Blog Post Ideas

categories: Blogging

Though I love writing and blogging I often get stuck on what exactly to write about. I’m thinking that I am not alone in this and I hope that this post will be helpful to someone out there that may be stuck on what to write about. So here are some blog post ideas that will inspire you to write a post:

Write about your best friend.
Write about your favorite meals.
Write about your favorite exercises.
Write about your favorite TV shows.
Write about your favorite vacation and travel tips.
Write about your favorite recipe.
Write about what you do for self-care.
Write lists such as Top 10 recipes
Write about your home – what you love about it, show us your garden
Write about people that inspire you
Write about your favorite tech tips and products
Write about something nobody would think about you
Write about your favorite things
Write about the best things to check out in your city/town/state

10 Holiday Blog Post Ideas

categories: Blogging

What you’re thankful for

This should be fairly easy as it can include the smallest of things that you are thankful for. The holiday season is the perfect time to reflect on what you are thankful for.

Travel Guides and Tips

Many people travel during the holidays. Road trip, airline travel, packing tips. Write about your city and what to do there

Favorite traditions or memories

What are your favorite family traditions or memories about the holiday? Share them with your readers so they can not only get to know more about you but also be inspired to perhaps start their own traditions and create memories with their family.

Favorite holiday movies and music

The fun thing about this is that some people may have never heard of a movie or song/artist that you share. You can introduce your readers to something new!

Favorite holiday recipes

This topic you can make into a series and split it up into different dishes so that you have more than one post to share with your readers.

Roundup of favorite memories of the year

Every year I try to make a year end post with updates of things I did every month throughout the year. You can also do a roundup of your favorite memories – it doesn’t have to be listed by month but this can also be split up into different categories and more than one post.

Holiday Gift Guides

You can do this by person, gender, price point and more – also split this up into different posts if you have enough ideas.

Your Wishlist

It is always fun to share what is on your wishlist with others. Pick maybe 5 things and write about why theses items are your must haves.

What you plan to do for the new year

Call it goals. Call it resolutions. Call it whatever you please but share this with your readers so they can not only learn about you but perhaps get inspired to create a list themselves.

12 things you learned the last 12 months

This is another post that will help your readers learn a bit more about you. You can get as personal as you feel comfortable sharing.

Blog Life: Sharing My Life Online

categories: Blogging, Her

How do you determine what is worth reporting from your life since not every moment of your day ends up on your blog?
I have been using the internet since about 1999 and sharing my life with the world since around the same time. I have always had a website, blog, journal or social media account in which I shared bits about my life. When I share my life online, I try to be as transparent as possible because I consider myself an open book. I like to know that the person writing a blog is a real person with real experiences and not just an online persona so that is how I choose to be as well.

When I read someones story on their blog about something they accomplished I get inspired or when they write about a tragedy I feel compassion. As bloggers, when we share our life with others we can often learn so much about ourselves. We can share common struggles or issues as well as praise each other’s accomplishments. Sometimes we connect on things and it turns into projects or even business partnerships.

When it comes to sharing my life on my blog I don’t have any specific formula that helps me to figure out whether the topic is worth a post or mention. If it is a major event I will usually blog about it. For example, I am currently working on getting a job and/or creating a business and I wrote about it. I shared my experience along with some resources. To me sharing is caring. And I care. I like knowing that if someone reads that post – or any of my more personal posts – that they get to know about me and benefit from any discoveries or resources I came across as well.

If something smaller happened in my life like I baked something from scratch, I may post about it on Twitter, Instagram or Facebook instead. I like to think I am pretty open when it comes to sharing what is happening in my life. When I blog I usually write and share about bigger moments so that people reading it can find out more about me or be inspired or laugh or cry. I enjoy the discussions that occur once I hit that publish button.

For me, blogging has been very therapeutic. I can write about things that are happening and share it with others. A lot of times when bad things happen in my life and I write about it people come and give me so much love and support. Though I am not blogging in order to find sympathy, I do feel that sharing what I am going through can help others with what they are going through and vice versa.

Bottom line… I am fairly open about my life when it comes to blogging and I have not published anything that I regret sharing with the interwebs.
