Trying to create content to answer my audience's questions. What are yours?

5 replies
I'm starting a blog about PTSD, treatments for PTSD, self-help techniques, etc. What would you like to know about PTSD or how to get better?

If you or someone you know has PTSD, what are some questions you have? What are some things you would like to know about?

I will use these ideas to create the foundation of my content.

(Just some background on me, I have studied psychology and PTSD since 2006, I have a Master s in counseling psychology, and I have trained for 2 years as a therapist. I now work as a freelance writer.)

    You should check out Quora and Yahoo answers.

    You should be on PTSD forums, blogs, and informative websites about it instead of an Internet Marketing Forum.

      If I were you, I would use a tool like Survey Monkey, get a descriptive domain name, then spend a little money and drive very targeted traffic to your survey with a relevant and valuable "free report" on PTSD as the incentive to take the survey. Also set up a lead capture so you can begin building a list in the niche.

      Questions like you're asking are self-promoting and that is not allowed here in the Main Discussion Forum.

      The very best to you,

        Are you licensed as a therapist treating PTSD? Have you practiced as a therapist (beyond the training)?

        If so, you already know the questions people with PTSD ask. You know the two most accepted treatments for PTSD are cognitive therapy and exposure therapy.

        Providing information, resources, latest studies, societal attitudes ...etc...could be very helpful for some. I know several people with PTSD and had a brush with it myself some years ago. I would never advise them to go to a blog for treatment or answers. I might advise them to visit a blog by a trained professional offering resources/information only.

        Trying to use this forum for data gathering for your site won't work well. Random questions from people not associated with medicine/psychology/PTSD are not what you need.
