Topics to blog about

I mentioned in an earlier blog that finding a topic to talk about is half the challenge to having your own blog. 

Naturally it is always easier to write about something you love, so you could choose to have your blog not necessarily about your product or your company but what you personally love to do in life.  There are enough bloggers out there that do exactly that, for instances they may be a CEO  or CFO of a company but choose to blog about travelling for their living.  It’s still within the context of their company but it’s about travel.

You may also find that you need to blog about what your customer base is looking guidance on.  So for instance, if you are a realtor there are so many areas you could blog about.  You could talk about the wearther in your location, you could discuss ’style’, the market, the cities you have sold properties in and what those cities offer.  Ask your clients what they want to read about and then cater to their needs.

Also another tip and something I have started for myself with one of the blogs I write for is start a file.  As I get mail or I come across another article that I find of interest or might inspire me to write something along the same lines I hold on to that article.  It’s my tickle file to aid my creative flow.

Another area you might fight a great source of inspiration are social network sites like twitter or linkedin.com where you can post a question and see what responses you get.

Blogging is easy once you know how and why you are doing it.
