I've covered this a little bit before in earlier posts discussing how I got started and what I primarily talk about and topics that I've selected just to keep things going.
For me, that's leveling. That is the activity that tend to do most in game. I do stay up with current content on my main, Joar the Undead Warlock, and usually a few other toons. But for me that mostly consists of doing the regular current grindy content (dailies, world quests, whatever it is at the time) and staying up with LFR since that's been an option.
For you, if you're getting started with blogging, that can be talking about the aspects of the game that you are currently enjoying. Whether that's raiding, PvP, gold making, role playing, fishing, mount collecting, pet battles, whatever. The best advice I can give on having a blog that you will find personally fulfilling, is to talk about the things that are important to you.
Even with that focus on what's important to you, it does leave a lot of room for ancillary topics and I've covered a lot of them. I've talked about professions, about raiding and dungeon strategies. I've reviewed beta stage content and new patches. I've even spent time providing some analysis of Blizzard's financial reports and earnings releases back when it was possible to glean a reasonable amount of data on World of Warcraft from those. I've provided ideas and suggestions for future changes. I've even talked a decent amount about PvP and about gold making.
Having a primary focus doesn't eliminate the ability to talk about other ancillary areas of interest. Those just help to add some richness and diversity to your overall theme.
This is actually an exciting time to be starting to blog about World of Warcraft. We have alpha / closed beta invitations for the next expansion going out soon and as we're winding down on Battle for Azeroth, it's a good chance to do some reflection, critique and make constructive suggestions on what can be improved next time.
In the next post this week, I plan to lay out a few of the topics that I plan to cover during Blapril 2020 and also provide an update on what I'm doing now with the Joar army (hint, I'm leveling again).
Cheers,
Joar
