The 6 Best Food Blogs On The Web

The 6 Best Food Blogs On The Web

Over the past decade, food bloggers have carved out an incredibly popular niche. Offering advice and inspiration, successful food blogs are professional, yet relaxed and inviting. Collectively, the top food blogs have millions of followers and based on their success, some have even scored deals for cookbooks and others are hosting cooking shows. In fact, food bloggers have four times as many followers than any other industry.

Whether you operate a vegan blog or a website for dessert-lovers, one thing is certain — food bloggers are influential. It's reported that as many as 84 consumers make purchases after reading about a product or service featured on a blog. The key is to create content people want to read. While recipes are the most sought-after content in the food space, there are many topics to write about.

The following food blogs will provide you with inspiration. The content they publish is a cut above the rest, leveraging them as a trusted, credible resource among food lovers. Here's why they're so successful.

Created by a couple from Minnesota, Lindsey's humble recipes and passion for teaching have allowed them to build a dedicated community of followers.

Scripted Offers Support to Those in the Food Industry

While looking at the list above, all the food blogs have one thing in common — their content is killer.

Whether your goal is to increase traffic, grow your following, or sell products, the content you publish matters. While running a food blog sounds easy, it is A LOT of work. Once you begin to carve out a niche for yourself, it's highly beneficial to delegate certain tasks, including content writing.

Quality content is time-consuming. However, it cannot be rushed.

The best content out there is "the best" for a reason. Those who create the top content are highly skilled individuals, developing and writing content that connects with a target audience. Skilled writers also understand how to write content that converts. For example, a skilled writer should know the value of establishing authority through links and the power of SEO. However, above all else, the content an expert food writer creates needs to be high-quality and meets your readers' needs.

If you're in need of quality food writers but aren't sure where to look, Scripted offers a large talent pool of highly-vetted expert writers. Accepting only the top two percent of applicants ensures that the writers on our platform are the best of the best. We offer a selection of food writers from all backgrounds and walks of life. This will allow you to build a team of diverse writers, allowing you to achieve your content marketing goals — regardless of the content you need or the personality you seek.

Scripted's all-in-one platform makes the hiring process a breeze. Once you become a member, you will gain instant access to thousands of writers, including a large selection of food writers. Post your job listing so that writers can submit proposals and accept those that fit-the-bill.
