There could be other categories too such as multi-blogger blogs, auto blogs etc. Of course some of them fall into the content farm category that Google is addressing right now
perfectly right, blogging is just a sharing of knowledge.

Great tips. A blogger should have a unique voice.
I realized the importance of Niche blogging recently. Experimented with it & I’m getting success with it
Blogging is all about sharing knowledge in your own way. The line “Don’t blog only for money, but for passion.” always proved to be true.
Hi,
Really nice, indeed those are all the blog types, I wasn’t expecting to see so many, really great types. Also, you are right about the money-passion thing, in order to keep the business going alright you must think good, don’t “poison” your thinking and working style with money. You must do your job for passion too, if there is no passion you will soon get demotivated and stop working and waste all the time spent on working and all the work so it’s not worth. Thanks for sharing this great article!
Best regards,
Maria
i don’t no before that tags can bring traffic from search engines , thanks for the share
Niche Blogs are becoming popular these days due to the ability of making money online
Blogging has turned more like an industry with the growth in volume of blogs
I am also currently a Niche blogger…going to start a personal blog soon..
I think you forgot to mention the “news blog”. Despite news sites are very popular, news blogs are different.
Good information about types of blogs!
Some infographics would have added value!
Great resource for beginners though.
I prefer niche blogging because It attracts user's attention because it works like specialist. I mean to say one can find all the seo realted things(say) at one place for example searchenginejournal, it has niche SEO. I love it but the problem with niche bloggers is they restricts themselves quite a bit.
