Many a times you will find yourself dumbstruck with no more options or topics to write a new blog post. Now this is a very common problem reported by most of the bloggers who are new to the field or someone who have been writing for quite sometime. But then the big Question Mark comes as to from where do I get a good blog topic that can really boast my blog views. With a lot of articles reading and surfing through the Internet I finally ended up with a list of really efficient ways that can help you in real time. So here we go with the most common parts which we normally neglect.
1. Personal Experience:
This is in fact the most important and also the most received topics of all time. Just imagine what a true experience can do when you share them with your readers. People are always hungry to hear true stories that are really interesting. All stories are not interesting but the way they are told can really make them interesting. So go along the way and share your true stories that you may have still kept in the dark. Who knows that your one story can make you famous one day!!!!
2. Yahoo answers:
Whenever I get a doubt in any field I simply land in Yahoo Answers!, the best internet tool of all time. And the best part is that I get a response within minutes that too from real users. What else do you need when real persons come to your rescue with whatever problem you face? But little did I know that this problem solving site can solve my blogging problems as well. Just visit the site and browse through the questions asked by the users. I can bet that you will be short of papers while jotting down the topics for your next post!!!
3. Google Keyword Search Tool:
I hope that you must have heard about this awesome tool. Actually every product from Google has its own long list of awesomeness. If you have not heard then it is perhaps the best time to explore this site. Here you will be given all the most searched keyword about recent times. You can get an idea about what people around the world are mostly interested in nowadays. Moreover if you want specific term related keywords then also you will return happy. Suppose you have a blog about cooking, then you simply need to search with the keyword cooking and Google does the rest for you.
4. Get a Sticky Note:
The topic seems trendy, isn’t it?? Actually it has to do a lot with generating ideas. Keep on thinking about evergreen prefixes for the next topic. For example, “Top 10..” , “Best ..”, “How to..” etc. Just imagine how many new topics you can create with just one single prefix!! Moreover these evergreen topics will go on inviting viewers for a long time as they will never die. That’s why they are called evergreen topics.
5. Check Comments on your Posts:
Where else can you get a better view of what your readers actually expect from you? Just go on visiting your post comments and see what type of comments you visitors have posted. You will rightly get an idea about your strengths and will surely build up confidence for a more heartrending post next time. Adding to it you may also discover some suggestions from your fellow readers. This can also make you relax a bit when you get obsessed with your blog. Blogging is just a way to relax and express your feelings. So be cool and enjoy the pleasure of blogging.
6. Make a survey of the hits in your blog:
This can also give you a lot of ideas about what to write. Just see what your readers like and try to come up with something even more interesting. This will surely make your readers happy and will strengthen the bond. When you get to see that your readers like your posts about new phone arrivals then go on posting about the new phones. Even you can make this as your backup plan. Whenever you are out of topic then you know what exactly you need to do.
7. Have a research on your rivals:
Any field you are in, you need to get updated with the world. The same applies in blogging. So its very much advisable to follow some real good blogs quite frequently and get updated with what they are posting about. This can give you a lot of topics about recent times which will also keep the traffic flowing. But you should only pick the topic not the content. Blogging world is strictly against plagiarism.
8. Novels are your best friend:
I have been hearing this line since my childhood. But believe me the phrase is fully true. You get to learn so many things when you read novels. At times I really feel that the character in the story resembles me. Those are the situations I like the most. While reading a novel you must have come across many trendy phrases, situations, advices etc. That is exactly the way novels can help you. Mould these situations into your next blog topic and they will surely be loved.
9. Subscribe for Blogpost sites:
You are completely out of the race if you do not submit your blog to various blogsites. There are scads of such sites where you can submit your blog and your posts as well. Some examples are StumbleUpon Buzz, Delicious, Indiblogger etc. Here lots of blogger post their posts and the site ranks the various posts according to their popularity. So you can easily find out topics which are popular and make up your own post out of it. Moreover if you submit your post you can get a large viewer base which solves two of your problems at a single go.
10. Record on the Go:
Ideas come at a flash and then disappear. You must have felt the truth beyond these words. So why take a risk?? You just need to buy a notebook or a small pad which you can keep with you at all times. As soon as you get a good topic just jot it down. Moreover you can also get trendy topics at roadside hoardings, malls, bus stop etc. Why not capture those topics for future use? In this way you will be loaded with topics and wont find time to write about all.
So that was indeed a long list of advice. But I hope that you liked it. If you follow these ways then I can say that you will never get out of ideas. Source of getting ideas differ from person to person and in that case I may conflict with some readers. In such a situation I would love to know your unique ways of getting ideas. So hope to hear from you and Happy Blogging!!
