I admit, recently I have a lot of works to do – my 8 to 5 jobs, my new blogs niche – they limit my time to create quality articles here. But that shouldn’t be a reason for rockin’ guy like me. Our simple life can give us thousands of idea to write. We just need to think creatively. Here is my solution for those who don’t have an idea to post.
1. Use social media wisely
Social media sites is my second favorite spot besides my blog. I can engage with my friends and my followers. Once again, twitter and facebook are my usual spots. These two social sites are greats for spreading information quickly. I used to ask some questions there and 70% people will answer them. It can be a great discussion.
2. Read other blogs
I love to read people’s writing. It’s simple because I can get new idea to write and improve my English skills since English is my second language. Plus, I can show myself to the blogsphere by commenting their posts. Recently, I’m quite active reading self-improvement blogs like Seith Godin and Zenhabits. Though Seith Godin wrote on marketing but his writing is different from other marketing blogs. His ideas always weird but fantastic.
3. I do some tutorials on artwork
Since I love artwork, I’ll spend my free time doing artwork by referring to online tutorials. But I’ll do only if I done on blogging stuff. You too can spend your blogging-off time by doing what you love. Playing computer games maybe.
4. Just write what have you thought
Simple, I have shown here. I don’t have an idea to post but I can publish a simple article tips.
. Enjoy!

I like the way most of the post title is crafted and also your writing is quite lean and minimalist as well.
I’ll drop by whenever I’m free.
I guess I found another blog within my niche in Malaysia
Thanks Ahmad for commenting. Really appreciate your interest to this blog.
Writing what you think is the best thing for a personal blog. Its the best way to connect with your readers.
In my off, i do my hobby which is reading and writing — so i think it seems that i am never really off from blog.
Same goes to me. But till March I’ll don’t have much time to do all this. Have to concentrate as practical engineer
You mean as an doing an engineering internship-kah?
*You mean doing an engineering internship-kah?
yes..
If we have more time for blogging, definitely we won’t be out of idea since we read many other blogs. If we’re out of time, then that’s different story.
When I’m out of idea, I love to spend time on news site or reading a SEO blog. You share a nice piece of tip Fazreen.
Thanks pal.. little tips can give big impact too
When you read many other blogs in the same niche, slowly you’ll absorb the knowledge and you’ll know what to write next.
Same to you Fazreen, recently I’m really busy of my day job and studies, got no time to update my blog with quality content. Luckily I have few guest bloggers who send in their guest post, so that the blog doesn’t look quiet.
All the best Fazreen!
Cheers,
Lee
Absolutely right. It’s all come to time consuming. Hopefully I can have much time to write few blogs per day. Just miss leaving valuable comments at other blogs
