Even businesses who have talented writers generating content for their sites have slumps. When you are in a pinch for ideas, here is a good list to refer to. This includes key point to include, and what not to.
Announce any new product or special offer. List the reasons your clients do business with you: this should provide a very long list of blog entries. Every single selling point about your company will make at least one article. Why small business is better, a price comparison (even why it is not worth it to go cheap), describe a new higher quality source you found for your product/service, or the reasons your products/service are higher quality (imported or made in USA, you buy in bulk and pass the savings on), all your work is done in house and not outsourced, and on and on.
Employee profiles. In depth product reviews, one at a time. Buying guides for your products, or how to choose a provider guides for service industries. Share humorous office stories, or customer stories; get personal. Share customer testimonials with a guest writer, or repeat what you heard. Answer a client question that has come up more than once (re-write your FAQ in your blog, one question at a time).
Any kind of news is good content. This can be news related to your industry. Or news about or within your company. You can write about events you took part in or awards you may have earned, as well as new larger clients that you have added.
Things to avoid, products to avoid, the negative spin on What Not to Do. Recommendations of companies you do business with: your web designer, your cellphone service. Look at your competitors. It is allowed and will spark your mind for ideas. also look at related sites that are not competitors but complementary. Make lists. Make Top Fives. Top Five mistakes you see. Top Five Sellers and why. Top Five trends.
