Create A Google Alert

Google Alert is a feature by Google that provides you with search results of topics in your industry via Gmail. You can sign up for the feature, choose the industry you want to receive alerts for, and specify the frequency in which you want the alerts to come in. For instance, if you create content in the technology niche, you would sign up for categories such as “technology” or “tech news” and receive alerts based on these topics you have chosen. This would ensure you always have access to topics in your industry and never run out of ideas.

Sign Up To The Best And Your Favourite Publications

This doesn’t have to be just the ones in your niche. You can get ideas from other publications and connect it to the message you want to pass to your audience. Keep tab of the publications you’re signed up to and look out for daily new topics.

You can engage in these platforms by raising questions or joining discussions relevant to your industry. Another good idea is to create a social media poll or use a tool like the ‘Poll Daddy’ widget.

Read Books

Reading is a practice you can’t escape if you want to be full of ideas and insights. When reading a thought-provoking book, you can come up with ideas from the points the author makes by taking some notes. The notes you take can serve as ideas for your content.  Featured Image Source: Freepik
