Just over a week ago I did a talk on ‘Breathing life into your brand identity<\/b>‘ at this years Food Blogger Connect <\/b><\/a>Conference in London. Branding is about asking questions and getting the right answers\u00a0<\/b> Why do I blog?<\/b>
\nLike last year<\/b><\/a>, it were fun food filled days and even the sun came out to play.\u00a0 A few people who were there and a lot who missed the conference emailed or tweeted me to ask me to write about my talk, apparently branding your blog is a thing a lot of you think about these days. And I get it, us blogger have to be writers, photographers, stylists, web developers and why not also graphic designers.
\nI had the advantage of being a graphic designer myself, my husband is an art director\/ illustrator and we have our own company specialized in unique branding and graphic design called The Tiny Red factory<\/a>. Although I enjoy photography and writing more than graphic design these days, it will always be a big part of who I am.
\nSo here are my views on branding your blog.<\/p>\n
\nto build your strategy on.<\/b>
\nFirst ask yourself this question:<\/p>\n
\nIs it to build a business, to get some kind of income out of it or out of pure fun?
\nThis will determine what kind of blog and branding you are building. Asking yourself questions and thinking about the answers will make for a more solid brand.
\n<\/a>My brand has become me and I have become my brand, that is one strategy. Another strategy is to stay the person behind the blog and let you site\/blog be your branding.
\nOne golden rule is to stay true to yourself, don\u2019t paint a picture that isn\u2019t true. To get a successful blog you can\u2019t be dishonest about ‘you’ because you can\u2019t keep up a lie for ever.<\/p>\n
