Are you thinking about starting a blog? But you’ve heard people say that ‘Blogs are dead’, ‘Nobody reads long articles anymore’, ‘Everybody is on social media only these days’?<\/p>\n

And now you’re thinking if it’s really a good idea?<\/p>\n

Let me tell you four reasons why I’ve planned a new blog project for next year and why you should consider it, too.<\/p>\n

Reason #1: Bloggers still make money<\/h2>\n

Yeah, I know, people say blogging is dead since 2012. (That’s when I started my first blog!). And still, there are more blogs today around the web than ever!<\/p>\n

The reason is simple: People are still reading blogs and bloggers still make money.<\/p>\n

Either through affiliate marketing, through ads (yes!), through sponsorships or their own digital products. It’s still working and people are still launching new blogs all the time.<\/p>\n

Reason #2: There are still profitable niches left<\/h2>\n

Oh yes. Don’t make the mistake to think that all good niches for bloggers are already satisfied.<\/p>\n

Plus, many niches slowly get abandoned. If you find a topic with blog posts from 3-4 years on the first page of Google, chances are high you can outrank them with better and more recent content.<\/p>\n

People want the latest news and the most recent information they can get.<\/p>\n

It can clearly pay out to look for profitable niches in 2022!<\/p>\n

Reason #3: Blog Design is becoming easier<\/h2>\n

I don’t know if you’ve heard the news, but with WordPress moving into full site editing and popular site builders like Elementor, designing a blog has become easier than ever. Even, if you are not a professional designer.<\/p>\n

There are so many tools around to make your life easier these days.<\/p>\n

I recently signed up with Canva Pro after thinking about it for more than a year. Then I finally decided not to procrastinate it any more, I read reviews – this one<\/a> was super helpful in particular –\u00a0 and clearly studied the options that come with the Pro version.<\/p>\n

And took the plunge.<\/p>\n

What can I say? I’m super happy about it! For our new blog, we’ll be having a great design with Canva elements, plus Canva also lets me create matching social media graphics to promote my posts in a matter of minutes.<\/p>\n

Reason #4: Blogging is the perfect marketing strategy for Online Businesses<\/h2>\n

I know, social media is THE thing if you are running an online business.<\/p>\n

This is certainly true in parts. I mean, we are on Instagram<\/a> as well!<\/p>\n

But if you are not that into hanging on social media all day (like me!) and more into longform content, blogging could be your thing.<\/p>\n

If you want to bring your online business forward in 2022, why not start a blog with high quality articles and position yourself as the expert in your topic?<\/p>\n

Just like blogging, content marketing still works and is only about to grow bigger. Don’t miss the chance!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
