Start your Blog In a Few Easy Steps

Let’s start with choosing your blog niche. How to Choose Your Blog’s Niche? You probably have heard that go with your passion. That’s true, but that is a partial truth. There are people who write for years and couldn’t earn. So, they eventually quit.

You should make your strategy in a way that you start your blog, keeping in mind that you have to make it a business. To do so, choose your niche on the basis of keyword research, professional leverage, and audience revenue potential.

Consequently, when you are about to start a new blog, focus on your audience instead of you. Don’t ask that “what is my niche” but rather, your focus should be your audience and what are the pain points that you probably will solve.

Yes, you need to solve a pain point that a group of audience is concerned about and willing to spend money on so that you can make money from your blog.

Being a blogger, you should understand your readers’ concerns and challenges so that you can provide them what exactly they want.

You can do this best by looking at your needs. Evaluate yourself as a part of a group of audiences? What you think and want from a blog. Then verify those thoughts with your friends and circle. This is how you get the revenue potential of the audience.

Have a look at this chart, and understand your audience how much they’re willing to spend on certain subjects.

Let’s understand this with an example of an interior design blog. The subject of your blog will bring different readers from different areas, including the general public, design students, and even professional interior designers depending on the competence of your blog.

You would have to follow these steps to make money from your blog in this niche.

1. Write content that attracts your audience.

So that users do not get disappointed when they follow your advice. And, once you gain their trust, you will be getting more and more audience and eventually start making money with your blogs.
