Research Your Options

The first step is to research your options before starting a blog. There are plenty of companies that offer free basic accounts to users. If that sounds like an option for you, get started by adding content right away. Most have a drag-and-drop editor that is great for beginners like you.

If you need something more advanced, look into a paid membership. You may even want to hire someone to design the blog for you. This gives you more custom features and tools to work with while blogging. Price plans range from moderate to expensive and are charged on a monthly or yearly basis depending on the company providing the service to you.

Choose a Theme for Your Blog

Next, you’ll want to choose a theme for your blog. This will help dictate your color and typographic choices as well as what type of information you share and how you choose to share it. You’ll have a number of options to choose from for templates, so knowing what type of message you want to communicate to others helps narrow down your theme quickly.

Share Share Share

Create quality content that people want to share. Post it to your blog and share it on your social media accounts. Engage in conversations with your readers and answer any questions they might have about the travel experience you’re writing about.

Now that you know how to start a travel blog, it’s up to you to keep it filled with content. This is how you engage your readers and get them to visit your website regularly. Keep in mind how valuable sharing information is. Even if you haven’t traveled in a while, make sure to add new blog posts, photos, and videos regularly to keep your readers interested.
