no fixed office

If you are working to grow your blog, you need to be doing, or sharing something often. There is really no point even thinking about growing your blog if you only update it once every few weeks, with a short post basically saying you do not know what to write about. So today i want to share 10 things you could do that will get things moving.

1. Write a post – Ok so this is not so easy, as just saying i will write a post. However if you even take just 5 minutes, and think about what you have been doing recently, in relation to the topic of your blog. You are bound to find something that will spark an idea, if even for a very short post.
2. Reply to comments – If you have people that have commented, on your blog, then reply to those comments, while not everyone subscribes to updates, the one’s that do are possibly the people that you would like returning, and a reply to their comment will get their attention.
3. Post a Video – There is a chance that if you are really interested in the topic of your blog that you may from time to time see a video on a site like Youtube, that would be of interest to others, so why not share it on your blog.
4. Share some Links – Just like the video’s you probably visit any number of sites related to the topic of your blog, so why not share them as well.
5. Answer a Question – So maybe someone did not actually ask you a question, but just about every topic has questions that new people to the topic want the answer to. So why not answer the question on your blog.
6. Share a tip or trick – Everyone has some sort of tip or trick that they know about something, and while maybe others have shared the same tip or trick you may have it in a little different way.
7. Help promote a forum – Like many people with an interest there may be a forum that frequently visit that relates to your blog. So it could be a benefit for all to share about the forum and to invite your readers to visit the forum.
8. Share your Twitter – If you are using twitter then let the people reading your blog know you use twitter, like wise when you are on twitter always be looking for post ideas.
9. Have a poll – Maybe you are not sure about what direction to go with an idea, why not ask your readers. Especially if it is a topic you will be writing for a post for them to read who better to get an opinion off, better still you can still write the final article but also a post about your findings from the poll.
10. Give yourself a Challenge – A lot of people give themselves a 30 day challenge, to try and improve an area of their life, or to learn a new skill, or any number of other things. You can talk about the lead up to the challenge, and also post progress reports, along the way, and keep your blog active for over a month, just with one idea.

Well there you have it 10 ideas on what you can do to get something happening on your blog. So don’t waste time wishing you knew what to do next, just get in and choose an idea and get something happening.
