    Hey All DP's.

    I'm running serval of blogs, but only danish blogs at the moment. And I wanna rune one english blog. And the niche should be blogging, because I fell I know a lot about it, and it's fun!

    But how should I write, and what should I write about, I have NO ideas.

    So which kinda content should I post?

    My blog (link in signature) is similar to your new blog, check it out :)

    It's pretty ironic a blog about blogging doesn't know what to blog about :p

    That is exactly what I was thinking. When you start a blog you must have some or good knowledge about what you'll be blogging. If you have it then you should be able to write easily.

    My advice would to write about a topic you know like and that you alot about. The writing will be easier and you'll sound like you know what your writing about.

    That's upto you buddy! :)

    Try out both ways and see which way your more comfortable with, 'cause at the beginning theirs a a extremely vast range of readers, so you don't have anything specific ;)

    Once you build an online presence that's when you have to stay consistent (which everyone has an opinion on :rolleyes:)

    Good luck and go where you heart tells you! There's 19minutes before 2008 is officially over, so make the most out of it :p

    You don't have to do a step by step guide on starting a blog. Most of that information is available online already. If you have blogging tips and tricks that are not found somewhere else, those might be worth writing about.

    Yes. If you are having trouble thinking of what to write about,that is probably an indicator that you might not want to blog about that subject.

    Ideally, the subject that you decide to blog about should be one that you are overflowing with ideas and opinions about. You should have so many ideas that you don't know where to start. This will provide you with the fortitude that it takes to develop a blog into a long-term success.

    That is a bad sign already, im still amazed how bloggers will ask on a forum what they should write about.

    I believe that he knows what he is talking about. All I'm saying is you should play to your strengths and if you aren't 110 percent comfortable with your topic or language, behaps you should focus your energies somewhere that you feel more at ease.

    Just my two cents.

    Why don't you try and be a contributor on someone else's blog, where you can monetize your content, that way you don't have the risk or expense of a new blog, or having to come up with posts everyday. You can write on your own schedule and still make money with your adsense account.

    Do you see where I'm going with this ? See sig :)

    best would be to use grab the contents based on your keyword/niche and post it in your blogs. you can do that manually or use paid plugin/services. i can suggest to use Caffeinated Content WP plugin. its pretty good.

    In that case use google translator or similar service to translate your posts. See how they are written.
