Do you ever have trouble writing articles?

You don't really know where to get started? You don't know what to write about to attract your target market?

well....

Here's a tip I learned from a marketing genius of mine and it works very well.

Anytime you have writers block and you don't really know what to write about when your creating articles, blog posts, etc....

Simply go to a forum related to your niche...
Look for the threads that get a lot of views...

(those are obviously hot topics)

and write about that topic!

Don't make it harder than it has to be.

Below is a link to a forum search engine to help you get going.

Hope this helps for you guys/gals out their with writers block


Have a great day,
Daniel Steven

    Another good tip would be to search for videos on YouTube. Note down the main points and recreate your own article or blog post.

    Great tips!

    Another good idea would be to go to go offline and check a magazine; there are magazines for any niche. They have their fingers on the pulse, and usually know exactly what the public are interested in reading about.

    And, if you are looking for ideas in a really focused topic area, do a search on Google Books, and click on the link on the right that says "Magazines".

      I usually start digging through my plr topics for ideas. But, another idea that you can do is take one of your really good subpoints from a previous article and create a brand new article. Just expand on that point...research and dig deeper.

    I agree with the Yahoo Answers thing. It is a bit repetitive, but is still useful for some basic research.

    One technique I like using is merely looking at article titles (not content) for ideas. Works for me all the time, and also ensures that I write unique content (because I'm not looking at the original article's content).

    Hey...you're letting our secrets out! ;-)
    Great advice. In fact, once you start developing a list...you might also start to 'feel' the 'beat on the street' from the questions your subscribers ask. The only thing I'd add is that you should also focus on writing about what YOUR list wants to hear about.

    To Your Success,

    hi there,
    what i sometimes do is to paste an article i've written into Word and use the summary tools. It will show the autosummarize tool. I set the % to about 75% to get most of the main points. Then I rewrite again in my own words.
    Hope that helps.

    The forum search engine is okay.
    However I think It has way too much advertising to be taken seriously.

    Similarly, if you have to stop writing in the middle of an article or e-book, stop writing in the middle of a sentence.

    I read once that Oscar Wilde used to use this trick to pick up his train of thought again. I've tried it and it works. Now I always
