The Blog Post Secret That Keeps You Away from Blogging
Face it – sometimes writers block hits you, so the question is What to Do When You Have No Idea What to Write About on your blog?
Apply the Blog Post Secret.
This is not a blog post automator trick (aka posting “automatic” content).
This is not about writing random thoughts or ramblings.
Anyone can implement this on their blog. It’s the best blog post secret that I know.
Those who are not using it have a big disadvantage because they’re missing a ton of new opportunities.
Here’s what I’m talking about:
running e-mail (text based) interviews with fellow experts or blog owners in your niche.
For example. If your blog is about police dog training, you could create an interview via e-mail where
you ask the owner of a similar niche-targeted blog 5-10 questions about how to train your police dog without paying for a professional.
If your blog is about blogging, you could get pro bloggers answer 5-10 key questions about blogging and how to monetize your content (like I’ll do within a few days myself on this blog)
If your blog is about adsense, gather a list with fellow adsense bloggers or site owners, and e-mail them your 5-10 question interview.
You get the idea. This works on almost any imaginable niche topic, and for any type of blog.
How do you know what questions to ask in the interview?
That’s easy. Spy on similar interviews . Do a google search: “niche” + “interview”. You would get quite a few ideas from different niches, not only yours.
Or, wait until you see how I interview these bloggers, and copycat my interview formula.
The biggest advantage of running an interview with other bloggers and site owners is that besides having new content to publish on your blog, you also get traffic when the interviewee decides to add the interview on his own blog, or link to the interview directly on your blog.
In 8 out of 10 times, that’s what should happen.
Now that you see the key advantages of using this blog post secret, start running interviews with folks in your niche.
I guess that’s not a secret anymore.
Here’s a blog which I visited recently and deliver great tips about the Honest Truth About Making Money Online
The site is runned by a 18-year kid from Vietnam. That’s quite interesting, what do you say?
