Introduction:

If you are enthusiastic about something or a particular hobby, then it is obvious you will be talking about it and wanting people to know about it, either through a group conversation or online, as the case may be. Then, why not go a step further and tell the world about your passion or hobby, such as hiking, trekking, or others. For instance, if you love hiking and are a regular hiker, then start your very own hiking blog and get going. Release it to the viewers globally. Here you will come to know about a few important steps to beginning a hiking blog.

Choose the Main Content or Topic-

You can create a blog using your name, but it will be easy for other people to find you if you choose a specific subject or a word like “hiker” or “hiking. Further, you can choose subjects like hiking on trails, but again, you can become popular if you choose some good themes like health benefits of hiking or fitness or gear guides, backpacking, long distance hikes, or day hikes, or trekking, and so on. The main focus is choosing to try and search for a topic or subject which is not covered or taken by other bloggers. You should be unique and should stand out from the crowd. If you copy other individuals’ ideas for your blog, then you will have no followers and get complaints on your hiking blog. Write or share original stories about hiking and your real experience.

Choose the Best Chums, the Links —

One of the things that can connect your readers to your blog is links. For instance, you can connect the state parks or famous hiking trails in the hope of folks clicking on the link to come back to and from your blog. To increase your traffic and leads, you can also choose to like hiking gear shops or clubs, especially if your blog has some topics that other hikers do not like or are not popular.

Select a Blogging Stage –

Choose the best from the choices like sqaurespace.com or wordpress.com as a blogging platform. You will get a plethora of options to choose from. For instance, some blogging platforms are free now. But there will be limitations in design and layout, and it can also be complex for the novice user. Domain names can be used. Other blogging platforms may cost you some dollars, but they have an interface that is friendly.

Selecting a Theme—

You can begin designing your blogs; on some blogging platforms, you may find pre-made themes available for free or for a small fee. You can also choose themes that are simple and that showcase your writing and pictures. If you are a coder, then you can change the themes, but make sure to keep your colours and fonts at a consistent level.

Next, if you don’t know coding, then learn to code. Hike, write stories and poems, post them on the blog, and later market them. That’s it! You are done.
