Interviewing other bloggers in your blog will let your readers have a bit of variety as they get to know more about other bloggers and their profile. It may not sound good if you ask the similar question to all the bloggers you interview in your blog. For example, you can’t ask the same questions that you asked a technical blogger to a fashion blogger. However, here is a list of 40 questions that may give you an idea of framing questions for interviewing a blogger. You can make slight changes on these questions depending upon the niche and profile of a blogger that you interview.

 

1. Can you tell our readers about yourself and your blog?
2. Describe how did you first get into blogging?
3. Can you tell me some of your strengths that really helped you in blogging?
4. How would you describe your blogging style?
6. What type of networking do you think is better to enhance your traffic to the blog?
7. What do you think is the best service a blogger can provide to his readers?
8. What would be your ideal working environment?
9. How do you manage time to run your blog efficiently?
10. What do you think is the best strategy that worked well for you to get more traffic to your blog?
11. How do you want to improve yourself in the next year?
12. What was your greatest failure and what did you learn from that?
13. Tell me about your proudest achievement?
14. Who has impacted you most in blogging and how?
15. What is your greatest achievement outside of blogging?
16. How do you think I rate your blog as an interviewer?
17. What do you do in your spare time?
18. Where would you like to be in blogging five years from now?

  1. Good list of questions! But it is also important to keep in mind the flow of the conversation. It’s so odd if you jump from left to right with your questions.

    1. Hi Marieke,

      Thank you very much for visiting the site and your comments. I totally agree with your opinion that it is odd when you ask questions in a proper order with the flow. This is just a random list of questions that is not in any particular order to follow. People can choose any question ideas from this list in the order they want it for an interview.

      Once again thanking you for visiting. Keep coming back and have your valuable opinions on the posts.

      I had gone through your first YouTube video.
