Know How To Start A Food Blog And Enjoy The Experience

By Olive Pate


People blog about a lot of different things. The one main element that all of them share is the willingness to write about things they like, know and are willing to commit to the research to do it right. People who blog, currently, about many different topics all know those subjects and are prepared to write about them in great detail. As you are interested in how to start a food blog, you will have to determine if you have this commitment.

When writing about foodstuff, there are many decisions to be made. You can write about your own meals and what you do differently. You can go into the history of various food items. You can concentrate on recipes for different occasions or how to pair certain foods with others or with the appropriate liquor.

Another one of the decisions you have is to decide whether you are going to writing in a vacuum or as a participant in restaurants in the local area or while on vacation. In other words, you can write simply by thinking about what you like and writing from your own perspective or you can use this site as a review site for favorite eating places.

Whatever decisions you make about the content, it needs to be interesting. Many bloggers do not do this and it shows in their hit counters. Bloggers use their sites to earn money by presenting ads, however, if there are no readers or if they do not stay long enough, there is no earning. The only way to keep people on their site is to give them interesting content to read and other resources to explore.

Ads are fairly easy to post. You simply sign up with one or more of the many Pay Per Click sites, grab a piece of code they offer and place it into a section of the blog. Ads appear, whenever anyone clicks on your site and you can get paid for that if they click on any ad. But that is to monetize your site, not how to write it.

Research edibles. Learn about how the great chefs treat their clients. Take a course in cooking or history about food. Make a round robin trip, through your city or county and visit a large representative of various types of cuisine. Think about all of the diners, restaurants and fine dining places and make a study of each type.

Pick a specialty. It might be American or Chinese. French food always has an allure to it. Italian is interesting and there are so many wines to match things with. Find out what a particular trend is or bring out some of the things about a lot of foods that many people do not know about. Let your interest run wide and get information that will make people sit up and notice you.

The key to writing any kind of piece, whether it is about woodworking, coin collecting or food is research, knowledge and love of the subject. Your readers will enjoy reading material they cannot find elsewhere. You will enjoy the experience because you will become more and more popular.
