You have written several articles and published them to article directories. You have posted two blog posts a week for several weeks. You need more articles and blog posts and you are out of ideas on what to write about. You have exhausted all the topic ideas you have been thinking about for a long time and now it seems like you just sit and stare at the word processor monitor waiting for an topic idea to show up. You plan to write several more articles so you need many ideas. Well coach, what do I do now.
I am going to suggest three thing to try to get those ideas flowing. These three things are all in front of you if you punch the right keys on your computer.
1. Type in Amazon.com in the address bar of your browser. What makes Amazon.com so useful as a research tool for getting new ideas is their searchable database of books. There are thousands of great ideas lurking in there if you just know how to use it .Locate the search form and select books from the drop down menu. Type in your niche or blog specialty and search for books with that information in the title. Depending upon the results you could then search for your main keywords. Your search could have listed several hundred books on the subject. Look over the titles and write down as many ideas as you find. Your should have a long list. Changing your search term from say article marketing to bum marketing will provide even more ideas. Look for the different subcategories of books written about the subject, identifying different themes, styles and types.
2. Visit your favorite forums for your area of interest. Scan the forum post topics. The forum topic with a long thread of participation may provide you with a relevant article topic. A good thing about a forum topic with a long thread of comments is that a lot of your article topic research is contained in the post comments. I am not advocating plagiarizing the post content. Reading the comments and writing down notes is not plagiarizing. I find the form posts generally very interesting and educational. I usually end spending more time reading the forum posts and comments than I had planned. That takes away the time I wanted to do something else.
There are usually several forums in your area of interest. Searching several forums may not only provide more article ideas, but, could also furnish additional research material for your article. Besides, it is quite an education.
3. Visit a popular article directory. Ezineartilces seems to be a very popular directory. There are other excellent article directories that can be found with an internet search. Article directories file the article in categories. Locate the your categories of interest and look over the more recent submissions. Check related categories for even more possible article topics. Remember, you don t want to copy the article title. You want to borrow ideas. By viewing the titles of the articles submitted you can gain ideas of how to construct your article titles. By that I mean are the titles primarily “how to” , “5 ways”, “easy and fun way” etc.
The above three article topic idea generators are used by many article writers. They also provide topics that are of current interest. An article with a pulling subject line written on a topic of current interest will give you head start on marketing your article.
