THREE REASONS TO BEGIN TRAVEL BLOGGING
The travel blog we run is called “Y” because it is based on the importance of your WHY – the ultimate reason for performing things. After a long time in a job that I didn’t like and hated, I cannot imagine living a life that’s not motivated by a compelling Why.
The more precise you are with the reason behind it and the more passionate you feel about these topics, the higher the chance of your blog’s success or even your success in the project you’re working on.
I want to share three compelling reasons to create a travel-related blog or expand your existing blog. I believe that the three are probably popular and talked about; however, I haven’t heard the third one discussed in the same way as the most important reason to start travel blogging.
What’s the point of them?
Take a path that you constantly evaluate the objective outside of yourself and adapt to your readers and your own needs.
Stay caught up in different reasons than someone else’s. We all have our own way, and comparing what we do can result in insecurity, self-criticism, or arrogance.
You will find numerous lists and tips posts on this blog and why they’re doing exceptionally well. Since we’ve begun this journey, many people have criticized the travel blogging method and complained about destroying the story.
From what angle are they viewing this? From the joy of telling their tale or what they think their readers are like?
Every community is unique. Our readers are always happy to help them by sharing our advice and strategies. They plan their travels around these tips and then reach out to us to tell us what advice made them feel more confident about the trip they’ve ever had.
A customer just emailed me to tell me how our 2-week itinerary in Outback Queensland helped her effortlessly create a memorable trip. I am so grateful for hearing this. What a disservice would I do to pay attention to other people’s preferences and not to what the people in our community say they enjoy?
The ability to take on the opinions of others is highly beneficial – you can learn from others. However, please don’t ignore your voice or what your group will tell you about what they want to hear.
Ask them questions, talk to your customers, ask them the appropriate questions, listen carefully, and pay attention to the data you collect. If a post is shared more than 200k shares, you’ll be aware that list posts are compelling!
Tourism industry
Sometimes I get irritated when I get conversations from travel bloggers or influencers who ask, ” ‘What can I get for free?” before even thinking, “What value can I offer?”
Be aware of your value and stand by it and only demand or demand something that aligns with what you can provide. It could hurt you in the end and also the entire industry.
The value of travel blogging is in the tourism industry. It offers a lot of weight. However, there’s lots of anger because people are soliciting too much, too early, and for the same amount of value.
I am awestruck by being an integral part of the tourism industry and helping to develop it and make travel accessible to a broader audience with strong and relevant partners. It is possible to do innovative things that benefit everyone else, but make sure you create your worth first, intending to advance the standards of the tourism industry.
Naturally, if a travel blogger is promoting a brand in exchange for publicity for free (and time to explore and write) and a discussion of value is required. However, you must enter the conversation with something worth it to the other party – not hyped-up numbers or inflated egos, but the truth and service.
However, enter that exchange by offering something of value for the discussion – not hyped-up numbers or exaggerated egos, but honesty and value.
Travel bloggers can share the real story of their travels and highlight trips, etc. But it comes with responsibilities.
We don’t always be perfect all the time. We’ve made mistakes. However, if you approach it intending to be helpful and not just to be focused on yourself, It’s quite an enjoyable experience.
I felt the most significant happiness when we first traveled throughout Outback Queensland, and I witnessed the difficulties that the community was experiencing in the face of drought. What an honor and an honor.
It was a great honor and privilege to travel to this area and aid them by marketing the fantastic tourism experience they offer. It will assist them to overcome the difficulties of a place they cannot control.
I was thrilled to be able to assist by helping in this manner. I realized that it was an essential part of what we do: to provide a voice to local communities working to communicate what they love about their area and assisting them to succeed.
If you earn the level of privileges through your travel blog, you can get free travel (and I am not a fan of the word”free” because it’s not ), you’ve given lots of effort and exposure for) or get paid for your travel blogs take a look at the bigger picture and ask.
“How do I best serve the residents of the community I’m visiting? How can I assist in growing their businesses?
In our recent visit to Snowmass to attend the Travel Influencers’ Summit, Courtney, the representative from Colorado Tourism, spoke to us about the impact we could create for local communities. We could showcase their area and draw new tourists to the site. This does not only impact those running travel-related businesses as well as all other businesses in the community. This, in turn, affects their families and everyone’s dreams.
Her presentation sparked me to keep learning and improving as I strive to have this kind of impact. I want to apply my love for travel to assist others in traveling and assist every single person affected by the ripples of the communities we visit.
It’s incredible to think about the positive impact you can have on the world by doing something you enjoy and having precise and compelling motivations.
You will be bolstered in numerous ways if you come from a position of elevation and service.
