Most people start their blog for fun however after a while it can turn out that they want more out of it? Do they want to get a revenue or turn it in their full time job? It really depends on them however it is important to find your niche in order to stand out and make your blog stand out.
Now I am not talking on behalf of all bloggers and will focus on fashion, lifestyle, travel and food bloggers. Now, if you are into blogs you will be able to name at least one successful blogger in these areas? And they are where they are because they found their niche.
In order to find yourself you have to follow these:
1. Be honest with yourself – You have to ask yourself if you maybe are influenced too much by others. Did you just wrote about something you have seen elsewhere? You can inspire yourself but there is a thin line in between copying and inspiration.
2. Sit down and write down what makes you unique? Do you have certain passion? Could you combine your hobby with fashion? It really can be anything – from great flowers arranging to raw food blog.
3. Think about a different spin – Ok so you want to write a food blog? Could you do a niche? Could you dig very old recipes, could you inspire yourself from things like how to treat certain illnesses and what to eat and cook? Do you travel a lot? Perhaps you could focus mainly on how to stay fashionable on the go…. There are so many options but it is only you who can find it.
4. Good quality content – I prefer if I take my own pictures (well no the best example of this article) as again it reflects you and your personality. Pictures as well good text are very important. Write and photograph with pride and stay yourself.
5. Don’t be afraid and try it? I was so against work wear outfit inspiration and was worried to bring this to my blog. And actually after some time you realise it can be fun. You just cannot give up after two articles. You need a bit more time to see if that works for you.
So my dears…just sit down and think and try to find that niche that can make your blog profitable. It really is one of the key things in blogging.
Vetsina lidi zacina s blogem pro zabavu, ale nekteri lide po urcite dobe chteji blogem ziskat vice. A mozna prave mit blogovani jako praci na plny uvazek muze byt jednim z nich. Jedna ze zakladnich veci, ktera vam pomuze je najit to v cem se lisite od ostatnich a blogovat o tom. Vytvorit si unikatni obsah a presentovat to, co nikdo jiny nedela. V anglictine se tomu rika Niche.
Dneska se nechci soustredit na blogery ze vsech sfer, ale spis na ty kteri se nejak dotykaji blogu o mode, zivotnim stylu, cestovani ci jidle. Je to zkratka protoze napriklad o blogu, ktery se soustredi na bojova umeni opravdu nic nevim.
A jak tedy byt jiny? Je to velmi tezke, vetsina blogu kopiruje jeden druheho a holky pretvari svuj styl, protoze kdyz vidi nekoho uspesneho, tak si mysli, ze prave to jim pomuze? Je opravdu tezke objevit neco noveho, ale vetsinou clovek nemusi chodit daleko. Ja jsem treba drive nechtela presentovat to v cem chodim do prace a nakonec se z toho vyklubalo, ze to lidi nejvice zajima. Do prace chodime pet dni v tydnu a spousta lidi nema zadne napady, co na sebe apod. A tak se z toho vyklubala takova moje niche. Jako dalsi priklad bych mohla uvest blog Stylecookbook. Simona ma blog velmi unikatne zamereny na cesky trh a hodne pestry. Sama presentuje nositelnou a cenove dostupnou modu, ktera apeluje Ceskym ctenaru. A nedivim se, ze jeji blog je tak uspesny. Je dobre prestat byt chtit jako nekdo, protoze za prve uz to nekdo udelal a za druhe se to nemusi hodit k vasim ctenarum. Simona nesla cestou byt jako nekdo, ale proste zustala sva. A to ji prineslo spoustu zajimavych spolupraci a take ctenaru. Dalsim takovym blogem je Sexy Mamas. Jako prvni zalozily blog urceny maminkam, ktere se chteji o sebe starat i kdyz maji doma maleho prcka. Je to velmi vyvazeny blog, kde najdete nejen modu, ale i recepty. A takovych blogu na ceskem trhu moc neni. Jde opravdu o to najit neco, co jini nedelaji a nebo to delaji trochu jinak. A tak mam pro vas par tipu jak na to.
1. Budte k sobe uprimni – Nejvetsi problem blogeru je v tom, ze vidi nekoho velmi uspesneho a zacnou delat presne, co ten dany clovek. Zacnou se podobne oblekat, psat apod. A to je pravdepodobne spatne….nedavate nikomu duvod jit prave na vas blog, protoze muzou jit uz na ten, ktery s tim zacal drive. A je proto dulezite najit neco jineho. Mezi kopirovanim a inspiraci existuje velmi tenka cara a je dulezite neprepadnout na spatnou stranu.
2. Co vas dela unikatni? Mate napriklad zajimavy konicek? Radi aranzujete kvetiny, jste sikovni na peceni a umite tvorit svoje vlastni recepty? Musite popremyslet o tom, co vas cini jinym nez ostatni a zkusit tohle prinest na vas blog.
3. Co tak jiny pohled? Je tezke vymyslet neco opravdu prevratneho a proto staci zmena pohledu. Napriklad takovy blog o jidle..takova Ella z blogu Deliciously Ella chtela jidlem a varenim vylecit svou nemoc a dneska ji znaji i lide, kteri se o food blogy nezajimaji. Mozna prave muzete ze svych handikapu nakonec vytezit.
4. Dobry obsah je dulezity – Tohle je tema porad probirane dokola. Ale podle me je lepsi, kdyz fotite sve vlastni fotky, kdyz pisete bez toho, ze nekde neco opisete a tvorite kvalitni obsah bez pomoci ostatnich. Jenom tak vas obsah bude unikatni a promitne se v nem vase ja.
5. Nebojte se – Ja jsem napriklad s presentovanim sama sebe v pracovni outfitech bojovala. Vubec jsem nechtela neco takove na blog prinaset. A trvalo mi to chvili nez jsem si zvykla a zjistila, ze to funguje. A hlavne se nemusim nijak namahat. Obleceni do prace si kupovat musim a tak se zkratka fotim alespon dvakrat nekdy i trikrat tydne v tom, co mam na sobe v praci. Je dulezite chvili pockat a zkusit, zda vas napad funguje. Samozrejme to nepoznate po dvou clancich, takze budte trpelivy.
Takze preju vam vsem hodne odhodlani a uspechu v hledani vaseho niche.
Love Glamazon xoxo
