Why is running a food blog the best thing to do?
The main reason for you having or running a food blog is the best thing that you can do is because a lot of people do not want to watch a YouTube video on making a certain dish but they rather read up on how to make that dish. I like it when I can read a food blog post and they list all the ingredients and how much to use and the time to cook.
Some people likes to read step by step and watching a video just don’t seem be to the best way. I have to pause the video, I have to rewind the video to get all the ingredients down and how much to use and my hands could be messy and I don’t want to rewind and fast forward on my phone while watching a YouTube video. I can just scroll and read step by step on how to cook something and all of things that I cooked in the past, they all came from a blog post.
Starting and stopping a video is just too much but reading something is easier. So yes if I was a cook and wanted to share my recipes, I would do a food blog. With a blog, you own the site and you can promote your site and people can go to your site 24/7 and you can update your site and if you have a food truck, you can go into your blog and write about what is your next stop. Don’t forget that people day and night can be looking up your food and your blog to see what you have to offer.
Yes having a blog is great to have but there are some other things that you should have and these things are free to use. I would have a YouTube channel, a Facebook page, IG page, and Tiktok which are all free to have. Tiktok is great for food these days and a lot of young people are using Tiktok.
What you can do is make a YouTube video and have someone take your video and make it to a 1 min video. You can post your recipes on all social media to promote your blog and business. the one thing that you can do with your blog is collect emails from the people who comes to your blog.
You can use Aweber which is the email hosting service that I use but Aweber can host your email list and with a email list of people, you can promote your new blog post, your new videos, any deals that you may have and new recipes. You can email people when ever you want to and that is the best way to stay in contact of people.
Yes having a food blog is one of the best thing that you can have and other things like social media which is free and a YouTube channel. You can post your YouTube video on the bottom of your blog post so the reader can read your post or watch your video.
