"<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Have you heard of dad or daddy blogs? No, well you are not alone. Most of you have heard or read blogs that moms write. </span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But nobody thought that there are dads who can write, start, and maintain a blog. But it is true, dad blogs are rare, but they are there, and they are interesting.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Being a dad is tough; you have to be the strict one all the time. As a man, you don’t show too many emotions, although you should. But the fact is that a dad loves his kids equally, and sometimes more than a mother. </span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are a dad and you want to talk to other dads about the struggles you face or want to give out some advice or share cute memories of your kids or want to talk to other dads, start a blog.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you want to start a dad blog and earn decently from it, you need to do it right. In this blog, we will cover some tips that will guide you.</span>\r\n<h2><strong>Let’s begin…</strong></h2>\r\n<h3><b>1.</b> <b>The prerequisites for starting a dad blog</b></h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For starting a successful dad blog, you need to be a dad first. Why? Well because then you can write an honest and genuine blog, and they work better. When you don’t have any first-hand experience about or what they do or don’t do, how can you write authentically about it?</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, knowing why you want to start a dad blog is crucial. Is it only to document your child’s or whether you want to advise other dads and earn money doing so?</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All this well help you set your tone and work on the blog accordingly.</span>\r\n<h3><b>2.</b> <b>Build a brand for your blog</b></h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the world of mommy blogs, if you want your dad blog to shine, you need to establish a brand for yourself. For that, you need a brand or visual identity. So, start working on the name of your blog. It should be relevant to the content you will be posting. If you are a dad who is more involved with the kid's day-to-day activity, but at the same time, you work on your job and your hobbies, your content will be varied. </span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, find a name that justifies all this, take your time, because for a blogger, your blog name is your brand.</span>\r\n<h3><b>3.</b> <b>Find the right platform for your blog</b></h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WordPress is the most popular choice for starting a blog. It has free templates that make it easy to create your own website. It has a lot of other features too. With simple clicks, you can have a theme for your website that you can customize too.</span>\r\n<h3><b>4.</b> <b>Secure your domain name and web hosting</b></h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A domain name is the address of your blog. For instance: www.canva.com</span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is the domain name for the brand Canva. Now, you should buy your domain name, instead of having a free blog, because it has more chances of being successful.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can buy a domain name from </span><a href=\"http://godaddy.com/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Godaddy.com</span></a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, also some domain service providers provide domain name and web hosting service in one package. If you want to buy it separately, you can do that too, but you will need to connect both these. For hosting services, you can check out </span><a href=\"https://www.bluehost.com/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bluehost</span></a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.</span>\r\n<h3><b>5.</b> <b>Social media</b></h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You need to secure social media handles with the same name as your blog. It is hard to do that, so make sure as soon as you get your domain name, you make accounts on relevant social media. </span>\r\n<h3><b>6.</b> <b>Know your audience</b></h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not everyone will read your blog, so find your target audience. It will help you write a blog according to their likes and dislikes. Also, be consistent with your blog. You need a schedule so that people know when to expect new blogs.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use pictures, you can use personal photos for more effect. Use </span><a href=\"https://www.canva.com/en_in/create/social-media-graphics/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Canva </span></a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to edit your photos.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> When your blog is up and running and you are getting good traffic, take it a step further. Collaborate with brands that sell baby products or connect with other dads and influencers to grow your audience.</span>"
