When you first start your blog, you have so much to say that you
have no problem posting every day. After a while, you begin to
run out of ideas and you can’t seem to come up with fresh
content. Every blogger has this problem from time to time. So how
do you keep the blog going – keep it fresh and full of value?
Here are some ideas:

Do a top 10 list – “The top 10 mistakes people do when trying
_______ for the first time.” “The top 10 tips for ______.” Lists
tend to be easier to write and take less time to formulate. If
you can’t come up with 10, perhaps you can make it the top 3 or
top 5.

Interview an expert – Approach someone who is very knowledgeable
in your blog niche and you may find they’ll be happy to do an
interview, especially if they have a new product just launched
and would like the exposure. Put together some thoughtful
questions and ask them to write out their answers. The beauty of
this blog post is that aside from asking the questions, the
interviewee does all the work!

Answer a recurring question/problem – Go to the forums you
frequent in your niche and look for a recurring question that
people have. Doing a little research and coming up with answers
makes for an excellent blog post. You also can become the
expert.

Blog about other blog posts – Have you read a blog post recently
that caused you to stop and think, or offered up a huge
glittering gem of priceless information? Blog your opinions,
insights, and inspiration you’ve gotten from that person’s post.
Be sure to provide a link back so your readers can read the
original post.

Use the weather – Look around you at the season and tie it into
your niche. Does the hot weather inspire you to share a story on
your internet marketing blog about going fishing while your
internet marketing business is still making you money? Does the 4
feet of snow outside make you think about reading your favorite
books? If so, you can do a niche-related book review with your
Amazon or other affiliate links attached.

What’s up in your business world – Blog about what you’re working
on now. Using a personal tone, explain what your current project
is. Letting a few tidbits escape builds anticipation and helps
your readers feel like they’re now on the “inside”.
