Are you a blogger who is currently out of inspiration? Well, you can go ahead and google anything between "unique blog posts ideas" and "where/how to find inspiration". You might either find what you were looking for or you will most likely have results such as "35 blog posts ideas to boost your blog", "the ultimate list of blogging ideas" and actually have nothing. There is a big chance these ideas are already taken or perhaps not enough creative for your blog? If it is not for you, don't worry about it.
Believe me, I did google a lot of these before I figured out that the best way I could get inspired is by looking at things in a different way. Here are some tips so that you can do the same and get some inspiration for your blog. :)

1- Take a look at your likes
Whether you are on instagram, facebook, pinterest, twitter or any other social media platform, you should take a look at your likes and there is a high chance you will find inspiration there.
2- Look back on your older blog posts
Did you do a part 1 of something? Maybe it is time for a part 2? You can also re-write an older post or have similar posts to the previous ones that your viewers loved :D
3- Read other blog posts
You can always get inspired by other bloggers. If you have absolutely loved a blog post from another blogger, you can do a similar one by adding your creativity/personal touch in it and there you have it. :)
4- Participate in tags or challenges
If you want to keep up with your blog but need ideas, you can do those 30 blog posts challenges or any other weekly challenges. I know some people do a favorites of the month or a weekend favorites thing. Others do a "things I am grateful for today" post which is also interesting.
5- Talk about your day/getaway/trip
If you have a family/friends getaway, trip or simply just going out, you can talk about it in blog post. I personally love to read those and would absolutely comment on them.
These are a few ways I find inspiration for my blog. We usually look elsewhere for inspiration but sometimes you can be your own inspiration.
I appreciate each one of you for reading this. I hope these small tips were helpful for you. Please leave your blog link below so that I can check it out. Also, I would love to know where you get your inspiration from.
Until next time, happy blogging! :)

DeleteGreat ideas! Sometimes it can be tough to come up with blog ideas, but checking out other blogs is always a good way to find new things to write about. Just remember to cite the blogger if you're using their "idea".

That is true and yeep! We usually forget that there is a whole copyright rule when using someone else's picture or ideas even while blogging and it is important to always cite the original author. Thank you Lauren! :D
DeleteBlogging requires a lot of patience. When I feel low, I always remind myself that my passion to write is much more bigger than any other problem. thanks for these tips.

DeleteThese are some really great ideas for coming up with post ideas. I was just listening to a podcast where the host reads a book a week and jots down ideas based on what he is reading. He keeps a running excel document that he can draw from of topics that REALLY excite him. Thanks for reminding us how important topics specific to you are important.
