How To Find New Content Ideas When You’re Stuck In a Rut
There’s nothing worse than staring at a blank page when you need to write something. Or constantly scrolling through Instagram trying to find inspiration.
There has to be a better way to find content ideas.
Well, guess what? There is. Allow me share some ways to help you come up with new content ideas for your blog post, social media platform, podcast episode or Youtube channel.
Google it!
Start with Google, I mean they say that Google is your friend, right? Enter your keyword into the Google search bar and let the drop-down suggestions give you ideas for new content. This will tell you what others are searching for. Using these examples will help you establish yourself as the expert in your niche.
Content Idea Generators
Content idea generators are amazing tools for those moments when you find yourself lost for words or ideas. Content idea generators can come up with keywords, topics and titles to help get your creative juices flowing.
Here are some of my favourites:
Copy.ai
Copy.ai is one great idea generator. Simply enter your niche, then your topic ideas, and press submit. The generator will give you 5 related content ideas.

ChatGPT
If you haven’t used ChatPGT, then you’re getting left behind. ChatGPT can help you come up with all sorts of great ideas. But, a word of warning: be sure to edit those ideas into your own voice. There are too many blog posts out there that have been written entirely by AI and they are becoming so obvious and so damn boring.
Not sure what prompts to use with ChatGPT? Check this out!
Honestly, there are so many amazing tools out there. You no longer have any excuse for not coming up with ideas of what to write or create.
Tell me, which one is your favourite? Do you have others to add to the list?
