Your blog’s editorial window (“niche,” although that’s the wrong word) — what your blog is generally about or tends to focus on
how frequent the blog is updated (i.e. what is your posting day — every Tuesday at 8 p.m. is a good starting point)

Once you’ve done the above, copy and paste the above into a new static page (“About”), edit it here and there, and publish. Add a link into your blog menu for the About.
