Re: Skribit: The Cure for Writer’s Block - TargetStars Blog
I had Skribit on one of my blogs for quite a while, and not one of my readers made a suggestion. I've had an "Ask a Question" page on another blog for nearly a year, but have only received a couple of questions. I get the impression that blog readers don't feel it's their responsibility to tell us what to blog about. If we can't think of something interesting to say, they'll just go read someone else's blog.
It's really not so hard to come up with topics if you put yourself in the shoes of your target audience. Make a list of things they need or would want to know. Go to forums where they hang out and write down the questions they've asked that you could answer. Write about other blogs, books you recommend, special events that you're involved with, and so on. Find a quote that really speaks to you and use that as the foundation for your post. The possibilities are endless...
