Are any of you out there bloggers?
My wife and I were quite the bloggers for about 2 years before the pandemic. She would come up with some great ideas, we would go out to do whatever it is we were going to write about, she, even though I am a photographer, would take the shots for the blog, and we would put our pieces together for a final edit.

We were doing a geo-blog focused on tourism.

I loved just being with my wife on, essentially, paid dates because the blog supported that. What I hated was the meticilious planning that would be involved at times, as it couldn't just be a spur of the moment "date" type thing at times. We would have to stay focused on the roadmap we laid out to fill the blog so that it would continually rank and bring in that bread.

Because it was so heavily focused on tourism, we decided to close it down when the government issued warnings for non-essential travel. We didn't want to become the black sheep by disregarding such warnings, even though they were just that, warnings and unenforceable due to the Constitution; the Japanese just followed them because of their collective nature.

What about you? What topics do you like covering the most and what topics the least? Do topics you don't like covering do any better than the ones you enjoy the most? How many blogs can you maintain?

I picked up one domain that would be a good name for a "blog" style website for information on a subject, but I haven't put it together yet.

I have 3 active niche blogs. I post once a week on each of them. They're all monetized with ads and making money. I also have 2 other blogs that I plan to turn into niche blogs.

My 3 active blogs are:
  1. A blog about blogging
  2. A blog about local hiking
  3. A blog about cycling
The two I'm working on:
  1. A blog about local cycling
  2. A blog about outdoor content creators
My least favorite blogging niche is personal blogging. I just don't know what to post. I tried personal or daily life vlogging, too. I just am not that exciting for it, LOL.
 
Ever since I created my first self hosted blog in 2015, I think I have created over 50 blogs. I have sold most of them. Before Covid Pandemic and until the early stage of pandemic, selling blogs was my primary earning methods. Currently, I have three blogs, personal blog, multi topic blog and travel and food blog.

I love to see collaborative effort especially when it's from the couples. Frankly speaking, I'm completely impressed with what you guys share. Unfortunately, my partner and I are not in the same field. He is a businessman and does not know anything about blogs. I started blogging in 2021 but I never took it seriously. One thing I learnt is that blogging can help to hone our skills in writing. Do you still blog with your wife?

It is quite impressive! Managing three niche blogs is no easy fit. When I was still actively involved in blogging, I had to blog myself. One is on personal finance and the other on fashion and style. To succeed in this business, consistency is very crucial and once you can maintain that, you are on track. Do you care to share your blogging workflow strategy?

This is mind-blowing! In fact I am famished. I've never seen someone who created 50 blogs in my entire life. It's really an incredible achievement. I’m so sure, you must have experimented with different niches and I guess you should also have a wealth of experiences on them. Can you pinpoint what really interests you in creating so many blogs? I like to hear from you.

I write every day. I usually finish (writing and editing) a 1,500-word article in 2-3 days. Immediately after I'm done, I start the next one. I have three articles I'm working on at a time. It's a pretty flow for me :)
 
My very first job was writing blog posts. Actually, I was unaware of the earning potential; my only motivation was improving my deteriorating mental well-being. A friend told me I could actually make money blogging, so I got more serious about it.
 
I have had a few blogs in the past but most of them I never had enough time to post to them so I eventually closed them. I do have some ideas for blogs I would like to create and start writing for by my main set back at the moment is very much not having enough time to dedicate to a blog so it is on the back burner for now.

It’s virtually impossible to create 50 blogs at one time unless you’re using automated systems to create them.

Creating blogs isn’t an easy task. You have to actually sit there and write the posts out. Blogging isn’t like forum posting.

They’re generally more informative and in depth than some forums, which is why a lot of writers delicate a lot of time to them.

I have one blog and it's all about literature. Some stuff is about the stuff I've been reading or spotlighting an author or answering any literature related questions or sharing any movies/tv shows I've been watching that are based on literature.
 
The thing I hate about blogging and forums is that nobody is interested in it (generally speaking). It's not that the material is bad, but that people don't really have time for it. In fact, the only way to draw attention to it is to buy traffic for it (via paid SEO, paid social media ads, etc.)

Of course, a blog or forum that nobody comes to is boring because it's just you.

You don’t have to buy traffic for forums nor blogs. It’s all about creating awareness about your blog or forum. If you’re not doing that, nobody cares.

Especially if you’re not promoting it in another areas for people to find it.

That’s the main issue here. You have to give people a chance to find your blog or forum. It’s not going to magically create traffic on its own.

Buying traffic, assuming the content is good, lol, is creating positive awareness.

Buying traffic is a tactic that worked in the early 2000’s not 2025.😝

Building backlinks has more of an impact than anything else as does social media promotion.

As does showcasing your blog or forum on sites that allow it, especially directories or online communities.
 
But you have to build a community on social before blog promotion or any external promotion works.

That's why most people don't use social media to promote or they give up fast.
It all depends on the platform tbh. I have some social media pages with only 40 followers and one with 200 followers. They both receive traffic from promotional posts.

It all depends on your targetted audience and your content that you’re posting. Some algorithms are easier to gain traction are where others are much harder.

If you’re able to get likes, reposts and more on a platform, you’ll generally start becoming more visible on any particular platform.

Twitter is hard, but Bluesky and Threads are easier. Tumblr is also quite easy for new social media marketers.

The same also applies to Reddit and Quora.
