Introduction
By now, you have decided that you want to start a blog about interior design. Congratulations! This is a great decision because it’s one of the fastest-growing industries in the world. If you’re untouched to the world of blogs and online writing, however, there are still a few tips and tricks that will help get your interior design blog off on the right foot. Here are five simple steps for getting started:
- Get to know your readers.
- Get to know your readers.
- Listen to what they like and don’t like.
- Know what they need and want.
Know what they are looking for in an interior design blog, including colors, themes, products (if you’re selling them), etc., as well as their interests in other areas of life such as travel or food!
Build your unique brand.
A brand is the sum of all your experiences, knowledge, and skills. It’s the way you present yourself to the world. It can be a single product or service, but more often than not it’s made up of many different things that together form an image for your business.
A brand should always be unique, so if you want people to remember you when they see or hear about your blog then building a strong brand identity is important. Brands are created through consistent messaging across all platforms (social media, press releases, etc) as well as visuals such as logos/emoticons on social media posts, etc., so these elements must match each other too!
Create an editorial calendar and stick with it
You should know what you are going to write about in advance so that you can plan your posts ahead of time. Also, make sure that you have enough time to write posts and edit them before publishing them online. For example, if you have a lot of work on the weekend or during evenings when people are at home (and they don’t want to see any boring interior design content), then reschedule this post for another day when everyone is out working hard!
You’ll also need some help promoting your blog: finding interesting people who are interested in the same things as you or getting into contact with bloggers who would like their readership increased by sharing links back through social media platforms such as Facebook or Twitter is crucial here too!
Join the right social networks and participate in them often.
Social media is a great way to get your name out there and build your audience, but it’s also a distinguished way to promote your blog. You can use it to interact with other bloggers and readers, share links to articles that you think are relevant to their interests, or just chat about whatever topic happens to be trending at the moment.
As long as you stay active on social media (and don’t just post once every couple of weeks), people will eventually find you—especially if they know what they’re looking for!
Learn how to take and edit pictures
One of the biggest mistakes that many beginner bloggers make is not taking pictures. The importance of taking the right photos cannot be overstated, especially if you want to construct a following and get noticed by potential readers.
Taking good photos requires some skill, but with enough practice and patience, you will soon become an expert at snapping some great shots. Here are some tips that’ll help you take better pictures:
Make sure there’s sufficient light in your room before taking any photos! If it’s dark then all your images will come out looking like black-and-white silhouettes instead of colorful snapshots; which isn’t very appealing for your readership I’m sure 🙂
Don’t forget about angles! You can tell whether or not something looks good by how it’s positioned against the backdrop (i.e., walls). For example: Is there adequate space between two pieces? Does one piece block another? All these things affect how well they complement each other visually speaking so make sure they don’t clash too much when viewed together side-by-side.”
