A couple of months ago I wrote a post on how to kill writer’s block. Of course, it’s much easier said than done, so I figured that another follow-up post is in place here.
Last time the main 3 ways of fighting writer’s block was to:
- have a bank of ideas,
- relaxation and exercise,
- fixed schedule.
If you want to find out what the basic principles behind each are I invite you to visit the original post that’s been published here on SmartBloggerz – 3 Easily Applicable Ideas to Not Only Fight, but KILL Writer’s Block.
What I want to do today is focus a bit on the first item on the list – the bank of ideas.

Whether you are just starting out in your Internet business, or have been at it for a while now, there are some important steps you need to take when developing quality content. Some of this might seem very basic to those who have worked for a while now, but a refresher never hurts.
I am not going to go into much detail on why quality content is important, as I’ve done that in a few other articles. This time I am going to focus on the actual development of material that will attract the attention of Google, an important ally to have when working with the Internet.

But don’t be one of those people who makes the mistake of spending all your time on traffic generation methods, without learning the tricks and techniques you’ll need to convert those visitors into customers once they arrive.

Except for the lucky few, most bloggers have to fit their passion for writing in and around their 9-5 jobs.
Unless you’re a professional freelance blogger earning good money from your blogging (which let’s be frank most of us aren’t), and the only time you can dedicate to your blog is in your free-time, then you’ll need to hone your writing skills and blog to the world without becoming a social outcast and gluing yourself to your laptop all weekend.
However, blogging on the weekends or at other times brings with it a whole host of distractions and issues that are designed to make it more difficult than ever to focus on your writing.

The number one reason most blogs fail is simply because they aren’t interesting. The blogger has nothing interesting to say, and well, it’s pretty obvious that no one wants to waste their time reading something they couldn’t care less about.
You don’t need to incorporate online survey tools into your repertoire to figure out that people don’t want to read a blog post that they can read on every other large blog.
They want a fresh angle, a new perspective, or just a different bit of information – but above all, they want it to be interesting.
