MAKE
YOUR PHOTOS THE WIDTH OF YOUR PAGE
One thing that I personally find
extremely visually appealing, is when photos are the width of the page. This
makes photos larger and easier to see as well as making sure that everything it
aligned and in order. I find that it makes the overall appearance of your blog
really clean, sleek and professional.
GET
YOUR PHOTOS IN FOCUS
As an avid blog reader, I find it
really annoying and frustrating when I find someone’s blog who has interesting
written content, but their photos are blurry or when the background is in focus
and not the subject. I’m not saying you need a fancy smanchy camera, use what
you have, but even on phones nowadays, you can select the subject.
BLACK/DARK
WRITING ON A WHITE PAGE
It’s been proven that black writing on
a white page makes for an easier read. Although colourful writing may look fun
and more appealing, pink writing on a baby blue background makes it a lot
harder to read. As an alternative, dark writing such as navy or grey work well
or you could have your outer background a fun bright colour, but have your page
white.
Do you have any tips for blogging?
These are really good tips, I have to agree about the focus, it makes such a difference to photography and it doesn't take a good camera to be able to do it! I remember when everyone was into really wacky headers on their blogs, but personally I prefer the simple looking ones :)

Thank you! I agree, I much prefer the more minimalistic design, but the more colourful ones are lovely too! x
