Blogs-What should you be blogging about?
Written by Debbie on Monday, January 4th, 2010 in You Can Do It.
Have you been considering a blog? Have you asked yourself, what do I blog about? Well, some of the first questions you should ask yourself are:
- What are things I’m interested in?
- What do I enjoy doing?
- Is there something I want to learn?
- Can I help others?
Once you have answered the questions above, you then research online for any information that may help you. You can find blogs on every topic. There are even forum discussion groups where people join to share their views. Join a couple of these groups and follow along to see what questions are being asked and what is being talked about to help you with ideas on what you can blog about.
Your next step is getting a place to blog. There are free blogs places out there like Blogger, but they offer limited features. My suggestions is to learn about WordPress, register a catchy domain name and setup a wordpress site that you can blog on. With all the latest technology, WordPress is a bloggers dream software and there are many blog templates called themes that will spice of your blog site. In addition to the wp themes there are many many plug-ins that can be installed to further enhance your blog. If all this sounds confusing, then you can hire someone to register a domain name for you, setup hosting and install WordPress.
