How To Post On Your Blog Everyday (Part 2)

I’m back to continue on what I left off the last post. Welcome back to learn more on how to post your blog consistently everyday.

3. Search For Forums

This is the same as searching for blogs with similar topic with your own blog. You can search for forums that discusses about problems, issues or just to share and update each other on current issues. Forum is a great place to get an idea of what difficulties people face. It is also a source of discussion on how to resolve the problems raised by members or to get a deeper understanding of the topics involved.

Learning the problems and getting the solution to those problems is a good post for your blog. People are always searching for solutions to their problems. Once you understand the underlying problems or issues and have a workable solution to it, you can even do a 2 post series. The first post to highlight the problems or issues. The 2nd post provide the solution. This way, you also create suspense and readers’ anticipation for more information.

Reading forums is also a good way to build your knowledge on your interest or passion. You will be able to learn more when you participant and ask questions or discuss with other members.

Take some time to read the forums first, and assess if the topics raised are inline with your interest. Once you are comfortable with the forum, you can join as a member and slowly participate in the discussion and also help out those who have problems. This is again making friends through the forum. Having friends in forums can also help you to attract traffic to your blog to increase your readership.

4. Read Magazines and Newspapers

Magazines and newspapers are a good source of current issues. You can subscribe to a specialised magazine that is inline with what you love, eg a car enthusiast will subscribe to a few car magazine to read up on what’s hot now or to learn more technical stuff.

From the magazine or newspaper, you can immediately spot good topics which you can post on your blog for your readers, inviting them to give their feedback. Again, since you are working on something that you love, it won’t be a drudgery to read something that you are passionate about.

The good thing about highlighting current issues is that people with similar interest are also searching for it to get more information. This will also bring traffic to your blog.

5. Read Books

Buy a book about your interest or passion. While reading the book, you will get ideas to share with your blog readers. Since a book has a wealth of information, you can either do a book review and write a synopsis on it or you can use some of the content and do a series of posts on your blog. However, you have to be careful of not plagiarizing the author’s work. You still need to rework on the ideas that you learn from the book. Or you can give credit to the author by mentioning that the series of posts is taken from a certain book written by certain author.

The point is not to claim something which you have taken from other authors.

There are many other ways to getting ideas for your blog post. Stay tuned for the final part where I’ll share with you my favourite way of getting ideas for my blogs. I would love to hear how do you get ideas for your blog as well.
