These days, there are blogs for just about every topic under the sun. Whether you want political news, woodworking ideas, or makeup tips, you can find a knowledgeable blogger who has plenty of information to share. But with so many blogs out there, it can be tough to wade through all the options to find the ones that match your interests. However, you can narrow down the field by using search engines, blog directories, and social media to track down interesting blogs that suit your interests.
How to Find Interesting Blogs
The easiest way to search for blogs is on Google—simply type what you want to read about and add "blog" after it in the search. You can also search on popular blog hosting sites like WordPress and Blogger. Tumblr is also a great option if you're looking for more casual blogs with a social media aspect.

Common Questions: Finding & Making Blogs
Do people still write blogs?
Yes, people still write and read blogs. Though it may seem like blogging's heyday ended years ago, blogs are still an important part of the internet, especially when it comes to cooking, lifestyle, and travel blogs.
What websites have the best blogs?
WordPress and Blogger are two of the top blogging sites, both for finding blogs to read and making your own blog. Wix is another great site for hosting blogs. Many bloggers use custom domain names (URLs) so you may not see WordPress, Blogger, or Wix in the URL even if the blogger is using those platforms, however.
How do I make my own blog?
Start by signing up to your blogging platform of choice. Blogger, Wix, and WordPress are three popular options. Decide what you want to make your blog about—consider a subject or niche and narrow down your target audience. Make a catchy name for your blog and select a layout or template, then get writing!
