The good thing is that finding dynamite topics is far from hard\u2014it\u2019s actually quite simple.<\/p>\n<h2>Method 1: Know Your Readers<\/h2>\n<p>Knowing what your readers want to read is huge, and this can provide a fountainhead of powerful information that you can use. Let\u2019s say that you\u2019re a florist that provides wedding floral arrangements for your customers. If you know that the majority of your customers are twenty-somethings that are getting married for the first time, you must use this information as leverage. Here\u2019s a checklist of valuable intel that you need:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What they usually want from your business<\/li>\n<li>The buying history of your average customer<\/li>\n<li>The age, gender, and interests of your average customer<\/li>\n<li>Their budget, income, how much they\u2019re willing to pay, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>So, let\u2019s go back to the wedding florist example. You don\u2019t want a generic blog post about flowers, as that will bore them. Unless your readers are super-enthusiasts when it comes to all things floral, they will not want to sit through a humdrum blog post. Expect your readers to have other things to do. But if you write a blog post that appeals to their interests, like:<\/p>\n<p>5 Ways to Liven Up Your Wedding Reception Using Floral Arrangements<\/p>\n<p>How to Use Flowers to Decorate Your Wedding on the Cheap<\/p>\n<p>How to Impress Your Wedding Guests With Exotic Floral Arrangements<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re a wedding florist, those topics are great, as they use the interests of your readers and customers as a springboard for your blog topics. Relevance goes a long way to attract your readers to your posts.<\/p>\n<p>Now, you may be wondering how to extract valuable intel about your customers. Here\u2019s how:<\/p>\n<p>What are the common questions that your customers ask you? Use those commonly asked questions as blog topics.<\/p>\n<p>OR<\/p>\n<p><b>Use a survey that finds out what you need to know. <\/b><\/p>\n<p>Both of these methods work terrifically, because your customers are directly divulging important info. Knowing the average reader profile will enable the blog posts to practically write themselves.<\/p>\n<h2>Method 2: Read Popular Blogs in Your Industry<\/h2>\n<p>Whenever you find yourself stuck on what topic to write about, find the top blogs in your industry or market and see what they\u2019re writing about. You\u2019ll be surprised at how useful this is, as there is always a great topic or new perspective that you\u2019ll discover. It should go without saying: Don\u2019t Plagiarize. But you can adopt a specific idea or topic so that you have the inspiration you need to write a fresh blog post. Use these popular blogs and craft your own unique commentary.<\/p>\n<h2>Method 3: Look at Blog Comments<\/h2>\n<p>There are pieces of gold within every active blog community. This gold can be found in the comments section. Whether it\u2019s on your blog or another popular blog in the industry, the questions\/discussions\/arguments that you\u2019ll find in the comments will provide a never-ending cascade of interesting, relevant topics that will captivate the attention of your readers.<\/p>\n<p>The excuse of \u201cI don\u2019t know what to write about\u201d should be a relic of the past with these tips. These 3 tips are built on this principle:<\/p>\n<p><b>Know who you\u2019re writing for and you\u2019ll never run out of things to write about. <\/b><\/p>\n<p>Understand that and you\u2019ll never be stuck on what to write about again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the hardest parts of writing a blog post is finding an exciting topic to use.
