Expressing my desire to write was necessitated by some factors and it got very strong at a point because there are a lot of interesting experiences in writing. Some years back, this whole thing of writing began and the learning experience for me was just amazing but not without difficulties. Getting a topic to write about and also express detail knowledge to deal very well with the topic is also another thing on its own.
At times, I wonder how full time writers are able to keep up with their schedules and writing prolific content on a range of areas. The way the composition and the entire story is crafted is something someone who is starting off in this field will have to ask questions about. Most often, the determination, goal and the efforts they put into it all combine to bring unto our access those great contents that inform us.
Is it hard getting a topic to write about?
As a Communication Designer, I create solution centered design that solve design problems of clients as received from the client's brief. Writing of any kind especially in the online space has a goal of sending out a message to a particular target group of audience. Doubling as a writer, I have noticed that finding a topic to write about can be a bit hard at times. It takes a day or more for me to get some stuffs to handle in terms of writing but one thing important here is expertise or in-depth knowledge about the theme.
To publish a content is to intentionally put a writing or any other communication message or signal out there into the public domain that is helpful to the readers as they engage with the content.
The needs of users
Creating relevant articles or writings stands on the foundation of understanding or knowing what readers normally search for.
Google Search Console is one tool that gives me a list of queries entered by readers of my writings and reviewing it encourages me to research and write on some topics in the list as it is something the readers are likely to find value in.
Even as these insights can be gotten from here, there are paid options or sites that provide more query data or users as well as keywords and every other data a publisher might find useful to create a performing content.
So, the publisher does not know what to write about at times and it is the reality because sometimes, inspirations might not be there to motivate a decision.
Factors causing insufficient writing ideas
- Too little data on audience insight.
- Not enough inspiration or ideas.
- Traffic instability that discourages some writing topics.
