This interest will target a particular audience, which will more than likely be people who share the same interest.
It is important that you choose a niche that is interesting to you and will also get lots of traffic to your blog.

When deciding on a niche, it is suggested that you pick something common and something people can relate to. Then you can go a little deeper to be bring out the specifics. Sports are very common, but it's too general. Choose a certain sport or even a team to blog about. Make sure you find a niche that you can constantly write about so the information doesn't get boring.
Consistency is Key
Keeping your blog jumping and alive will keep your readers anticipating for more every time. Release a post on a certain day of the week and let your readers know when they can expect it. Consistency works and it will all pay off in the end. Don't worry about not having many readers in the beginning. Don't worry about getting comments and views either. Be patient and it will all fall in place.
If you are able and willing to do these blogging tips, then you won't have any problems starting a blog. Starting and running a blog is really not difficult once you have your niche in place. You will always have something to blog about.
Don't Forget To Communicate
It's important that you are always actively communicating with your readers. Answer comments and questions the best way you can. Even if it's just to say "thank you for stopping by." You will see that a little goes a long way with blogging.
