Are you struggling to come up with new ideas for

articles? Whether you are a new or veteran writer,

this problem can effectively halt your ability to use

this method of promotion. So, to help you overcome

this, I have compiled a list of things you can do to

find new article ideas.



1. Message Boards

Read the posts at message boards to see what

people are interested in. You can then write your

article on topics that people already want to know

more about.

2. Discussion Lists

This is similar to using the message boards. Just

read to see what others are posting about and write

articles on those subjects.

3. Surveys

You can use a survey to find out what people want to

hear more about. There are several places to find

people to take your survey. Send the survey to your

net contacts, post to discussion groups, post on

message boards, put it in your newsletter, or put it up

on your website. Offer something of value for free,

like an ebook or ecourse, to those who take your

survey.



4. Newsletters

By subscribing to and reading newsletters, you can

find out what is currently popular. Here are a few

directories where you can find newsletters.

http://www.cumuli.com/ezines/

http://www.expresslists.com/

http://www.jogena.com/ezine/ezinedata.htm

http://www.list-city.com/



5. Keywords

Get article ideas by studying the most searched for

keywords, which you can find at these sites.



http://www.wordtracker.com/

http://www.metaspy.com/

http://50.lycos.com

http://www.top-keywords.com/

http://www.kanoodle.com/Spy/

http://buzz.yahoo.com



6. Chat Rooms

Find article ideas in chat rooms by looking to see

what questions are being asked and by asking

what information the other chatters are interested

in.



7. Best Seller Lists

Research what the topics of the best selling books

are. Most likely, if there are people buying books on

those topics, there are those that will be interested in

reading articles on them.



http://www.amazon.com/

http://www.barnesandnoble.com/

http://half.ebay.com/products/books/index.cfm

http://www.booksense.com/bestsellers/index.jsp

http://www.nytimes.com/pages/books/bestseller/

http://www.usatoday.com/life/books/top-50.htm



8. Visitor/Subscriber Questions

If you have a website or ezine, you probably have a

goldmine of article ideas. Pay attention to the

questions your visitors and subscribers ask you.

There might be an article hidden in those questions

somewhere.



9. News Websites

Check some news sites to find out what the latest

happenings are. Then you can research the hot

topics and write articles on them.

http://www.internet.com/

http://news.com.com/2001-12-0.html

http://www.internetnewsbureau.com/

http://www.internetworld.com/

http://www.newslinx.com



10. Article Writing Services

If you have tried all of the above methods and you

haven’t been able to come up with anything, there is

always the option of having somebody else write

your article for you. These can get pretty expensive,

though, so research thoroughly before selecting a

person or service.
