Why a good topic is the first thing about blogging when it comes to the material side? Some niches are more profitable than others. Some blogs start earning in a few days while some make pennies in years. Why is it so?
Let me point out some important things you should consider while selecting a topic for blogging if you want to make money from it.
1- Choose a Topic
You are going to see the list of suggestions for the selection of a topic for your new blog. But these are options.
If you plan to choose one of these topics, do select the one that serves your own interests and hobbies. Do not select a topic you know nothing about.
Choose the topic you are passionate about. For example, you can choose the “relationships” category to write on if you are a social activist, a family counselor, a psychologist, a social worker, a student of social sciences, a customer relation officer, a marketer, etc. Do not choose “Health and fitness” in this case.
If you are an IT Guru, you can write about troubleshooting various IT-related problems.
3- Start Blogging as a Career
Making money from blogging is not a single-day activity. It is time taking. You have to devote your time to your blog. You will have to write consistently. Many of the bloggers quit after a month or two.
They should know that some blogs even start sufficient earnings after two years of hard work. Some blogs take even more time to start earning. Many of the good bloggers quit during this period. They don’t know how big a mistake they commit.
The revenue is always increased with the passage of time. So, if you are serious about taking blogging as a career, get ready for investing your time.
