This is a tough one to answer, not because it is a bad question, but because I am not sure that the end is matching with the means.
If you are going to blog about something it should be something that you are at least moderately knowledgeable about and something that you are incredibly passionate about. The passion is the key. If you are passionate, you will soon become an expert.
They say that the best way to learn is to teach…I think they should add blog to that.
Passion is the key though. Never forget this. If you are not passionate about the subject, you will fail on your mission as you will give it up after a month or less.
1.) Now, identify a subject that you both know something about and are passionate about. Take that subject and go to Google Trends and see if there is any associated searches that are red hot.
2.) Go from there with some notes to Google’s keyword tool and select some key words with minimal competition and moderate traffic. Utlize one to two of these key words in each of your posts.
3.) Keep repeating step 2 and add posts to your blog on a weekly basis (minimum).
Best of luck in all of your endeavors.
