A good blog name should be able to tell readers about the
scope of the blog. The name of the blog is equally responsible as its contents
to attract genuine readers. So, how to name your blog?
Single topic blog: If you are blogging about one specific
topic, you probably want to include the topic in your blog name. This is a good
decision because it will allow your readers to identify the scope of your blog
contents. However, don't get lost looking for the exact word to fit in your
blog's name. If your blog is about cars, the blog name doesn't have to have car
in it. It could also be motor, vehicle or automobile. So also look for synonyms
of your topic and choose the most suitable one.
Multiple topic blog: You'll have to be more creative while
naming blog that covers wide range of topics. In such cases, think of a name
that is vague and subjective. Sometimes names that make no sense can be more
relevant.
Personal Blog: If your blog is personal and have personal
contents, then you might want to use your name. Using your name is fine when
the blog is all about you. However, use some adjective or verb with your name.
If it is only the name of a person, it looks like a header of a CV than a blog.
Domain Name
Having an appropriate domain name for your blog is also very
important. A .com domain extension is the most preferred extension and is also
SEO friendly. Most bloggers choose the domain name for their blog to match with
the name of their blog. However, you can choose a different domain name like
me. Sometimes the domain name of your choice is already taken. So, be a little
more flexible when choosing a domain name.
