Running out of content ideas

[Shawn Gossman]

Have you ever run out of forum content ideas?

What would you do if you started running out of ideas?

Do you have anything in place to help you during times like that?

In my case it's not really contents but design ideas. I am a graphic designer, there are times where I find it hard to come up with designs. In this case, what I normally do is to take a break, then research on designs made by others. This way I can easily come up with one of my own.

Well, I don't run out of ideas because I feel that I have so much to share, but if I ever be in a situation like this, I will just ask ChatGPT

No, I don’t run out of content ideas because I’m subscribed to Google blog alerts, and I receive a ton of emails every time my niche is mentioned.


I also follow many subreddits on Reddit, which help me generate new content ideas. Quora is another goldmine for fresh content.


The subreddit r/Ask can also be very beneficial for new content ideas. Many users ask questions there, and you can use those threads as inspiration to come up with your own topics.

I think that's really important for a niche like yours, too. You can share the news as it comes out about virtual pets and become the go-to place for the latest news and discussions.

I can't believe that no one have mentioned using AI to source content ideas now. It's a very common practice in the content creation. I've used AI to get break my block on content creation idea and use whatever I get to develop into a great piece.

AI is definitely a great tool unless you use it completely to make the content.

It's not so great and that point because it's so easy to spot.

It's wrong to use AI in that manner but unfortunately there are so many lazy people out there who things others are dumb not to know they used AI 100% in their work.

All you really have to do is look at how they posted a year before ChatGPT took off versus how they post now. The change in wording and voice makes it so obvious.
