I decided to blog about money management just to really learn more about how money works. I have been obsessed at that time in reading business and financial books and I just can’t contain the knowledge that I am getting so I know I need to write about them and really release my opinion and add my personal touch.

I actually didn’t expect that much in SavingsPinay. First of all, business and finance is not very popular blogging niche in the Philippines. Second, I was just 19 years old back then and fresh from the university. I felt scared that no one will believe me.


Fortunately, after two years I was able to gain a mark in the business finance blog category. I got event invitations, partnerships and collaborations. I also garnered an average of 4000 views a month which is extremely high for me as I never imagined that the blog will have its fan base.

It all started by creating a blog, picking a blog niche, choosing a blog name and having tons of blog post ideas. And since last week I created a post on blog topics for a beauty and lifestyle blog today I’ll be blogging for those who are fascinated too in financial blogs.

Main Categories

In a financial blog you have a very focused niche. Since you chose something that talks about money and only everything that is in between the said topic.

Your main categories can be any of the below:

1. Personal Finance
2. Investing
3. Banking
4. Savings
5. Budgeting
6. Retirement

Now we can formulate blog post ideas per topic. Most of the topics that I will rely to you have been posted on my blog, SavingsPinay, already.
