WHILE IT MAY BE EASIER TO MANAGE ONE BLOG ON MANY TOPICS, IT DOES NOT ALWAYS MAKE

HAVING A NICHE TOPIC FOR YOUR BLOG IS ADVANTAGEOUS BECAUSE IT BRINGS IN LOYAL READERS WHO ARE SPECIFICALLY INTERESTED IN YOUR TOPIC, AND WHO WILL BOOKMARK YOUR
BLOG OR SUBSCRIBE TO IT VIA RSS FEEDS.

HAVING A FOCUSED TOPIC ALSO MAKES YOUR BLOG MORE ATTRACTIVE TO ADVERTISERS WHO ARE
LOOKING FOR SITES WITH CONTENT THAT IS RELEVANT TO THEIR PRODUCT OR SERVICE.

WRITING ABOUT A SPECIFIC TOPIC WILL ALSO BUILD YOUR CREDIBILITY, ESPECIALLY IF YOUR POSTS ARE
REFERENCED BY OTHER BLOGGERS WRITING ON THE SAME TOPIC, ESTABLISHING YOUR REPUTATION AS AN AUTHORITY OR EXPERT ON THAT SPECIFIC FIELD
OR TOPIC.
