So you want to create a blog but don't know how to write technically or professionally? We often think that blogging is just about writing articles and stories, but the truth is, there are blog types or topics that best suit non-writers. Here are some blog types that does not require much expertise in writing:
1. PHOTO BLOG
A photo blog is best for, of course, photographers or even those who just love taking pictures. All you have to do is post a photo on your blog, give it a nice title and most importantly, include a watermark on your photos, especially if you're a professional photographer and you don't want your photos stolen by someone else. You can also disable the right click on your blog, making it impossible to save the photo. There are several ways to disable the right click on your site, depending on the type of blogging platform you are using. Another important thing you must learn is how to add ALT TEXT and TITLE TEXT on your image so your content can appear on Google search.
2. SONG LYRICS
With this blog type, basically, all you have to do is post the lyrics of a song. Just make sure the title and the name of the artist are stated correctly on the post title, as wrong spelling and information could easily result to not getting found on web searches at all.
3. SONG CHORDS OR TABS
Similar to a song lyrics blog, this blog type focuses on music - but this time, chords or tabs are included in the lyrics. This is a go to page for musicians or aspiring musicians who want to know how to play a certain song. Just be sure you place the right chords to avoid disappointing your visitors.
4. QUOTES AND RELIGIOUS VERSES
No matter what you're going through in life, no matter what you're feeling, there will always be a quote or religious verse that suits your situation. What's really good about this blog type is that it doesn't require too much effort. With just a simple search, you could easily copy quotes or verses that you could publish on your blog.
5. TRENDING TOPICS
This is quite popular nowadays. You begin by hunting for some trending social media posts or contents and simply share it on your blog by embedding it or posting a screenshot of the post. The key here is to come up with a killer title, a good headline that would encourage people to click but is consistent to the actual content. Do not use misleading headlines (clickbaiting), since the government is strengthening its efforts against fake news. You definitely do not want to be charged of the said crime just because of your desire to get clicks for your blog or website. Also remember to give credit to the source of the content to avoid copyright violations.
ADVICE: Even though these blog types may not make you a popular online sensation or personality, it provides a good way for you to earn online without even having to write technically or professionally. At the end of the day, apart from having a voice or being able to express yourself in the online realm through the contents you post, it is also best to utilize a blog site not just as a channel for your ideas but as an additional income stream.
