Get post material from web forums
The biggest problem i have with my blog is that i run out of material. It’s hard to post relevant material every friggin day. I’ve said that going to the book store is a great way to get inspired. Picking up a new magazine can help create new ideas for a niche blog. Another way to get your juices flowin is by visiting web forums. Web forums like Digitalpoint, sitepoint, and wickedfire are filled with interesting threads. If you run a blog about blogging, you’re sure to find a lot of topic ideas. If you run a “make money online” blog, then you better stay current by hitting these web forums.
As a noob, sometimes it gets overwhelming inside those forums. The lingo they use is often very foreign. Don’t get intimidated. Just try to soak up all you can. There are a lot of successful webmasters on that forum. You’ll find valuable contacts by getting involved. If you read a lot of those threads, you’ll learn a lot of SEO tricks and marketing ideas. Instead of buying a useless ebook for $45, read various threads in webmaster forums for free. I can almost guarantee that the info discussed in are way more useful.

That’s true! Other forums you can go and read if you are in the “make money online” niche are The Warrior Forum and Conquer Your Niche Forum.
There also is a forum called MoneyMakersGroup which is targeted mainly to HYIP and other money games, but it has sections devoted to other kind of sites where you can grab a lot of ideas to use in your blog.

I have to try and find the time today to go visit all the frugal forums to gather some ideas for my new frugal site.
It is a drag to keep posting on a regular basis inside a niche…. that is why is many ways I love The Random Forest….

I use forums and other blogs to inspire new post ideas. But usually I just get examples out of real life.
