How to Start a Food Blog - A Beginner Guide
SHARE

Are you someone who wants to share culinary delights with the world? If you are thinking to start a food blog and showcasing your cooking skills, creativity, and skills, I will guide you to create your online presence.

However, it is important to know that only dedication, passion, and consistency can make you successful and achieve your dream. Not only can you express your thoughts and share cooking tips with others, but you can also earn a passive income with a food blog. In this guide, I will briefly guide you on how to start a food blog. 

How to Start a Food Blog – Steps to Follow

Whether you are chef, foodie or kitchen novice, if you have decided to start your own food blog to share tips with other foodies people and connect with large audience. The process is not straight forward, but don’t worry I guide you how you can establish your online presence and start a blog.

In the undersection, I have mentioned how to start a food blog. Read in detail below:

Decide Your Food Blog Niche

As a beginner, it is very difficult to cover all the food-related topics. So, it is important to establish your food blog niche and target your audience so that you can feel ease in meeting your audience through your blog posts.

If you have a specific niche, then you can attract the right audience and stand out in the competition. You can select between cooking tips, food reviews, recipe ideas, food critics, and many more. But I recommend that you pick a niche according to your expertise and interest that helps you write and share ideas with your audience. 

Here are some popular niches to consider:

  • Healthy eating and nutrition
  • food reviews
  • Cuisine-specific
  • Baking and desserts
  • Home Made Cooking Tips 

Select Name for Blog 

The blog name is a representation of the blog over the internet and how your user will find you. It is important to select a unique and catchy domain name with minimum length. Keep it short but attractive to the audience. However, choose the relevant name to your niche that will reflect your blog. 

Buy a Domain for Your Food Blog

Now, that you have decided on the name of your blog it is time to secure your domain. How to secure your domain? You will need a domain registrar that sells the domain. It is important to note that you must know the difference between domain extensions such as .Com .Org .Net and many others.

There are various platforms to buy the domain, but pick the one that is reliable, secure, and available. Hostinger, NameCheap and GoDaddy are some famous and easy to use platforms for buying a domain.

For example, I searched for the domain name on GoDaddy as a portfolio. 

  • Visit the official GoDaddy website.
  • Enter your name in the “search bar” to check the domain availability. 
Godaddy
  • I have searched “Desi Cuisine,” and the domain is available. It is a “Premium” domain, which means a passive income is needed to buy.
Godaddy
  • So, if your name domain is available, you can easily buy by clicking on the “Get it” option in “Green Box”

Unfortunately, if your name domain is already taken, then you can think out of the box and change the which is available to buy. Because you will need a unique name that is not already used in any other blog. 

Buy the Hosting Plan For Online Presence

Now, after you have purchased the domain for your food blog, you need a web hosting service for your online presence. Without web hosting, your blog will not be shown on the internet. It is important to store data online so that your audience will reach you through Google search.

Where can you buy the web hosting? Dont worry. Many hosting service providers allow you to host your blog on the server. Hence, before you decide to buy web hosting, check the server’s features and services, such as customer support, security, bandwidth, and uptime. 

With a lot of web hosting provider options, it is hard to choose a reliable one that offers quality services and features. However, you can choose from Bluehost, hosting, wix, and WordPress to build your blog. 

Apply Food Blog Theme

Now it’s time to set up a theme that matches your needs and represents a food blog. After the online presence, the theme is the mandatory option to start a food blog. As a beginner, you can apply the premade theme from WordPress, as you will find variety of pre-made templates. But for a quality user experience, create your own coding theme related to food blogs which is secure and unique. 

But it’s up to your needs and budget because coding themes need a budget, and premade themes are free to use. One important thing to keep in mind is to choose a design layout that is also mobile-friendly because most of the users come from mobile devices. One-page layout design and user-friendly pages enhance the user experience. Not only a theme but also create a unique logo that represents your blog and brand identity. 

Start Creating Content

Content is the key to engaging users with your blog. Users come to the blog to read updated articles on recipes, reviews, and homemade cuisine. You can write blog posts about your own recipes and personal experiences to build a trusted audience. Otherwise, there are fewer chances to engage people with the blog. Share tips with short videos and images about how you have made these recipes and what items are needed. 

To reach your target audience then must know what they are looking and searching on google. You can use the keyword explorer tools to find the trending keywords to reach your target audience. 

Promote Your Blog

As a beginner, it is important to grow your blog to build a readership. If you only write and publish the content, it does not grow your blog, although you need the strategies to promote it to new users.

Research your target audience and get an insight into their activities on different social media platforms to create a plan to reach them online. You can market your blog on social media through ad campaigns, post sharing, and others. Podcasts and seminars are also the best sources to promote your blog. 

Monetize Your Blog and Earn Money

The food blog is not only about sharing recipes, reviews, and tips about cooking, but you can also earn money as a chef from the blog. There are many ways to earn from blogs like:

  • Affiliate Marketing: Affiliate your blog with other businesses to earn money when your user buys the products through your links. Such as Amazon, Shopify, and eBay. 
  • Google Ads: One of the most effective income source is to show ads on your blog and articles posts. Google pays to you according to ads impressina and click. 
  • Sell Your Product or Online courses: You can also sell your cooking items or home made remedies to your audience. Or make your own online courses and sell through your blog and earn money. 

Winding Up

All these details are about how to start a food blog. If you have expertise in cooking, sharing foods, and reviews on different cuisines then you can start a food blog and earn money with it. However, all you need is writing skills to write posts and engage the audience.

However, first, target your audience through niche and select a unique name for your blog. Now, buy the domain and web hosting to secure your online presence and store data. Create a responsive design for your blog to enhance your user experience. When you build a trusted audience, you can monetize the blog to earn money.
