Never Run Out Of Blog Post Content With These Blog Writing Topics
What should I write about?
This is the number one question I had in my mind when I was introduced to blogging. I am sure even you have this question.
The first step is to select a niche/category in which you have to write the blog. It should be close to your heart. In order to find this, you have to try different things. Research on the topics you like on the internet and see if it keeps your attention. If it does then it might be the topic for your next blog.
Ok, so now starting to come up with topics to write a blog becomes easy. In this article, I am going to make it easier for you to come up with blog post ideas for beginners.
I have talked about major 8 blog topics for writers but sky’s the limit. You have the capability to come up with as many as you want.
1. Reaction/Opinion/Perspective
The internet is filled with content and hence creating anything unique is very very rare.
Your content will be different from others with your own perspective on the same topic.
This will make you look like an expert and hence will also build your personal brand. This is one reason why roasting channels are so famous on YouTube. People want to hear opinions about various topics from different people.
2. The Case Study or Stat Roundup Post
People do want to know how someone achieved a particular task? What did they exactly do? If they themselves have not revealed it yet in a proper format then you can do it in the form of a case study. Just make sure that it is related to your niche/industry.
You can also do a Stat roundup post. This means that you can
- Give all the technical specifications
- Amount of traffic to a particular website
- Details in numbers of a particular event, etc
You just have to mention the information source in your blog post.
3. The Interview
Podcasting is the future. Start interviewing people and improve your and your audience’s perspective and knowledge about your industry.
Interviewing should be about value exchange. This means, if you are calling someone for an interview then they too must be benefitted for their time and expertise that they are giving you. You can provide them with exposure to your audience.
Start off with your contacts and see if they are ready to help you to either be interviewed or recommend someone who wants to be.
4. Quotes Roundup
Who doesn’t love quotes? Especially if they are from someone famous in your industry, then it is an icing on the cake.
All you have to do is make a list of top 10 quotes about a topic and put them down in a blog post. You can find quotes by simply going to the twitter account of your ideal person and scan through it. You will definitely find some golden quotes there.
5. The Crowdsourced Post
This is the easiest and one of the most profitable blog post ideas for beginners. The following are the benefits of making this type of post:
- Your effort is very less because it will be crowdsourced
- You may get high-quality backlinks
- Your domain authority increases.
- Your Personal brand develops and
- Your network also increases.
A crowdsourced post is where you choose a topic and get opinions/perspectives of other experts on the same topic.
You can ask them the question on email, social media, or however you can approach them. Get their permission and post it and give them a backlink. Some of the experts will share your blog post on their social media and hence you will get a shoutout or even a high authority backlink.

6. A list post
Another easy to implement blog writing idea. This also works a lot on the internet. People want to know the top 10 of something. They want the best and hence search accordingly.
If you can create a blog post making a list of places to visit, tools to download, things to do, etc and write it better than your competitors, then a list post can benefit you tremendously.

7. The Youtube Cut-up
This is simple. You have to search for a YouTube video which is explaining something in your niche. Now, you can just explain the video step by step. Take screenshots of various steps and explain them to your audience.
This blog writing topic will work because some people prefer to read the text and they want a more detailed explanation. Because in a short video explaining all the points in detail is not possible.
8. Round up of list posts
In the vast ocean of the internet, a lot of amazing blog posts get lost. They deserve to be read by someone who really is looking for an answer.
You can help those people by making a round-up of all the best performing blog posts on a topic. Use BuzzSumo to find those blog posts, make a list of them, and post it.
