Content Writing Sources

by Escobar
7 replies
Hi all,

I'm brainstorming at the moment trying to find sources i can use to help me with writing posts.

Besides, twitter trends, and selecting newsfeeds of niches, what other sources online can i use to get ideas for a blog.

My niche is in the shopping field, right, so where can i got to find out the latest in shopping?

I'm hoping someone out there knows of a search engine or something where i can get neverending ideas for content in any niche.

This would really help me guys,

thanks.

    oh, some ideas i have for any niche are:

    newspapers - all kinds
    tv commercials,
    youtube (channels, etc)
    dmoz
    google search for news on a particular niche

    there's definitely more ideas, most likely better than these, so please share...

    oh yeah, these two as well

    Magazines are a great place to see what's hot. eBay best sellers works really well too.

      Jeremy Palmer recommends looking at magazines for your niche, not only to see what's hot, but also for inspiration on content. Because we all know how easy it is to eat through your first set of keywords and be at a loss for what else to write about without repeating ourselves without repeating ourselves without repeating ourselves....

        I'm so glad to hear that it's not just me who eats through keywords rather quickly, lol.

        Thanks guys

          So start over on the same list of keywords. Surely you can come up with a different angle with the same keywords?

          There isn't any rule that says you can only write about a certain keyword phrase only once.
