Early on the in Alex Jeffreys Coaching Course, Alex told us of the importance of having good fresh content on your Blogs. If you give value to your visitors they will come back for more. Simple as that. I have made sure I regularly put out new content on my Blog and made sure every week I put up several new posts. But how/where do I get the ideas from to write my content?

Well, I apply another technique that Alex Jeffreys taught is – I keep a journal, plus I record ideas and make notes all the time. I have a spreadsheet continually open as I am ‘working’ at my computer and I just drop notes and reminders into it whenever something pops into my head so I don’t forget !! Since the Alex Jeffreys Coaching course started I have had no problem in keeping my material fresh, but where else can you go if you have writers block?

Well her are a few ideas that I can instantly think of (I’m sure there are more!):-  

Private Label Rights (PLR); you can use this material for free, rewrite it if you want to make it your own and put your own personality onto the content.

Article Directories; Excellent resource, just using one site, such as Ezine Articles and you will be overwhelmed with the amount of material written.

Outsourcing; Try Rentacoder here. You could no doubt get a series of 50 articles on Internet Marketing for well less than $100. Post a project and see what happens. (It’s free to post a request so do it NOW!)

Journaling; Keep a record of what you are doing. This is your story, and stories sell.

Other blogs; Get inspiration from what other people write about.

Free ebooks; again great for inspiration for you creating your own material.

Twitter; I love Twitter. Everyday there is at least one useful link that is posted. Follow me if you don’t already and I’ll keep you posted too.

YouTube; Do a search on any topic and you are sure to turn up great tutorial videos on any topic and better still you can embed the videos in your posts too.

Over the course of the last week I have been approached by two Blog owners (via Twitter) to write material for their own sites as a Guest. I’m certainly going to do this, as who knows where it could lead. It gives me potentially greater exposure plus the Blog Owner gets free content. Win-win all around. So, that’s another avenue you could explore if you wanted to.

Alex Jeffreys mentioned most of these in his great Coaching Course. For those Alex Jeffreys students reading, have a look over your course notes and/or review the Webinars as there are loads of nuggets of information for you to try and apply. Give it a go.

To finish this post, here is a video from my friend and fellow Alex Jeffreys student Gary Simpson. For those that haven’t seen it on his site already here it is-

In fact, Gary is going to do a 52-part series of these motivational videos and I have created a special ‘Motivation’ page in the Tabs at the top of my Blog to group all these together. You see sharing content like this is win-win for both of us. Gary gets greater exposure plus I get a great video series too :-)
