Here's what I did with the blog I have on WordPress. I started that one out as being a blog where I intended to post about the goings on in my life, but then realized that I was blogging more about politics and current events, so I made that the focus of this particular blog. It developed from one thing to another, so even if you start out posting about one thing, it can morph into something else entirely. Go with it.

Before you proceed to create a blog, you must begin at the beginning. You must have an interesting topic. Then you must have with you the required information. You must support your information with data. You will have to do little research on it. Finally, you must have a writing style. Your blog should be able to invite readers; otherwise, what is the use of writing a blog if none reads it. Remember, when you are writing something you are encroaching on people's time. Write about something, people after reading should thing that after all they did not waste their time reading it.

a successful blog requires a lot of features to attract the attention of the viewer.the blog must content a topic which may be already discussed have separate identification which can be provided by giving more importance in the content and information.the stylish and seo language make that one superior than those copied blogs.....try always different.....hope it will benefit you

An interesting topic is always good. A new twist or spin on a topic is always good. You want something that other blogs can't offer. It should be updated frequently. Not necessarily daily, but more than once a week. You should be able to write well. Overall I think originality is the most important aspect when it comes to the success of a blog.
