Not Sure What to Write on Your Blog?
June 16, 2008
Writer’s Block
Everyone who writes will come across it at some point. Not knowing what to say. Sometimes not even knowing what to write about.
Do you have a blog?
Ever needed some inspiration on what to blog about? It’s hard, isn’t it, sometimes, to come up with new ideas all the time. Not only new ideas, but then good content on that idea. Blogging is supposed to be fun and easy, but it can be hard work at times. That’s why
if you’re ever stuck for inspiration you can refer to the list of resources in this post.
When you need a little help on what to write about these resources that can get you unstuck. It’s a very nice list of 12 resources that a blogger called Hans has put together. Actually you can use the list for inspiration about blog posts, articles, the basis for a report, anything really.
Now I didn’t create the list of 12 things to give you inspiration. That was done by Hans over at Catch The Posts which is why I’ve linked to the full list, so he gets credit where it’s due, but here’s the Cliff Notes version of that list.
- Set alerts on specific keywords.
- Visit new blogs on your niche.
- Browse the most popular articles from other blogs on your niche.
- Look at what people are looking for.
- Look at what people is looking for on your blog.
- Encourage your audience to suggest topic or ask questions.
- Browse through Social Media.
- Browse forums on your niche.
- Look at the most popular things.
- Look for the most recent things.
- Browse articles directories.
- Pay attention to your daily experiences.
Hans goes into more detail about the list and offers some useful links so it’s worth a look.
By the way, one thing you should do on your own blog is give credit where it’s due and offer a link to a post that you found useful. I think this post Hans wrote might be useful for some of my readers and I’m happy to offer you a link to it because it’s useful information.
Even though it takes you off my blog, I hope you remember that I’m looking out for information for you all the time and I’m not afraid to share it.
