Blogging is a great way of sharing your passion for décor and design. It is nice way of sharing your ideas and perhaps even getting decoration ideas from your readers.
If you want to ensure you get enough readers for your décor blog then here are some simple tips to keep in mind. With these five tips you can improve your blog and make it stand out.
1. Have Something To Focus On
It is a good idea that you define what your blog is all about. Although some people want to talk about everything in their blogs, the best blogs tend to be the ones with a clear focus.
You are already on the right track because you want to blog about décor. You can then define it a bit further or at least explain to your readers what type of décor you are most interested in.
Have a good ‘about this blog’-section to explain new readers what your blog is all about.
2. Be Regular
You also need to make sure you blog regularly so that readers have something to look forward to. If you have more ideas coming up at certain times then just write your blog posts ready for later. You don’t need to publish everything you create straight away.
And if you know you aren’t going to be able to blog for a while, perhaps because you are going for a holiday, do let your readers know about it.
3. Focus On Your Blog Design
Since you are writing about design it is really important that you make your blog look really good as well. A good rule of thumb for a well-designed blog is to keep it simple and use neutral colours.
Show your blog to friends and family and ask for their opinion. If they all say that there is something bothering them it might be a good idea to change it.
4. Give Detailed Information
Remember to also provide your readers with detailed information on where you have gotten the items featured in your blog. If you are talking about a new lamp you got but you never mention where you got it people aren’t going to get enough information from your blog.
For SEO purposes it is also a good idea to physically link to the company or location where you found the specific item. Even if you have only gotten some inspiration from a décor or design website you should mention it on your blog.
5. Include Photos
You also want to make sure that your décor blog has enough photos. You don’t just want to talk about the beautiful things you have made or purchased but you also want to show them to people.
Again, in order to improve your blog’s SEO it is a good idea to tag your photos. For example, a picture of your new bedroom wall could have tags such as wall stickers in the UK, bedroom wall, DIY design and so on.
If you feel like you aren’t making the most out of your photos then it is a good idea to head down to websites such as Between Naps on The Porch for some photo tips. It can help you improve your blog a lot if you focus on taking beautiful photos.
