The Complete Guide to Starting a Tech Blog on Blogger in 2025 (My Step-by-Step Workflow)

Want to start your own tech blog in 2025, but feel overwhelmed by where to begin?

You’re not alone — I felt the same when I created TuturBytes using just a free Blogger account. In this post, I’ll walk you through my real process, from setting up your blog to writing SEO content and preparing for AdSense.

No coding. No investment. Just practical, human-friendly steps that work.

🛠 Step 1: Choose Your Tech Blog Niche

Don’t just say “technology.” Be more specific:

Niche Type	Examples
🔧 Tech How-To’s	Laptop tips, mobile tutorials, fixes
🛠 Free Tools	Generators, converters, SEO tools
💻 Software Reviews	AI tools, apps, browsers
💡 Blogging Tools	Blogger, WordPress, Chrome extensions

💡 My niche: Tutorials + tools = TuturBytes

🌐 Step 2: Create Your Blog on Blogger

Go to https://www.blogger.com
Sign in with Gmail
Click “New Blog”
Choose a name like TechHelpZone or ByteTools
Select a default theme (we’ll customize it later)

🎨 Step 3: Install a Clean Theme

Avoid the default Blogger look. I used a custom XML template (you can find free ones at SoraTemplates, Piki Templates, or ThemeXpose).

🎯 Choose:

Fast-loading theme
Mobile-friendly
Clean fonts
Good layout for tools + posts

📄 Step 4: Create Must-Have Pages

Add these:

About Page: Who you are, what your blog does
Contact Page: Add an email or contact form
Privacy Policy: Use a Privacy Policy Generator Tool

Google AdSense requires these for approval!

✍️ Step 5: Write Your First 5 Posts

Don’t stress over perfection. Focus on helping.

Start with:

“How to Submit a Sitemap to Google from Blogger”
“Top 5 Chrome Extensions for Bloggers”
“Free Meta Tag Generator for Blogspot Users”

Aim for:

800+ words
Clear headings (H2, H3)
Images/screenshots
Personal tips or opinions

🔍 Step 6: Submit to Google Search Console

Go to https://search.google.com/search-console
Add your blog URL (like https://yourblog.blogspot.com)
Submit your sitemap:

/sitemap.xml

Now Google can index your blog properly.

📈 Step 7: Optimize for SEO

Use keywords people search for:

“best screen recorder for bloggers”
“adsense approval tips 2025”

Other quick SEO wins:

Use keywords in post title, first 100 words
Add alt text to images (e.g. alt="free seo tools for bloggers")
Link to your own posts (like I’m doing here!)

Then start:
