Women’s fashion has always been a huge topic of discussion. This can clearly be seen by all of the women who are actively starting fashion social media accounts and blogs of their own. In recent years, we have discovered a huge demand for content about men’s fashion as well. This has led to a new niche for fashion bloggers.
The market for men’s fashion blogs is less saturated than the one for women. However, it is still pretty competitive, so you need to understand the niche before trying to tackle it.

The top of the site has seven menus with links to broad categories of articles, including fashion, style, hair and lifestyle. Above the fold, there is a content scroller with links to the five most recent posts.
Further down the page, the site is formatted with several <div> tags. One has a one column post with recent content. Halfway down the page, there is a section where content is displayed in three columns.
Since the site is optimized for a number of lifestyle related topics, it doesn’t rank for fashion related keywords in Google. It also ranks in the number one spot on the SERPs for terms such as “hottest women” and “receding hairline.”
2. Mainline Menswear Blog
Mainline Menswear Blog also covers a gambit of posts including fashion and basic lifestyle advice. It also pays close attention to new fashion trends. The top menu has a link to a “Trends” section, which has a drop-down submenu that includes links to trends highlighted by the editors, seasonal topics and style icons.

In addition to covering fashion, grooming and lifestyle advice, this blog also has articles on travel, food and technological trends. However, most of the content focuses on fashion advice. The primary demographic seems to be men in their mid-20s to early-40s.
The homepage of Men Style Fashion tries to strike a balance between highlighting as many posts as possible and driving attention to the most popular ones. At the top of the page, it has images and headlines for five trending posts. The two most popular posts have the largest accompanying images. Below the fold, the site has a “Latest Articles” section that is divided up into two columns. Further down the page, there are two sections for style posts. The first is a scrolling content bar and the second is a collage of posts with relevant images.
Even further down the page, there is a section for lots of posts on more random topics. Many of these posts aren’t specific to fashion and lifestyle advice. They are accompanied by smaller images, presumably because the site wants to draw less attention to them.
