“I don’t know what to write about!”
“I’m stuck and have writer’s block!”
“I have nothing new to say.”
Ever say any of those things to yourself when faced with the need to write a new blog post? It’s the content creation challenge and I hear some version of those statements above all the time from clients and others in my networks. That’s why I love the brand new infographic (below) from Copyblogger on 22 Ways to Create Compelling Content When You Don’t have a Clue.
I’ve written about the content challenge many times in the past so if after studying the infographic, you need even more motivation and more ideas, check out these articles on Build a Better Blog as well:

If you blog for any period of time you no doubt get stuck from time to time. Some of the best ideas that I get for new posts are usually from readers who have questions or make a comment that sparks a new topic. Get readers engaged in your content is so important.

Thank you so much for this Denise! The timing is perfect. I started a post that was personal yet inspirational and talked myself out of posting it because I thought no one would be interested. LOL I was trying to force myself to choose something else when I really wanted to share this one. I’m going back to work on it right now!

Good for you, Dyane! When you can make a point with a personal story that relates to the topic of your blog, it’s a great way to really, deeply connect with your readers…blog on!

I like #3 and #4 when I’m not sure what to write about. A quick way to do an interview is to hop on Instant message with a friend and ask him or her a couple of questions.
