The best blogging concepts you should be using

There are lots of good ways to identify popular blogging concepts. The infographic offers some key information that might be of use. We’re also going to offer some advice within this short post. You’ll never become a professional blogger if you don’t write about the right subjects. Hopefully, the information on this page will point you in the right direction.

Reviews

Reviews are always popular blogging concepts. Maybe you use a certain type of product and manufacturers have released something new? Perhaps you run a music site, and you want to promote original bands? Either way, publishing reviews will help your blog to get noticed.

Breaking News

Breaking news usually works well if you can publish a post quickly. You just have to remember that lots of other people are doing the same thing. If you can publish a post and share it on Facebook before other bloggers, it could drive a lot of traffic to your website.

Interviews

Interviewing a famous person for your blog is a fantastic move. Publishing a video alongside your article is even better. People will visit your blog because they are familiar with the celebrity. So, you can use their fame to promote your interests.

All bloggers should use those concepts on a weekly basis. You should fit those articles in alongside the other topics on your website. At the end of the day, you need a lot of traffic if you want to make a living from advertising. So, you should aim to write articles people want to read.

Business Blogging: 9 Things I Wish I’d Known When I Started Out

Two years ago I decided I wanted to earn a living online. It was the only type of business flexible enough to fit around my chaotic family!

Back in 2009 I didn’t really know how to earn good money on the internet, so starting a blog was my way of diving into this world, getting to know people and learning as I went along. Back then my blog was hosted by WordPress and I moved over to businessplusbaby.com in July 2009.

I’ve learned so much in the last two years (copywriting, search engine optimisation, getting published, social media, internet marketing…), I’ve written a book, I’ve got to know some amazing people, I’m a regular writer at My Family magazine and next week I launch my first e-course, Earn What You Deserve as Mumpreneur. Oh and I had a baby! It’s been quite a journey.

So if you’re starting your online business or hoping to make a decent income from your blog, here’s what I wish I’d known back in May 2009… Continue reading “Business Blogging: 9 Things I Wish I’d Known When I Started Out”
