Blog Posting Ideas (Pt. 1)

ideaDespite how much you write, it is possible you may feel that you still have not tapped your target niche. This may leave you feeling like you have run out of content, and wondering how or where you can get ideas for posting with to keep things fresh. Well here are some ideas for you to look into (centering on online money making schemes):

Make updates on old posts of yours -

If you have been posting about online moneymaking, then you have probably covered such topics as affiliates, blogging, ad-words, and ad-sense. The chances are good that some or all of your information is out of date now, and are in need of edits and updating. You could cover things like changes in the terms of service with one of the network partners, or a new platform to blog with that offers new features. Updating details like these will bring more eyes back to your blog, and perhaps garner some new ones.

Be Personal –

A lot of blogs are written in a cold and informal manner. This makes them utterly boring. If you are writing about how to make money online, your readers will likely be more interested in hearing about how you have made money, especially by using the techniques you outline. On the flip side, if things didn’t pan out so well, write about that too. Everyone loves a winner, but it’s nice to share in the pain too, so to speak. If all you ever talk about is making money, but your readers don’t always have as much luck, they will eventually leave, seeing you as fake, or unreliable.

Interview experts in the field –

You may not be an expert in the field you choose to blog about, but it can help. Chances are, however, you aren’t. So inviting an expert to a questions and answers meeting could boost your credibility quite a bit. This will be true for a online moneymaking blog too, and you don’t have to be making thousands to blog about it. You could write about starting from scratch, what it was like, what worked, what didn’t, and the resulting life’s escapades therein. Having an interview with someone else who has done the same and is making good money now would be an excellent boon to your site. You could also interview people involved in the advertising networks you work with, or other popular bloggers of your line. This can also open up networking channels for you and your readers.

Blog Posting Ideas (Pt. 2)

Be a news source –

New things are always happening in the world, regardless of the topic. Advancements in technology, new ideas, or even new markets come up all of the time. Thanks to this, you really should have no problem finding things to write about. You could use RSS feeds, or subscribe to a Google Alert for the topic or topics you cover, so that you can be the first person to blog about news-worthy items and topics. You can just give your readership a heads up, or do a commentary on it. Or you could start with a heads up and announce that you will be trying it out, and report back in a month or so with your results.

Be part of the conversation –

On the internet, you are never alone. It does not matter what you are writing about, there are people who will be interested. If these people also have blogs in the same vein as yours, they can be valuable friends as well as assets. When one of them writes something good, you can make mention of it on your blog with a link to their article, and then go on to add your own commentary on it, be it agreeing with what they say or disagreeing (which could also spark a debate, which would keep things lively for a bit).

Questions and Answers –

Another great idea is to let your readers ask you questions directly. If someone poses a question that would be beneficial or informative to all of your readers, you could post your answer for all to see, so that all may learn, or ask further questions. You can also browse other popular blogs that are in your niche, looking at the user comments there to find questions to answer. By beating that user to the punch in answering the question, you can garner more eyes on your own blog.

Know thy audience –

Tools for keyword suggestion can be a great friend. Use keywords that are related to your niche in one and see what comes up. You might find ideas in the listings for topics that you haven’t covered yet that you can write about. Obviously you will want to target the keywords you found so that you can drive traffic from that search engine to your blog.

Do some reviews –

There are always things that you can review, be it a book on your niche, a service that you have been using, the ad network you have been with, sites or blogs regarding fringe elements of your niche, and the like. You really cannot ever say you have run out of ideas for posts. Everybody gets writers block from time to time. Using some or all of these suggestions when you feel you are out of ideas will help ensure that you have no problems with keeping your blog and its content fresh and appealing.

Last but not least, keep it fun. It is always hard to do something when it feels like an obligation. It grinds on you. If this happens, take a bit of a break. Instead of being a daily poster, try cutting back to three or four posts a week for a bit. This will help you rest a bit more, and will also allow it to retain it’s fun nature, instead of being just another job.
