3 Best Blogs to Follow About Surviving
By Joseph Mclean
The Web is overflowing with blogs, each more interesting than the next one, and thousands similar to one another. So, when you are interested in reading some good content on a topic, you have to choose between so many options, it makes your head spin every time. This is no exception for the preparedness and survival community out there.
“We all want to survive. It is in our nature. Give an interesting survival topic to a person, say it right, and it will peak their interest instantly. You can hardly say the same about many other topics.” – says George Peyer, one of the most experienced dissertation writers and bloggers.
When searching for the best blog that teaches you of survival, it is only natural to seek one that provides excellent content. In this list you will find a very limited number of blogs to follow about surviving. Providing you with a dozen or more will take more time than most people have and with the frequency of sharing inspiring blogs of these three choices, you won’t have the time or wish to look anywhere else.
The Survival Mom
True, this blog might not be the first thing that pops into the mind of preppers in general. But, if you give it a shot, you’ll learn that it is one of the most creative and informational blogs that attracts both women and men.
It isn’t just a blog of a mom complaining of her busy motherhood or sharing recipes. Unlike the traditional blogs that carry the word ‘mom’ in them, Lisa, the survival mom, represents a unique source for any modern prepper who has a family. Her advice and tips are constantly read and used by both men and women, which can be clearly seen on the very successful blog.
As Lisa says, she knew nothing about blogging when she first started this blog six years ago. Lisa Bedford only had an idea to share her prepper’s knowledge and experience with others. At this point, who knew that her blog would reach the top of almost every survival blog list on the Web?
With a grand range of articles on preparedness and survival, The Survival Mom will certainly keep you entertained and prepared. Reading about kiddie pools is surely not something you find on your regular preparedness website, and this is just one of the creative ideas of this very talented blogger.
Begin with camping and traveling tips and tricks, go down the road toward cooking and saving tips, and finish off with something as common as feet blisters – following this blog is an amazing experience that never ends! Just as soon as you think you know it all, Lisa will surprise you with something you had no idea could ever happen!
The Survivalist Blog
Created and updated by M.D. Creekmore, this blog has a very interesting backstory. The creator of this popular blog decided to go off grid and purchase two acres of land for $2,000. He parked his 26-foot trailer right there on the spot, left the rat-race, and started living a whole new life right there, in the middle of nowhere.
Since he did this, he shared his stories and gave advice based on what happens in his life. The unique insight and situation make this blog different than any other you will find on the Web. That’s what makes it so special – The Survivalist Blog is somewhat of a series of happenings in the life of one survivalist.
On this blog, you can find different categories and quite the large range of useful articles. The prepping page helps you find the perfect bug-out location, tells you which books to read and how to assemble a survival kit. Homesteading lists animals you should keep and tips for keeping them, as well as some food preparation and storing ideas and tricks.
Those who want to know more about survival and related sports can visit the sections for guns, hunting and finish, while the DIY section will surely intrigue those with a creative mind.
The Survivalist Blog has everything for everyone, all in one spot and told in the words of a true survivalist. This is not a person who just shares tricks and advise that tells you how to survive – he is actually out there surviving every day, and is more than glad to guide you through it.
