Guest Bloggers or Interviews:
These will take some advance prep, but are an excellent thing to keep up your sleeve to schedule when you either can’t or won’t have the time, energy or ideas for your regular blog posts.
Get motivated to reach out to people that are well regarded in your niche- not just to give your readers some valuable stuff- but to build YOUR ‘Authority Profile’.
List of your Other Posts with Links:
I hope that you have been writing consistently and so do have a list that you can post on a topic, as a lot of people that visit your site will not have seen some of them! (If not- Note to Self: it is VITAL to your success to write stuff!)
If this list is/can be made relevant in some other way ( news related, seasonal, topical) it will get more traction.
A Monthly Report:
Ok..If you haven’t got one of these going- It’s time to start!
Flip through your diary or calendar and get excited about all the stuff you have done in the last 30 days.Then.. write it up.
You will find that looking at the days events will trigger a few flashes and you will want to write something about them.Gold.
It’s also good discipline to do SOMETHING! Every Month.
Personal Anecdotes or Experiences:
I know..I know. You not sure you want to write about personal stuff!
BUT..part of building rapport and connection with your readers, clients and niche IS allowing them to see more of who you are as a person.(Videos are magical for this!)
Case Studies:
We all have them! When in doubt..head on over to Clients From Hell because I am sure it will trigger memories or, at the very least, laughter- and a possible case study of something or someone that was either Good ..or Bad...Or even Ugly!
People learn from Case studies.Start flipping through client files and data.Jot down notes. How easy was that?
