What Do You Hope To Use Your Blog For?

Started by The Lady Bloggers Society , author of The Lady Bloggers Society — 8/16/2011 8:27:29 AM

A lot of bloggers are switching into roles of a social media manager, or changing their blog to adjust to different brands they are working with. Other bloggers have become published authors because of their blog.

What do you hope to gain from your blog? Where do you want it go eventually?

I go back and forth on the question of what I'm really aiming for with my blog. It is definitely comfort and practice for me, writing-wise, and it's become a memory box and resource for recipes, too. Recently, my blog was hacked because of a vulnerability in Word Press. My husband was able to save all the written content, thankfully, so aside from being a major pain to put back together, re-uploading images, widgets, plugins, etc, it worked out fine. It was actually a healthy experience--having to stitch it all back together again made me realize how productive I've been with it in a relatively short time. It hasn't felt like work at all, even though I take it seriously. So obviously it's worth continuing, if just for myself alone. : )

Hmmm...the main hope I have for my blog is to establish a sense of community and facilitate creativity in all of its forms, shapes and mediums.  Writing has always been a large part of who I am and I think I've always had a need to express myself in the written word.

I like to inspire others to dream, think, and do.


After I was laid off from my job, I decided to do something I enjoy which is talk fashion and makeup. Blogging has really brought me out of my depressed mood as the job search continues and has allowed me to share my loves with others. Please check me out.

My blog is about....stuff lol. My life, my adventures, what I'm reading, pictures etc.

But what I will have to do is become more organized because I want to start monetizing my blog so I will be looking into it.

My blog is my way of sharing what's in my heart and on my mind. If I weren't blogging, I'd probably be standing on a street corner, holding a sign with a random slogan on it.

My fondest hope is to parlay my blog into published work...maybe even launch a creativity coaching career...

This is a wonderful discussion topic-- thank you for posting it!

I started my blog, Life Matters http://r4ulifematters.blogspot.com/ to be a resource for people in need of information, articles or tips concerning many of life's matters.  Whether that be personal issues or financially related.  I started because I found myself in a very difficult situation financially back in 2007 and blogging game me an outlet to share my feelings and to keep my mind off things.


I'm older than a lot of bloggers are when they start, but over the last couple of years, my freelance writing has evolved into becoming an avid blogger.  I'm a mother and grandmother and my primary blog is about pregnancy.  I'm very, very passionate about pregnancy and babies and likely should have been a midwife.

At present, my goal is to provide pertinent, valuable information to women and their partners about any and all aspects to do with pregnancy or trying to become pregnant.

I've started to monetize my blog as well and will have a related website soon with maternity and baby supplies, clothing, etc.

My blog is http://letstalkpregnancy.com

I bought my domain name on June 29th of this year (2011) and added my first post on July 12.

It's new to me, but I enjoy it immensely.

I want to be come a valued source of information for women who are or wish to become pregnant.


Brand new here....I am interested in networking in my interests which would help my blogging, namely writing, photography and painting......although it has been awhile since there has been time for painting.

I really want my blog to be a place where people like to discuss movies, tv, books and music. I would love to have a very active community with everyone exchanging ideas and recommending cool things to each other.
