Every blog needs to be about something and it needs to be written with certain readers in mind. Some bloggers seem to ignore this fact and they try to blog about any topic that comes to their mind. While doing so might be appealing to some readers, especially to the family of the blogger in question, when you want to be successful as a blogger, you will need to decide on your niche. If you do not do it and if you neglect this aspect of having your blog, your family might be the only people who will keep reading your blog and they will only keep doing it because you are family.
-My first piece of advice is to choose an audience, not a topic. Very often, topics can be broad and you might be tempted to write about a few topics some people might not find interesting. When you get a chance to choose an audience for your blog, you make sure that you specify exactly who your target audience is and you write specifically for them with them in mind. I can think of at least a few successful bloggers who write specifically for the group of people they have in mind.
-Be unique. Many bloggers struggle with the fact that they want to be exactly the same like some of the most successful bloggers in the world. This is what they do wrong, because when somebody wants to read a quality article on a topic, he will choose to visit a blog that is more popular and not just all those blogs the goal of which is to copy that particular blog.
-It is good to try to visualize when you want to be as a blogger in a year or even five years. What are your dreams and aspirations? What is it that you want to achieve and when do you want to achieve? Visualization is part of being successful. It is proven that those who visualize various things in life are more likely to be successful in anything they choose to do.
-Do not be afraid to change what you blog about. Changing the topic of your blog is something that your readers will understand and they will adjust to it.
