A Quality Camera
The Canon Rebel T6 is a great camera. 5/5 stars!
10. Nikon D3400
If you are not into Canon, the Nikon D3400 camera is awesome too. You know your blogger friend will be needing a camera to take photos.
A photo editing subscription
If you don’t know what Picmonkey is, it is an amazing, super easy to use photo editing software. An annual subscription would be much appreciated!
12. Adobe Lightroom
13. Adobe Photoshop
… or if said blogger is savvy with Adobe tools, then definitely either Lightroom or Photoshop (or both) 🙂
Lighting Photo Studio
14. AmazonBasics Portable Photo Studio
Make photography affordable, portable, and easier than ever with the AmazonBasics Portable Photo Studio.
The one-piece collapsible photo studio features integrated LED lights that make it possible to capture high-quality images with a camera or smartphone.

Microphone
This is hands-down the best microphone you can get for someone – and its price is extremely reasonable too!
Coffee gift cards
17. Starbucks Gift Card
A gift card to Starbucks will be very well-appreciated by bloggers. We bloggers have to work somewhere, right? And it’s probably at a Starbucks. Hahaha.
I’m typing this from Starbucks as we speak, actually!
Blogging tools
18. One Year of Siteground Hosting
If you know of anyone that wants to start a blog but haven’t done so, HOSTING is one of the essentials that he/she will need. Get this and kickstart someone’s blogging dreams for them! (this could be for yourself!)
Or if you know of someone with wix / blogspot/ weebly etc — someone that is not on a professional, self-hosted website – get this person hosting. I talk about why self-hosting is so important in my post about the best blogging platform to use. Use this link for 70% off SiteGround hosting!
19 & 20. Website themes: Divi or Studiopress
Divi & Studiopress are great themes to own. If you know of a blogger in need of a premium theme, buy either of these.
Divi is for beginners because it is so easy to customize and use.
Studiopress is a high-performing, lightweight theme for bloggers with some coding skills.
40 Amazing Gifts For Bloggers (Hundreds Of Bloggers Surveyed For Ideas!)Click To Tweet21. Tailwind Annual Subscription
Every blogger that uses Pinterest NEEDS Tailwind, the de-factor pin scheduler that will save any blogger a ton of time.
Plus, they provide amazing Pinterest analytics as well that every entrepreneur has to have!
Every beginner blogger needs an email service provider in order to start their email list – and Seva (formerly Convertkit) is a fantastic choice.
Essentially, an email service provider would allow one to store, manage and send mass emails to their email list. Other functions include creating opt-in forms, tagging your subscribers, and sending automated sequences.
An email service provider is critical for list building.
One of the biggest issues that bloggers and writers face is not knowing what to write about. KWFinder is a keyword research tool that would do wonders. It suggests great keyword ideas that will rank well in Google for you, and even tells you how competitive the keyword would be!
If you are thinking of upping your SEO game, this tool is great – plus the cost is very reasonable as well as a gift!
