I also like the idea of using content selling webites like http://buyprivatelabelcontent.com. They seem to offer everything that an online business needs ….especially useful for people like me who don’t have much time but want to make some money online by buying content and adsense websites etc.

Nice post - not too long but with some great ideas in there! I personally find that subscribing to many blogs within my niche does the trick in terms of generating new ideas for content… you just have to be careful not to get into the habit of repeating what’s out there and instead ensure that you put an original slant on it.

I have two blogs and the news alerts make great posts, articles, etc for one but for the other I really struggle. The other site is a very niche site that I cannot find much material on the internet regarding since it is more of history, so I end up hitting the library for that one.

Its always good to know you are on the right path. I subscribed to some Google alerts just this morning

Thanks for this post - good timing for me. And no endless waffeling to get to the point either.

On my blog, we have a circle of blogs writing then same thing, so we pretty much rewrite what they wrote with new content and just slap it with a VIA whoever wrote it first.

Wow!! nice post that cleared my sense of writing articles. With this i can expand my knowledge of writing. Thanks mate

I usually write articles for my school newspaper, and I always lack of Ideas, your tips is sure to work.
Thanks Again, and Great Article!

I enjoy carrying a pad around with me so that when moments of inspiration hit, or when people ask questions that would carry over well to a blog topic, I can jot them down before I forget!

[Reply]

Thanks for the insight in to where you get your ideas from. I have wanted to start a blog for a while, but ideas seem to be the main stopping me and always considered that blog owners just had the gift of the gab. Now I see its a combination of both, as long as you put your view on a subject or interpret it in your own way then I guess its unique. I like Leon’s idea also, I used to do the same thing when I designed logo’s would carry a note pad around and when I had inspiration sketch it down, but have never connected that with writing.

Accepting the fact that you need help from others too is one way to broaden your knowledge on different things.

The thought of rewriting my blog never occurs to me, but it make sense, most readers do not read the end of your blog, since it is not a book. Good tip!

[Reply]

I get alot of my ideas from Google News alerts. I had not heard of Alltop before so I will have to check this out for a few posts ideas.

[Reply]

I will suggest to add at your post a no. 6 way of getting inspiration - from daily life:
- what people really need
- questions you’ve been asked by people - see your post about RSS - people keep asking about it
- interesting situations/results in your work (and you are allowed to share )
- controversial topics - people still haven’t decided in a way o another

[Reply]

I loved the idea about rewriting your own stuff that could save loads of time and for sure not many would notice

I think writing articles can be a drag but it still remains one of the best ways to promote a site. Iv found a great way to do it is to cut and paste snippets from other articles into a word doc and then construct a good article out of all the bits.

[Reply]

Nice post, thanks for sharing this information with us, when it comes to writing blogs sometimes i know what i am going to write about but other times it takes me a while to think of something. I am going to use some of these ideas you have suggested and see if they help.

I’v found a great way to do it is to cut and paste snippets from other articles into a notepad text and then construct a good article out of all the bits to your website

As alluded to in previous comments - the offline world is an excellent source of inspiration and ideas i.e. look at the best selling books related to your blog topic. Along similar lines to article sites like Ezines, Squidoo has some excellent “lenses” on many, many topics.

nice post and good information that make me inspiration to writing blogs, thanks for sharing

[Reply]

very good

[Reply]

Thanks..

[Reply]

nice ideas, also I would like to add 2 sites for ideas. WikiHow.com and eHow.com

[Reply]

Excellent post to use as a starting point. I’d like to also point out that, when you’re creating content for your own Web sites and blogs, you should keep all that original content in those places and not spread it throughout the Internet via article sites like EzineArticles.com. This way the search engines see that your site(s) have original, unduplicated content. For my blogs, I write original entries, and for article submission sites, I write a few articles a week that I don’t care where or how often they get distributed. Hope that is helpful…

Google alert is an effective way to get insight which stimulates our own idea.

[Reply]

Nice tips Dan. I would also like to add forums in the list. Reading discussions in forums is really an effective way to get ideas for content because usually people ask questions there and then the answers follow. It’s a great place to learn lots of things and get ideas for content creation.

[Reply]

Ezinearticles is best one for posting articles. But they have few tough conditions. You need to Read their guidelines properly to submit and accept articles there.

[Reply]

Your recommendation are really good. I encourage for writing. I referred your post to our content writer and really appreciate your post and try to adopt your recommendations.

[Reply]

All excellent and free ways to build your articles and posts. Using these three methods and writing useful articles and posts can actually get you a nice increase in your traffic!

[Reply]

I have a blog about current events that I love to update. As for articles, they do get duplicated which is frustrating if you have spent quite a bit of time to write something original for your website.

[Reply]

Hi I really like your post, it helped me a lot to understand the fundamentals.

[Reply]

I like the idea of having some of your readers suggest articles they would like you to write as long as they aren’t to specific
