Getting Started
You have come to this website because you need help with getting a blog started. Where do you start ? First you must come up with an idea. Come up with a “niche”. A niche is a specific topic that you will blog about. For example you may decide to blog about Electronics. This is not a good idea ? Why ? Its because it is too broad. There would be too much to cover. Your niche has to be specific, for instance Digital Cameras, DVD Players, HDTV, etc… You get the point.
When choosing a topic also, you may want to also consider how popular the topic is. You may want to do a quick search on the search engines to determine what kind if someone else and how many people already are blogging about your niche. You may want to search for Digital Camera Blogs, you will see the search results and the number of hits. Its 21.3 million hits for Digital Camera Blogs, by the way. That is your competition. You may want to narrow your niche down to Digital Camera Lens Blog. There are 2.87 million its for that search, much smaller but still alot of competition.
Im not trying to discourage you but you really have to think about a topic and do your research. But if you think you have an idea that will work give it a try ! But dont just pick a topic because of the competition. Pick a topic you are passionate about and that you know really well. Blogging is essentially to show how much of an expert you are to a topic.
Are you ready ? You have an idea ? Continue you on and we will help with setting up your blog.
