How to Use the Blog Ideas Generator
Using the Blog Ideas Generator is quick and easy. Here's all you need to do:
1. Put in terms you'd like to blog about, and click "Give Me Blog Ideas."
You use one, two, or three terms. If you need help coming up with them, ask yourself these questions:
- How do people describe your products or services?
- What problems do your products or services solve?
- What industry keywords do you want to rank for on Google?
I'm filling out this tool as if I were blogging for HubSpot, so I chose the terms "social media," "blogging," and "calls-to-action."
2. We'll give you a week's worth of ideas based on those keywords.
Keep in mind that the titles might not be 100% perfect for the terms you chose or grammatically correct. Feel free to change them up to make them work better for you. Here's what I got for the terms above:
You can use this tool as many times as you want -- so hit "Try Again" if you want to use different terms.
3. Your editorial calendar is set for the next week!
Now, it's time to schedule your blog ideas in a publishing order that your team agrees on. As a general rule, internet users tend to search and click through to easier, more lighthearted articles early in the week, and pursue the "meatier" topics later on, around Thursday. Plan wisely!
4. Fill your editorial calendar for the next year.
Satisfied with the week's worth of ideas you received? With the Blog Ideas Generator, you can actually plan your editorial calendar for the entire year with 12 months of content ideas by filling out a simple form, accessible next to your first five ideas.
5. You're ready to get blogging!
(And if you need help with that, we've got some blog post templates you might enjoy.)
So next time you're strapped for content ideas or just need to get out of a writer's rut, check out the Blog Ideas Generator. In a matter of seconds, you'll have five brand-new blog post ideas. And who knows? Maybe one of those ideas will spark one even our algorithm didn't think of! ;)
