 circles. I’m all about the teeth😁 Do you have savings? Do you save? Or do your current circumstances limit you? #grateful today for a great game of football. Dylan played Norwich. Won 12-5. Dj scored 2 including an incredible volley. #3positivethings 1) whizzed around Aldi for our weekly shop in 30 mins in and out. With 3 boys in tow. 2) had a lovely relaxing #olverum bath 3) was needing some Pinterest guidance. I was offered it today from a total expert. . . . . . . . #lawofattraction #loa #gratitude #dailygratitude #thankful #positivity #lawofattractionquote #moneysaving #frugal #ukblogger #ukbloggerlife #ukmoneyblogger #bloggingyourwaytoriches #shomos #savings #notsaving #cambridgeunitedacademy #cuyd #academyfootball #pinterest #sundayrest #panelguest

She has been ever so giving of knowledge with me both personally with my debt and budgeting and professionally, proof reading important pieces of work and offering general commercial and moral guidance. She writes beautifully about some of the dullest finance topics but keeps me reading until the end. Quite a talent.

Damien Fahy – Money to the Masses

I remember first meeting Damien at a money blogger event. He was funny, didn’t take finance too seriously, and had a powerful mission and reason for starting his website. Damien used to work in the city (as did I!), and was on the other side, working in banking, making lots of money making rich people even richer.

Had to be done in victoria for our breakfast meeting today. @moneytothemasses Damien surrounded by insta flowers🤣😂🤣 Hows your Friday? Describe it in 3 words? . . . . . #flowers #victoria #startthedayright #breakfastmeeting #fabulousfriday

He knew there was more to life and set up his website which he worked on every evening after work. The website was built it to a point, or saved enough money, to quit his job and follow his dream of bring money to the masses not just money to the rich folk.



He writes about financial planning, pensions, investment with clarity and humour. His content is real and balanced, and it is my go to website when researching investment/ pension brands and products.  And he gives great advice and guidance when needed, with sarcasm and humour!

Emma Bradley

Emma is my co-author and partner in crime for Blogging Your Way to Riches. We met at the 2016 UK Money Blogger SHOMO’s conference and bonded over shared goals with our family friendly websites and us both having boys called Dylan!

Oh look another Insta friendly picture from #xmasjulyfest last week. I look totes professional with my posh camera as a necklace. Also I look like I’ve been smiling a tad too much for one day😁😁😁 . . . #christmasinjuly #purpleflowers #instaflower #selfie #instaselfie #ellia #bloggingyourwaytoriches #bloggers #ukbloggerlife #elliascent #elliadome #bloggermates #cowriters #partnersincrime

The very next day we had messaged and agreed to write a book together. Yep, you must go with the gut, and gut said go for it. Two months later we had written and self-published a book. That has done rather well!!

Emma educated me on the real world of blogging, having done it for many more years than me. Emma is one of the original mummy bloggers with her site Emmaand3. Her knowledge and introduction have been invaluable, and I am forever grateful.

Maria Nedeva – The Money Principle

Maria is unique. A woman whom speaks her mind and isn’t afraid to disagree. She is incredible and such an inspiration. I recently interviewed her on the Mrs Mummypenny Talks podcast and learnt so much new information about her. She is an incredibly well-educated woman who (in my view also) believes that education propels you forward in life. She has made a few mistakes but has made bigger successes learning from those mistakes. And she will set up an incredible foundation giving back to the world she has lived in. inspirational indeed.

She run two websites, the Money Principle is the main blog where you can read all sort of brilliant content from how she repaid her £100k of consumer debt to how she has invested in small business and made a fabulous return.

Emma Maslin – The Money Whisperer

Emma is more of newbie blogger, but has such a similar background to me, we were destined to be blogger friends. A fellow accountant with a professional background and mummy to young children. Emma knows her stuff and can write brilliantly, missing up more in-depth financial writing about planning, pensions and investments to holidays, days out with kids and money saving tips. Go read the Money Whisperer.

We chat every now and again about blogging woes. She has helped me out with advice after a particularly difficult client and when I had a very nasty troll attack me. The advice and rationalisation was essential to me coping with both situations and I will always appreciate the time taken to speak to me.
