Guess what?
This is not your average mom blog!
Surprise.
When I started Twins Mommy I did have ideas about a mom blog like sharing my life as a mom to twins and working from home.
But, for some reason I had the “grow my blog” bug in me and decided to share my journey on growing Twins Mommy with my audience.
Something shifted and that’s when Twins Mommy truly became a place to help moms make money blogging.
And I’m so glad I did this and pivoted to this way to help new moms with their blogging journey.
If you are interested in starting a blog but not sure if a mom blog is a type of blog you want, then read on to learn that you don’t have to have an average mom blog!
Not Your Average Mom Blog
While I do share a lot of blog posts mentioning certain mom blogs like parenting blogs, tech mom blogs, knitting blogs, lifestyle blogs and more, my mom blog shares a lot of different topics making it a lifestyle type of blog.
I share:
- My life with twins – I recently shared how scared I am for my twins.
- My freelance writing advice (since I’m also a freelance writer) – This post shares lots of cool writing jobs for moms.
- Social media marketing – social media is a huge “niche” I’m experienced in since I write about this for other companies. Here’s a post on social media content ideas.
- Advice to help other moms bloggers make money blogging – this is the core content on Twins Mommy I feel. Here’s a post on home-based business ideas for moms.
So, What is Twins Mommy About?
Okay –
So Twins Mommy is NOT your average mom blog but I still consider my blog a mom blog since my audience are moms.
But, another side of Twins Mommy is my experience and life as a mom to twins.
I don’t share a lot of “twins parenting” advice on this blog, but when I do it’s because it’s a heavy subject for me and something I’m grappling with.
Any other parenting advice I share over on Smart Mom Ideas – another blog I own.
Twins Mommy also has a Youtube channel. It hasn’t been updated but I plan to be more consistent once I create a video content plan!
For the longest time I was repurposing my Facebook lives in my Facebook group to Youtube but each video was like an hour long and my channel want’s growing.
So I created specific Youtube videos that were shorter but highly valuable and that helped me grow, but like I said it’s been a few months since I posted. One thing to know about Youtube marketing is that you HAVE to be consistent to grow.
I also am trying to grow my Instagram profile but I am sharing this profile with my other audience of freelancers. I find growing on Instagram pretty easy but time consuming.
Twins Mommy also has a couple of courses and printables to help mom bloggers. I’m not sure if I’m going to create more courses but only time will tell.

So You Want to Start a Mom Blog (That’s Isn’t an Average Mom Blog)
Okay.
I got you.
To start your own mom blog, make sure to check out my basic video tutorial on how to start a successful mom blog.
You’ll need an idea of what you want your blog to be about. Here are some blog ideas to help you decide the direction of your mom blog:
- Adoption
- Addiction and motherhood
- Author/teacher/professor
- Comedy based
- Spiritual based
- Eco friendly based
Once you have your direction you have to start thinking about the topic or “pillars” of your blog.
If you decide to go the spiritual route, what types of content will others that want to know about spirituality want to read?
You might have:
- Meditation
- Healthy recipes
- Crystals & Vibration
- Spiritual Mom
From here you can write content in these “pillars” and over time see what your audience really craves. You may realize that meditation is a dud with your audience. That’s okay, just write less of that content and more of the other topics your audience craves.
