One of the most important things you can do before typing your very first blog post is create a great blog title. A blog title can literally make or break your blog. It says everything about who you are and what you are all about. And it tells your readers what they can expect from your writings.

From your blog title alone readers can deduce whether you are funny, serious, creative, crafty, a mom, an entrepreneur, single, divorced, happy, sad, cynical, among many other attributes. So make sure you think long and hard about what your blog name says about YOU.

Keep these ideas in mind when you create your blog name.

• Remember, your blog name reflects who you are.
• Choose a name that will not embarrass you or your family now or in the future.
• Create a title that's easy to remember and gets a lot of instant attention.
• Make sure you create a name you can live with because it will automatically become your online handle. People will remember your blog name more than your real name.
• Don't try to copy anyone else's style.
• Don't create a "blah" blog title.
• And most importantly, give it a lot of thought. It's more important than you think.

Good luck! Be creative.
