Uniqueness in Blogging! How to do? – Part 3
In our part 2 of Uniqueness in Blogging! How to do?, we have discussed about maintaining comments in blogging. In this part, we are going to talk about the design of a blog. So how a blog should be designed?
Here, I have to mention about the types of blogs based upon the content.
- Personal blog
- Professional blog, etc.
Personal blogging is like writing stories in a website and anyone can write anything in such blogs. And Professional blogging is like writing articles with the best and a competing content.
So why do we concentrate on a blog design? What is the relationship between uniqueness in blogging and design?
Design of a blog is the first one to be noted by any person. Hence, it is always must to consider it first.
Blog Design Guidelines
A professional blog design is what we are concentrating here. Here are some tips to be unique with your design.
- Be unique. Your blog design should always be unique. Don’t just use what others are using.
- Don’t just buy or download a theme/template design. Modify it and then use it in your blog.
- Logo of your blog is very very important when considering the design part. So try to be simple and professional in logo design.
- Design should be compatible. A blog design should be compatible with any medium like various internet browsers, mobile phone browsers, etc.
- Your blog should be accessible. The biggest problem you will face when designing a blog is its accessibility rate. Disabled persons will simply disable your blog by ignoring, if your blog doesn’t satisfy them. Try to make a design with good color combination to satisfy all.
- Avoid using magazine type themes. As we said earlier, “We are not just posting information. we are making information”.

Thanks for the tips, really nice one. Just adding one more … “color scheme selection”. An awful color selection will surely ruin a great blog.

Hey,
Nice tips.
We often tend to ignore the design part of any blog. It is hence that we prefer going with any free blog theme available online.
Spending a bit on the blog theme is always advisable because that gives a uniqueness to your blogs and incorporates your personality into it.
