Do you want to start a blog that showcases your family tree for everyone to read? If you have, then you’re in luck. Here are some pointers and other tips to help you get your blog rolling. This way, you can set up, write, and build an audience about a topic you hold near and dear to your heart: your family.

Gathering the Information

Your primary objective is to go out and gather all of the information you can about your lineage. Start with your parents and work your way back through time as far as your relatives will allow. If those avenues have been exhausted, try a genealogy bank. What is genealogy? Genealogy is the study of one’s familial history. 

A genealogy bank is an online resource that has information dating back hundreds of years about family histories. Information includes marriages, births, and any special events held by or for your relatives. This kind of resource makes gathering information that might have been lost to time, much easier to pool for your research. Give it a try and you might be surprised about what you find in your family’s past. 

Where to Blog

Now that you have a base to work from, it’s time to start writing but where? As there are many options available to you. If you’re a novice blogger, it can be a daunting task to decide which blog hosting service you should use for your writing needs. Take a moment here to do some research and see what each platform has to offer and see which is best for your budding blog. And remember, you’re never held to any set service. If you find that the blog host is lacking in options, take your blog elsewhere, the choice is yours. 

Plugs to Help You Along

One thing to consider when choosing a blog host is its plugins. These are additions that can help make your blogging life easier in many ways. There are plugins to help keep user traffic safer, form building, user registration, and to help you archive posts. You can try one or as many as you like out and see how they work and whether your blog will benefit from using them. The technology is here to make it easier, so why not take advantage of it? 

Building an Audience

So you’ve been able to find a good amount of content to help you write about your family history and all the fun stories therein. You’ve found the ideal hosting service. Now it’s time to build an audience. Getting people to your blog can be a tricky endeavor, but with a little perseverance and good content to read, you should be able to pull in readers using a few basic techniques. 

One thing to keep in mind is that you’ll need to update regularly. At first, it might seem like it’s not a big deal, but when people see that you’re dedicated and pushing out content, they’re more likely to come back to follow up. Use social media avenues and online marketing to help get the ball rolling. If you want to have a successful blog, you’ll have to get the word out that it’s live and ready to be read. 

Blogging isn’t a race and you’ll have to take your time to gather and build an audience with your writing prowess. Tell your story and the story of your family’s past in a compelling fashion that will have people itching to know more. Be yourself and allow your personality to shine through in your writing. If people feel you’re honest and if you can make them laugh and cry, you have them hooked. Just work on your audience like you would a sapling, with loving care and attention.
