I am fairly new to the blogging world, and did not read them before starting this class. But since then, I have done my fair share of research on what makes a great blog, and what I could blog about that was important to me. I found the travel and fashion blogs to be my favorite, but since I won\u2019t be traveling in the near future a traditional travel blog would be difficult to do. So instead, I want to create a blog on where I have travelled to, including the different places I have lived, since they are vacation destinations. Two travel blogs that I really like are Earthxplorer<\/a> and And North<\/a>, as they incorporate photography into their posts as a large component. I think that when it comes to traveling, seeing what the places look like is just as important if not more important than reading about them. I want to incorporate my own pictures into my blog posts. I also want to designate a significant portion of my blogging to the town I am from and about what to do there if you were to visit.<\/p>\n

When looking at different blogs, I found that the most appealing to me were ones with large pictures that drew you in, and then writing about the related images. While Classy Girls Wear Pearls<\/a> is mostly images, with little writing, I like the layout of the blog and want to create mine in a similar style.<\/p>\n

When looking back on my experiences traveling, I realize that a lot of my memories are very personal. I do want to write a little bit about this, but I want to focus my blog posts more about what I saw and did in the places I have been.<\/p>\n
