There are many different definitions of a “brand”, but the most effective description is that a brand is a name or symbol that is commonly known to identify a blog or its writer and separate them from all the other bloggers out there. Of course, good writing is what will draw them back, but first impressions make a big impact.
The overall branding of a blog or website can also stretch to a logo, symbol, or even design features (E.g.: Regularly used colours or layouts, such as red and white for Coca Cola.) that identify the blogger or his/her blog.
So you may be asking: “How can branding benefit me?”
- Builds recognition and loyalty – The main benefit of branding is that readers are much more likely to remember your blog. A strong brand name and logo/image helps to keep your blog’s image in the mind of your potential readers.
- Gives an image of quality – A strong brand projects an image of quality in your blog. {It is commonly said that if you show a person two identical products, only one of which is branded; they will almost always believe the branded item is higher quality.}
