Blog Post Ideas Brainstorming Helpers¶

This document serves the purpose of aiding and inspiring myself when I am discovering and documenting my Blog Post Ideas List.

Contents¶

Create a list of 50 blog post ideas - Blog Post Ideas List.
Never let the list drop below 30 ideas. When it does, brainstorm new ideas to keep it at or above 50.
Pick the best 3 ideas and those will be my first three blog posts.

This will take ~30 minutes to complete. Use the full 30 minutes.

Track these ideas somewhere else if needed then migrate in during reviews.

Try looking around sites like HackerNews, Reddit, Dev.to, Medium, etc. to find posts that are popular and see if I can write a similar kind of post, but tailored to my particular theme.
Start a conversation with someone at work about a topic or go out to lunch and talk shop.
What topics came up?
What am I especially passionate about?
Direct my energy into a blog post topic from here.
Ask someone else to come up with a few blog post titles for me.
Come up with blog post titles that start with each letter of the alphabet. Sometimes having a constraint like this is helpful as it forces you to get creative and engage.
Look through a book related to my theme or technology and come up with posts about each of the chapters in the book.
Pick categories or sub-themes for posts and group post ideas into a category. Think about what categories of topics I’d like to blog about and try to come up with ~5 categories and 10 post ideas for each category.
Don’t focus on a perfect title, ideas are what’s important in this initial step.
