Presenting The New Blog Name

Posted on the 29 April 2014 by Aearthr

Finally giving a new name to my blog!

This blog is started with a vague idea to share my everyday life. So in a rush of adrenaline, I just setup a blog called ‘A Little Typical’ that showcases my typical faves and thoughts.

However, during the Blogging 201 exercise, I finally made the decision to revamp my blog from top to bottom. Read on to see how I go through my blog renaming process for a new blog name that shouts my character.

Here’s my brainstorm flow.

1) Research

Take inspiration from the top bloggers. See how they create a mark with their unique blog name. Don’t forget to take a leaf from WP Dailypost advice on “Choosing the perfect blog name”. For myself, I have also compiled a post which shares a little insights on my favourite bloggers’ naming style.

Make and forms words. They can be blog names or tagline.

5) Decision

Here come’s the decision-making time. Go over the names created in Step 4 and filter through with your set of criteria.

Let’s discuss my blog name requirements.
