A creative way to combine two niches?
I had been maintaining two blogs focusing on two different niches - tech stuff(computer world) and lifestyle(life hacks and short stories) - but now I want to get my own domain.
I have heard that a blog must only focus on one niche or a set of similar niches, so will having lifestyle hacks and tech stuff in one blog, be unprofessional?
Or is there a creative(or trendy) way to put both in one?

Having your own domain does not force you to have only one blog. You can very easily set up two blogs on one domain. It is likely that you have essentially three audiences:
- People who like tech stuff
- People who like lifestyle stuff
- People who like your writing
Combining the two blogs serves only the third audience. The other two audiences now have a blog that interests them 50% of the time at most, and that may not be worth their while.
What you could do is keep the two blogs separate, but list new posts from each blog in a sidebar on the other. That way you would serve all three of your audiences.
