Just added this intrest topic to my discussions, so wondering how you fellow mylotters would advise someone to start there first blog and tips and hints and ideas of what to write about etc. I know I have asked some of these questions in other writing posts but they are related to this discussion as well. Thought it would also bring some of the questions back up for other people who have started discussions in this blogger's discussion and didn't get many replies so as to refesh for them and help them out, my very good deed for the day.

Mother - Mother is the greatest person in the world
I think as Mother's day has just passed, it is good to write about your mother. Who is she, What she did. Where did she come from. Why she gave birth to you. How she brought you up. So many things about your mother you can write. And don't forget to attach a picture of your mother in the blog.

Yes that is a good subject, sadly I don't talk to my mum and haven't seen her in years

If you want to start a blog, you should know the overall niche of a blog and then, write the article with SEO in it, so that it would help attract many visitors in the internet or if you want, you can hire someone who is expert in writing SEO article. That is if you have money.

Hiya Anne, Simply write about what you love the most I know it does take some thinking sometimes and you start to think oh I don´t know I don´t want to write about that and you end up going all over the place. So go back over what you have written on here and see if a bell rings and start from there. When I start writing and it does take me a lot to start I write it all out in notepad without thinking of spelling or arrangement and all that in other words I write in rough and then go over it after and then copy and paste it and that is it. Does that sound too easy?

If they want to start the blog, one should know the niche, the over all subject of a blog and then, write the article with SEO. SEO would help us increase traffic or you could hire a writer to your blog if you have a money.

Hi my name is Bluedoll and I am a blogger. Is this BA, Oops, maybe not. Well it can be addictive. Here I thought someone was going to tell me how to blog properly. Right ok, well an idiots guide sounded good for me because when I read myblog, I think, I sound like an idiot. Ok an idea. What are you interested in? Last night I talked to this guy online and I do know it is an online chat thing but well what can I say. Yeah, something like that I guess. I do like him by the way. Stay tuned for the next one.

No good deed goes unpunished! But seriously, it is the finishing of the blog that causes most people problems...

I think what a lot of blog writers seem to forget is that it needs to be interesting!

Write about what you lile yourself. With your humor and flare for putting words together I am sure you can write a great blog. Check back over the discussions that did do well and write on those subjects as well. Sooner you get after it the sooner you will get an idea of what it takes.
