Say Goodbye to Writer’s Block with These 95 Blog Topic Ideas
Need a spark of inspiration for your next blog post? Here are 95 blog topic ideas that will keep you busy.
1. Your goals and progress report
Revisit the goals you set yourself in the past month, quarter, or year, and break down your progress.
Did you achieve them all?
If not, what did you learn, and what changes will you make moving forward?
Also, share your wins in the post to help inspire people to keep reaching for success.
2. The year ahead
Counter to the previous blog idea is to share your goals for the year ahead.
Instead of keeping them to yourself and your to-do list, announce them for the world to see. It’s a great way to hold yourself accountable.
It will stretch your comfort zone and motivate you to push forward when you get in your own way.
It will also motivate your audience to do the same.
3. What’s your mission statement?
Write a mission statement post either for yourself or your business. It’s a great way to bond with your audience, especially when they agree with you.
A mission statement will normally comprise what your company does, how it does it, and why – Or in reverse order if you follow the advice of Simon Sinek:
“People don’t buy what you do; they buy why you do it. And what you do simply proves what you believe”
Simon Sinek
4. What are you currently learning?
Learning something new? Share what you're currently learning and why, whether it’s a book, a class, or a Udemy course.
Double points if it has anything to do with your industry because it shows your audience you’re dedicated and that you mean business.
5. Which book has had the biggest impact on your life?
Do you have an all-time favorite book that hugely impacted your life?
Why not write about the biggest lessons you took from it? One of my favorites is The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D. Wattles.
Book lovers love book suggestions, and you might even get some SEO traffic if you optimize the post well.
6. What is one piece of advice that you’ll always remember?
We learn stuff every day, even if we aren’t aware of it.
But every so often, we hear something that stays with us and shakes us to our core (in a good way, of course).
You could title your post with the lesson you learned and share a story about how it changed you for the better.
7. A day in the life of yours truly
If you’re the ambitious type with a busy schedule, write a post that takes your readers behind the scenes of your daily routine.
We all love to peek into how successful people take charge of their day. Share yours, and it might even spark some new motivation.
8. Quotes in your niche
Just about every topic under the sun has famous quotes you can talk about.
Health, wealth, relationships, sports, performance, technology, you name it.
So no matter what your industry is, do a Google search for a quote about “your blog niche” and curate a post of your favorites.
9. Interview someone in your niche
Want to pick the brains of an influencer in your niche? Why not reach out to them and ask if you can interview them?
Who knows, this could be the start of something new, like the start of your own podcast or YouTube interview series.
10. Write a piece on influential people in your niche
Influential people are influential for a reason. And when you talk about them, you align yourself with what they stand for, which makes you look good.
Besides piggybacking off the success of industry leaders, it can also bring in a decent amount of traffic.
Either through SEO or when you share it on social media. Give it a try.
11. What is your vision for the future
Like the mission statement post, this one outlines your company's long-term goals.
Usually 1 – 2 sentences, it distills your goals and ambitions for the future that help you focus on what’s important today.
12. Talk about your values and what matters to you the most
No matter who you are, values are essential.
If you have a burning desire to achieve something significant, improve yourself or raise a family, knowing what’s most important to you will strengthen your integrity and drive you forward.
Sharing that in a blog post is next-level commitment.
13. Controversial topics in your industry
There’s controversy everywhere, and no industry is spared.
Why not publish a polarizing piece of content detailing a controversial topic in your field of expertise?
Some people will love it and others may hate it, but as the saying goes, all publicity is good publicity.

To find the most recent topics to include, do a Google search for your industry and click on the News tab.
15. Review your favorite products

You could even add affiliate links to earn some commission when people make a purchase.

If you’re in the health and wellness or fitness niche, your diet will probably be something to brag about.
Sharing an article describing your weekly meal plan will be well received by your healthy followers.
17. How to cook your favorite meal
If you have a favorite meal and know how to cook with your eyes closed, you surely need to tell everyone about it.
It’s the meal you make for your entire family or when you have friends over.
Posting the recipe and your unique method could be the beginning of a new career; and or cookbook deal.
18. Tech you couldn’t live without
We all have our favorite gadgets and gizmos, and your blog readers ought to be educated about them, right?
This could be a collection of random tech you use daily or from a specific category, your niche will love.
Write up a small blurb about why it’s a must and link to where they can get their own.
19. List your favorite podcasts
Lists of the best podcasts are an excellent addition to your blog, especially niche-specific ones.
If you're in the finance space, make a list of the best personal finance podcasts people should know about.
There are podcasts in every category, so whatever your industry, replace the above with your own.
20. List your favorite YouTube channels
Like the blog post idea for the best podcasts, this one is for your recommended YouTube channels.
We all like learning in different ways, so adding lists of various media channels will keep your audience happy.

Why not share them in a blog post to inspire your tribe?
We all want to be successful, and success stories are a great way to keep your readers motivated toward their goals and dreams.

Is there a book in your field that’s required reading?
For instance, in the online business space, it’s The Four Hour Work Week, and in the self-help niche it’s How to Win Friends & Influence People.
The books that have sold millions of copies and exist on almost every “best book” list.
Find the one in your niche, read it, and summarize it in a blog post.
If you optimize the post well for SEO, you could see a decent amount of search traffic pour in.
23. What are your favorite self-help books
Share a list of the books that have shaped you, inspired you, and changed your life.
Even a small summary of each can be valuable for your readers because everyone’s perspective is different.
The way you interpret a book can be the motivation someone else needs to read it themselves.
24. What are the top 3 books everyone in your industry should read
Are there specific books that people in your industry need to know about?
Be the advocate for spreading the wisdom and teachings of these books and inspire others to do the same.
25. Name your top 3 movies that influenced you the most and why
Movies aren’t just entertaining, they’re educational and influential.
Sharing the movies that have impacted your life will help your audience understand you better.
And it might help you expand your audience of like-minded people.
26. Travel experiences
If you’ve spent any time traveling, you will certainly have some stories to tell.
People love reading about luxury locations around the world, and if you’ve experienced it firsthand, it will inspire them to go themselves.
Who knows? It could be the start of your own travel blog.
27. Times you failed and lessons you learned
Success is great. But we almost always need to fail along the way.
What have been the biggest lessons you’ve learned from failing?
Writing about the tough times is also a great rapport builder and will grow trust with your audience.
28. Your biggest success
What has been your biggest success to date?
It doesn’t have to be a post titled “How I Made $4.2 Million in 12 Months” either.
Little wins still count and can be just as inspiring. For example, there was a time when I couldn’t even get out of bed in the morning.
Now I get to grow my business as a content creator and work remotely as a freelance writer.
To me, it’s a huge success!
29. List your favorite recipes
Sharing recipes is always a great topic, even if you’re not in the food, health, or wellness niche.

And maybe it could be the start of a new food blog?

Then, you could tell people to check it out to have their burning questions answered.
