The step needed to start a successful blog is choosing a theme. If you are still in doubt, here are a few ideas:

Hobbies and Hobbies - Hobbies are an interesting topic that if you really put all your passion into and enjoy doing it will be a great start. It could be cooking, travel, fashion, sports, masterpapers review, cars or something completely different. Remember that even blogs about not so well known hobbies also become successful as your audience is literally the whole world on the internet.


Life experiences and experiences - Everyone can boast about the lessons they have learned from life. Sharing your knowledge can be helpful to others who are in the same situation as you. Examples include blogs about mothers with children, different experiences at work, how you coped with illness or addiction, and describing happy moments - a wedding, the birth of a child, etc.


Personal Blog - As implied, this blog is all about you. You can include a variety of topics from how your daily life is going to your moments of reflection and passion. A personal blog is a great way and opportunity to share what you are thinking with a large audience. And you don't even have to stick to just one topic.
As soon as you choose what topic your blog is going to be on it's your turn to name it.

A good blog name needs to be descriptive so that potential readers understand immediately what it's about.

If your topic is specific, then you should certainly include it in the blog name in some way. But.. don't limit yourself to just one word! For example, if you're creating a cooking blog, you don't have to include the word 'cooking' in the name. Use synonyms like "food", "recipes", "dishes" and so on. This will inform readers that it is a cooking blog.

Consider names for personal blogs. Since they discuss many different topics, it is advisable to use your name, a variation of it, or your nickname. For example, if your name is Peter Georgiev, you can safely name yourself "resumesplanet.com review", "Pesho Blog" as well as include your surname if the name is already taken.

Once you have planned the name of your blog it is time to choose a domain extension. This is the so-called .com, which is the most popular but also often taken. If that's the case for you, good alternatives are net or .org. Thus, in its finished form, your domain would look like this: vashetoimenalatinica.com. It is important to remember that the domain name cannot contain spaces and must be in Latin!

Once you've figured out the name and chosen a domain extension, it's time to check if the address is free:

(domain check window)

Note: You cannot use spaces and
What to do if the desired name is already taken?
Do not rush to give up the name. First change the domain extension, if .com is already taken try the others - .net, .org, .bg and others.

Add small words and endings, like "my" or "the". In this case, your domain would look like TheBlogOfPetar.com instead of domyessay.

You can always include hyphens to help, e.g. petar-georgiev.com. punctuation marks except for hyphens in your blog's domain name!
