Gift Ideas for Bloggers

November 12, 2018 by StephanieCristi 6 Comments

Christmas is right around the corner and that means it’s also that time of the year when we bang our heads against the wall trying to think of what to get for that special someone in our life.

Last week I posted gift ideas for a traveler… but what if your loved one is a blogger?

Whether they blog for income, for fun, or a little of both, I’m sure you’re wishing for some ideas on resources that would make their lives easier!

Well, I’ve come up with some thoughtful but practical gift ideas for the blogger in your life. They range from small stocking stuffers to pretty hefty gifts so I’m sure you’ll find that there’s a gift for any budget.

Disclosure: This post contains affiliate links. This means that if you purchase any of my recommended products at the bottom of the post, I will earn a small commission at no extra charge to you. Keep in mind though, that I only post affiliate links to products and services I personally love and use myself! Purchasing through my page ensures that I am able to keep writing useful content for all of you.

Gift ideas for bloggers: to make their lives easier

1. Tailwind

Tailwind is magical. A Tailwind subscription (you get $10 off if you use my link) will take hours of work off your blogger’s plate if they’re using Pinterest to drive traffic to their blog (hint: they probably are!)

Tailwind will not only post for them, but it’ll do it at the best times to ensure their content gets seen by the most people possible.

Cool huh?

But wait… Tailwind gets even better!

2. Tailwind Tribes

If Tailwind is magical, then Tailwind Tribes is the cherry on top.

Tailwind Tribes are basically groups where bloggers post Pinterest pins they’ve made for their content.

Then, you share content made by them and they return the favor by sharing your posts.

Unfortunately, the free Tailwind Tribe account is capped at joining 5 tribes and posting 30 pins total.

But if you use my link above, you get $15 towards either a Tailwind subscription or a Tribes Powerup! Powerups increase in price depending on how much posting the user will do but if you’re feeling particularly generous, their biggest program offers unlimited tribes AND unlimited posts!

3. Planoly

If your loved blogger is into Instagram, then a Planoly account is the way to go for a gift!

Planoly is an application used to:

  • plan out their Instagram posts,
  • schedule and publish photos automatically,
  • read and reply to comments,
  • and analyze engagement on posts.

Needless to say, it’s a fantastic tool for bloggers and influencers killing it on Instagram!

4. Content Planner

This content planner is the only one in print designed for bloggers and social media planners, with stickers for nearly all social media sites.

If your techy blogger also has a love of putting pen to paper, then this beautiful content planner will not only make their day but also keep them incredibly organized!

5. Evernote

Evernote is one of the top tools I use on a daily basis for my blog. I use it to organize my ideas for blog posts, categories, and tags.

I also track blog post structures, meaning what images and resources go with different blog categories.

Evernote syncs across my phone, laptop, and desktop and this way I always have my content right at my fingertips 🙂

6. Daily Greatness Business Planner

I have a blog post about journaling for business in the works but if the blogger in your life is into paper and pencil journaling, they NEED this planner. It will not only get them more organized, but they’ll truly start seeing their blog as a business, with a business plan, quarterly goals, and budget.

7. Milotree

Milotree is great for growing your blogger’s social media following! You can see it in action on this site as well as my other site Tutorintinseltown.com but basically, it’s a plugin that allows you to recommend your social media pages to your blog visitors.

You can connect your Instagram, Pinterest, Facebook, Youtube, and email list and grow them all simultaneously through the traffic you’re already generating to your site!

After all, if someone reached you via Twitter, they may not know you’re active on Youtube as well, so it’s a great way to let your readers know where to find you in the social media world.

Gift ideas for bloggers: cute stuff

And if your blogger is anything like me, their favorite way to crank out the content is in their cozy little work nook with a coffee and some comfy clothes.

If they ARE, I’ve got some cute stocking stuffer ideas for you below.

I’ve made each photo a link to the item on Amazon so if you see something you like, be sure to click through and put these goodies in your Amazon cart!

Gift ideas for bloggers: pro tip

Courses!!!

If you want to set your blogger up for success, my biggest recommendation is to gift them a blogging course!

11. It’s a Lovely Life’s Travel Blogging Fast Track

This course on becoming a travel blogger is absolutely the way to go if your loved blogger is looking to get into travel blogging! I personally took this course and got SO much out of it! The Travel Blogging Fast Track not only taught me the types of content I should be making for my travel readers but how best to go about my travel blogging in order to set myself up for success.

If your blogger is considering entering the travel blogging sphere,  or if they’re already in it but not quite sure how to monetize their work, I HIGHLY recommend taking this course. You’ll be amazed at how quickly their skills grow when it comes to creating content.

12. 5 Day Start A Money Making Blog Crash Course

The 5 Day Start a Money Making Blog Crash Course (also from It’s a Lovely Life) is another incredible course to gift your blogger if they’re just starting out on their blogging journey.

It’s a free course but hey, it’s the thought that counts!

And signing up your blogger for this course is not only thoughtful, but it’ll set them up to start blogging on the right foot. 🙂

TL;DR

I hope I’ve given you some useful gift ideas for bloggers in your life.

Let me know below what gift ideas for bloggers caught your eye the most, and if you’re a blogger yourself, maybe you might want to drop a hint and share this blog post with your family and friends! 😉
