Brainstorming ideas for new blog I just recently looked into the idea of starting my own blog....

Don't look for a specific topic or angle, just write about your life and how you see things, what you think about them. Write about what you know. It might be something you noticed in the store, something someone said that interested you, something you've seen on the news. But write from your own perspective. If you blogged once a week or every three days, it would remain fresh. It's not a diary, so you wouldn't have to write it every day.

I'd advise you to read as much as you can, novels, short stories, poems. Reading a lot will help you to understand how to write and express your thoughts clearly. Think of a snappy name for your blog, something witty and memorable. Remember: write what you know, which is you, your life, how you see things.

A lot of the successful bloggers I've seen are successful because they never gave up, and just kept posting about random things. If you love writing, love sharing your everyday life or a passion you have, you CAN make it. But it takes dedication, there's a lot of competition and you need to find out who you want your "audience" to be. 🥹

I would suggest just start writing. Don't try to plan it out before hand. Just write and see what comes out. Now, what comes out may or may not be anything you want to put in a blog. It may be that you write for a bit just to get the feel for it and then look back and make plans based on that.

Good luck to you.

@Ghostinthemachine Don't worry about being successful and focus on having fun with it. Your life experience is valid. To a 16 year old you're an elder so don't worry about your age. What are you passionate about? What's the one thing you won't stop talking/thinking about?

I strongly suggest checking out Jon Morrow. He has a ton of great advice on how to make a successful blog. I have learned a lot from him. He has a lot of free resources. https://smartblogger.com/

Kind of a saturated market
Do you have hobbies?

Just write. The ideas will come. In fact I am quite confident that after a short while you will have more to write about than you have time to write.

The big thing is to get started.

You must be having some hobbies. Start exploring them deeply with passion. Write/share your journey, experiences, learnings and tips to help other people who wanted to follow those hobbies.
