How do you generate content ideas?

Well I might be biased but Quora is a nice place to get content idea. If people are asking about something it might be a blog article topic. A big part of the features I'm building at QApop are to leverage Quora for content ideas generation.

I call my brainstorming partner, go on reddit/9GAG/Twitter. It's always a great idea to do it with someone else so you can get more inspo!

Reddit,twitter,quora,buzzsumo,google news

I would start by identifying what you are uniquely qualified to speak about. What is your niche or expertise? Then apply this to relevant trends in the broader industry, current events, etc. Example: I work at a company building an app to help people enhance their focus throughout the day. Most of the team are neuroscience PhD's and we're funded by the NIH. So, there's our niche. Now we'd look to identify relevant consumer/industry trends and generate content around those themes. Hope that helps!

Brainstorming!! Magic happens every time with brainstorming

I found a website called AnswerThePublic. You type a keyword in there and their search analyses what people are looking for in this field.

If people are asking about it its worth writing about. Plus you get to see a different perspective from what you would have.

Quora, Reddit, Ahrefs if you already have keywords in mind + competitors research :)

Chat GPT to get broad idea of what to write/post about, than you need to filter it and add nice twist of your brand voice

Creating engaging content requires a thoughtful blend of trending topics and high-quality material that resonates with your audience. Utilizing tools like Google Trends or staying informed about local breaking news can offer valuable insights into what's currently popular. However, imo the true measure of quality lies in the expertise and proficiency of the content creator. Are they knowledgeable about the subject matter? Have they honed their skills through experience?
