Blogging in the era of COVID-19

This is a stressful time to say the least. Everything is impacted by COVID-19 in some way, including our work.

In this article, I’m going to discuss how blogging can help businesses during today’s COVID world and beyond.

• Earning money online from your own website is perhaps the greatest of all home-based businesses. Unlike virtually all other home business ventures, blogging requires almost no start-up capital at all.
• Registering a domain is cheap, and web hosting these days costs next to nothing.
• The only investment that a blog really requires is your own time.
• Running a successful blog requires a great deal of time, but you’ve got plenty of time on your hands these days if you’re stuck at home during the COVID-19 pandemic.

You’re feeling stir crazy. There are no sports to watch, and you’ve already gotten caught up on all of your favourite TV series. It’s time to do something productive, and the fact that blogging requires almost no investment means that there’s virtually no risk. If you get started now, you could find yourself with a burgeoning second career on your hands when the stay-at-home orders are over, and everyone gets back to normal life.

Don’t let anyone tell you that making money with a blog is easy — but the fact is that it isn’t really that hard if you’re willing to spend a lot of time typing.

If you want to start a blog because you’re interested in gaining social media followers and earning notoriety, that’s great. Many people find it greatly fulfilling to write about their lives online — but they aren’t earning money for their work.

1. Create Value to Your Audience

2. Choose a Catchy, Memorable Domain Name

3. Write First and Worry About Revenue Later

4. Choose a Niche

Whatever blogging niche you choose, make sure you are genuinely interested in that topic. This would make it easier to stick to it and keep yourself motivated. 

All the niches below are great ones to try, so long as you pick a topic that you’re truly interested in.

Working from home tips

Executives and staff alike are looking for advice on how to improve productivity while working from home, perhaps for the first time. Consider creating content with suggestions on how to set up a home office or maintain a schedule while dealing with at-home distractions.

Entertainment

Everyone’s at home either trying to distract themselves from the stressful reality of the world or looking to cure their boredom. As a result, online entertainment is on the rise. Can you offer the entertainment itself, or maybe guides on how to choose the best entertainment?

How to strengthen Immune System

People are concerned about their health and want to do whatever they can to protect themselves from COVID-19. However, only dive into this subject matter if your brand is a legitimate medical expert. False information can damage lives.

Family recipes

Everyone’s at home for all their meals and trying to avoid restaurants, so they probably need more recipes in their arsenal. Maybe your employees have favourite family recipes you could share with your readers.

etc....

That’s all you need to do to get started with your blog.

We hope this article has helped you choose the best blogging niche to make money from your blog.
