Hey Beauties,
So I've recently been reading a book based on how to start a blog, and I thought it would be a good idea to do this mini series on how to start one, so for those who are thinking of starting a blog can get some inspiration and ideas on how to start it.
Now for my regular viewers, you may be thinking "What the? Brontie this is a beauty blog?!" Let me correct you there. My blog used to be a beauty blog. When I changed my name to 'xobrontie' I changed my blog theme to beauty/fashion/lifestyle. And I do see this series to kind of be a lifestyle series, and it is blog related so I can't see why I can't do it.
This series will be in 7/8 parts. Depending on how I pair all the sections. I will only be posting 1 part each week. And it is not just based around running a beauty blog.
Today's part is based around choosing your blog name/url.
If you don't know what your url is, its your website address. For instance, mine is www.xobrontie.blogspot.com.au. And my blog name is xobrontie
There are some key points I have found are best for when it comes to choosing a blog name/url
Make it Unique and Stand Out
Don't make it something basic. Make it something that you think will attract viewers.
Have it something that relates to your blogs theme
Some bloggers do have their names relating to their blogs theme, this is optional to do, but don't go having a name like "Mrs Harry Styles" if your blog is about shoes. It will attract the wrong crowd if you hear what I'm saying.
Don't make your name too long, or too Common
A common name is something like my old name which was "Brontie's Beauty Blog". So many bloggers have their name somewhere along the lines of that. And to me, just seeing it over and over again gets plain old boring.
And don't make your name too long. Don't have it as long as something like this; myfavouritebrandisrimmel. A name like; danceinthesunlight is 100% fine though.
If you are stuck on what to call your blog, think of things that surround you on a daily basis.
Whats your favourite colour? What kind of day do you like? What is your favourite animal? What is your name? What is your staple piece? What makes you happy? What is your favourite emotion?
If you aren't sure on a name, feel free to ask someone! If you feel ashamed, or weird asking a friend, feel free to ask a blogger. We are all willing to help someone start this joyful hobby. The more the merrier!
Feel free to ask me questions below!
Next Thursday's part will all be based on choosing a theme for your blog.

Keep Smiling,
xobrontie
