Now why would you want to know which blogs are the most popular in a certain niche? I could think of many reasons but off the top of my head, here are some of the more pressing reasons you should know the top blogs in a certain niche.
Learn by example
The most popular blogs in a certain niche did not get there because of nothing. They must be doing something right. So if there is one thing that you should do as you are starting your niche blog, it should be to find out which blogs are the best in your niche. You can read through their posts and learn from their style and content. You can pay close attention to their formatting and every other little detail in the blog. You can then learn from their example – pick out the good things and avoid the “bad†things.
Leave comments
More than learning from the best blogs in your niche, you can also grab the chance to start making your presence felt online. One of the best things about blogging is that there is a lot of interaction. You can leave comments in other people’s blogs and share your own opinion. More than that, you can actually leave your mark and let other people know that you – and your blog – exists. You leave your name and link or blogger profile, which can leave a trail for other people to follow.
In the next post, let us look into some ways by which you can determine the top blogs in your niche.
