For this episode of the Food Blogger Pro podcast, we’re taking with Hilah Johnson and Chris Sharpe from the YouTube channel and food blog Hilah Cooking.

But just a few years later, Chris and Hilah are a very successful and popular team in the Youtube video industry. They joined Bjork on the Food Blogger Pro podcast to talk all about their journey to YouTube success.

Today on the Food Blogger Pro podcast, we’re turning up the heat (pun intended) as we talk about some tech-geek stuff with Dr. David Darmanin from HotJar.

If you haven’t implemented HotJar on your site yet, you most likely just haven’t heard of it yet. What Google Analytics can’t do for you (or does with way too many details), HotJar makes as simple and beautiful as you can imagine. Dr. David Darmanin, the founder and CEO of HotJar, worked for years as a professional conversion expert and as a user experience (UX) designer for websites. When you put those two skills together, you get a tool that is so easy to use your grandmother could do it, and that is so good at converting your visitors into customers or subscribers that you’ll wonder how you ever survived without it.
