Once you’ve done the technical part of setting up your new blog, the next step is to start posting.
Posts are the life blood of starting any blog. And I see too many new bloggers give up too soon.
The best way to overcome an early exit is to plan out 10-20 posts that you want to write. And get writing. Because once you have written these posts, you will have felt that you have invested your time and energy into your blog and won’t want to give up.
Don’t be checking stats, playing around with your blog’s design, or spending your time on social media. Focus on getting posts published.
All of the first blog post ideas below can be catered to the topic of your blog.
Unique and Creative Blog Post Ideas
1. Create a post showing a personal behind the scenes look of your blog and or something related to your blog. If you are a photography blogger then show your camera set up, how you organize your closet if you are a fashion blogger, or show off your kitchen if you are a food blogger
2. What’s in your.. (camera photography bag, makeup bag, closet, kitchen, travel bag, on your desk)
3. Do an Interview on the subject of your blog, starting with close friends and family
4. Share a list of goals (related to your blog) that you have for the next 6 months
