Even if I get one idea, how about next time or when finish writing all the ideas you got. Then, I would have to spend another time thinking. And might get nothing as well, therefore, post schedule would be ruined.
If you notice in the title, I said more ideas. Which means you already have one. And this post will help you to get ready for the next time. Make sure the table is full of ideas just in case of emergence or need something to replace. It’s good to have them ready.

These are tips on How to get more ideas for a blog post is just what I do ad follow. And if you have one, you can share it in the comment below. But I’m going to share 3 of the ideas and tips that can help to get new blog post ideas.
1. Explore
First thing I highly recommend, and what I usually do now when I get stuck. Also, when my mind is empty. Because sometimes you don’t know where to start and end up feeling empty mind. I Explore the internet and see what others do or share.
Well, this one doesn’t mean to copy them. That won’t be good because you want to be original. But I would take them as an inspiration for what to write. I use this as a way to find out what other people have done. So I know how far things could get. And then, it helps me to get more ideas. What possible ideas could be done. Possibilities are limitless and you can get a lot of ideas from just one idea or topic.
It’s like at first, your mind might be empty because there is nothing you can do. Sometimes don’t know what else to do. But after seeing other people doing other things. You would be like “Oh, so I can do that” and therefore, you open your mind to more things to think of. Based on that, more ideas will pop into your mind. And that’s one way how to get more ideas for a blog post.
From there, it gives you more ideas to build on your own and get creative with ideas to share. And the more you explore the internet, there will be tons and tons of new ideas. You don’t have to follow the same ones you see but from them, new ones will pop into your mind.
This is one of the things I found myself doing that I should’ve done earlier. And lately, I’ve been inspired by a lot of bloggers to share and write about more ideas. It doesn’t have to be the same idea. But from that idea, more ideas could come to your mind. If that makes sense, you know.
Additional note:
It could be an upgrade to an old idea that you found on the internet. This is what I meant by new ideas. Well, you will get original ideas as well. But this is just an example of what you will get from doing this and it helped me a lot in finding new ideas.
- Try looking for more ideas that people are interested in because that will help you with your business or blog growth.
- If you find an idea to upgrade, make sure to include the source. And maybe collaborate with them for more business or blog growth as well.
- Use keyword searching on content discovery websites or Google and you will find tons of ideas and other people writing about them. SEO tools are also a great option for you to use looking for more blog posts or even DIY project ideas.
2. Stay focused
This is another thing that I found recently. I don’t know about you guys, but that’s true haha. Like I said on my Twitter, things this year will be different. I think every year things are changing and we need to pay attention to that as well while we looking for ideas. This tip on how to get more ideas for a blog post might not be direct but it’s really helpful.
Anyway, another way to get more ideas is by staying focused. What does that mean? Well, If you are like me, Doing crafty projects, or even cooking. During the process of making the recipe or any DIY idea, put on your mind that you looking for new post ideas.
While you making the recipe or DIY project, stay focused and look for ideas that you can turn into a blog post. You will be surprised by the number of ideas that you can write about them and all of them are original. You might find people already written about some, but most of them should be original unless it’s something that has been discovered before.
Trust me, this would put a highlight on things you didn’t even know you could write about. You might even get new ones that haven’t been posted on the internet yet. This will give a lead because you sharing about things important and people haven’t yet posted about it.
Of course, you would have to look more at the keywords and everything before actually publishing it or thinking to write about it. Since it’s related to the things you do and writes about, it doesn’t matter if it’s a new post idea, people would still read it, you know. And it could be a new addition to the blog for future posts.
Note
Maybe you could make it famous and people would refer to your post if they looking for information and that will give you tons of traffic. Who knows what could happen and where this idea will get you. Whatever niche or topic you do or write about, meanwhile in the process, try to lock it in with a mindset to figure out new blog posts. That would be so helpful how to get more ideas for a blog post.
This is something it will help you with one of the ways on this list. When you are focused, it’s important to follow the other one on this ti. Keep reading to know more about it and how it will help you.
3. Get back to old ideas
Like everything, sometimes we might feel lost and we need a point to start. And sometimes we get lost thinking about ideas which is something we don’t need. So going to back what we have done already and old ideas. Would give more light on things to write about. More inspiration on getting new ideas.
It could be the same idea with different items or a good upgrade that your audience will like. For example, the same recipe with a different sauce and so on. These kinda things that you could write about and it’s new. It could be also for any other niche or topic. You just need to focus and as you go through your old ideas, I’m sure you will find some good ideas.
You will get more ideas from starting by looking at old ideas. And this is something I do every time I want to write about a unique and new idea that I haven’t done, but I’m feeling lost. especially for DIY projects because sometimes I get something from them. It could be to determine which something you haven’t talked about.
Sometimes you have it on your mind but are not sure if you have or haven’t talked about it. So, either way, going back to old ideas will help to get more inspiring ideas for the next blog post. I highly recommend doing it if you want to get more blog post ideas.
So it’s safe to say that this is a pretty good point to start if you looking for more ideas. And again, I’m not sure if you do this, but I have been doing this for a long time. If you are a DIY blogger, I’m sure you will find this helpful as I have done it, and helped me as well.
If you notice, some of the new posts were inspired by old ideas. And some of my old projects were upgraded with a new and better look. Trying a new look and upgrading things. For blogging tips, it will be a way to know which one you haven’t written, and therefore if you have one in your mind, it might be the one.
4. Look from different aspects
Something that will help you to get more ideas for your blog post. And this is something I like to do as well. Because it helps me to have a variety of things to talk about. It’s not difficult to do, but it will need effort and time as well.
When you think of an idea, you can get a topic and think about different aspects that you can talk about. Maybe things that you can share your experience to help others. This way, you will get more ideas that you can post on your blog and related.
Any topic on any niche will be helpful. Try to look at the different points that you can talk about. Sometimes we take it from one point and that’s it. It’s a good idea and I found myself doing it without noticing. Then, now I’m working on developing it. Since there are a lot of topics and so many points we can think of and we need to make sure to get the best one.
You will need to make sure that it will help your readers. Therefore, when you do this, take it slow and ensure it’s helpful. It’s not anything you think of, you can talk about it with your readers if it’s not something to improve their life even with a smile.
If you don’t know which topic to choose. You can randomly pick a topic and see if you can find something to talk about it. And this is something happened to me a lot. Don’t be confused or lost thinking of a blog post idea. I’m sure there is something that can be helpful when you look for ideas from different apects.
5. Consistently write ideas on a notebook
Another way that can help you to get more ideas for your blog post. It’s good idea to write them on a note. And I say consistently, I mean sometimes you will get idea on your mind. And that could any time that was not the time of brainstorming for ideas.
So, I would say whenever you get an idea on your mind, write it on a notebook or using note app. This way, you will get a lot of ideas. Later, you will be able to pick from the list to talk about with your readers. Also, make sure to pick the one will be most helpful.
Whenever you get an idea, no matter where, just write them down. Because we are human and tend to forget about it. Sometimes we get new ideas that related to our niche. And if we don’t write them down, we will forget about it. And doing this, it will be a great way to get new ideas to post.
You can use this way with other ways as well. It will help you to get more and more ideas. This only will take a while. So, it’s not good to depend only on this one. And that’s why it’s important you do this while doing other ways.
Sometimes we don’t notice it and it happened to me as well. However, now I pay attention to everything. This way, I know when it’s ideas for blog post or just random ideas. Well, it might be fast thinking or getting ideas. That’s why I need to pay attention to what I’m thinking.
