It is true that your content will make sure if your blog will be popular with the people and keep them coming for more. But the images and the overall appearance that you display over your blog becomes a part of your blog’s identity. Most of the blogs have a limited collection of blog skins and therefore the presentation of majority of the blogs looks similar.
Have a good collection of images and select the best one to display on your blog. Display your pseudo name and a smart display picture that does justice to your true identity. It is advisable not to give your true identity over the web, including a blog. Have a pseudo name that is helpful for friends and strangers to connect to you. Copyrighted images should not be uploaded as it is a direct violation of the internet laws as well. You must give proper credits in case if you are using someone else’s content, pictures or music files. Remember that the internet is one big fraternity or a platform for sharing of information and one needs to respect that spirit.
Have different images that will attract your readers and help them build your blog’s distinct identity. Your blog’s content is the flavor and rest everything else adds up to the beauty and presentation that guarantees large number of readers. Since a blog’s platform is easier to manage as compared to that of a website’s, make most of the features that your blog site offers you. The fonts and colors must be legible and not make up for a strenuous reading. It is better to take feedback and advice from your regular readers. Keep innovating when it comes to the format and presentation. But at the same time, never part with a distinct characteristic or image that has formed a part of your blog.
