When I first started this blog, I had no problem coming up with something to write or to write about. Over time, and as the months went by, those ideas became more elusive, and gradually the topics seemed to slip through my fingers.
There’s no shame is searching for some good ideas to write about. In fact, I think searching for new ideas or for trending topics is a great way to serve your readers.
This is just a bunch of random posts that came straight from the recesses of my brain. A brainstorm! Just thinking and thinking of posts for this website, and while I was at it, I just thought I would share!
Without further rambling, let’s get into it.

Recommended Resources For People Who Want To Get Started Blogging
If you are thinking of starting a blog, here are the resources I recommend for beginners (which expands and contracts as I try new tools and services:
- Domain Name: I recommend Name Cheap for a domain name, as they frequently offer massive discounts and promos, as well as offer free WHOIS Guard. Use this link to see what deals are being offered right now.
- Hosting: I recommend Siteground for hosting. I waffle between Bluehost and Siteground for beginners a lot, but I’ve had such great customer service and support with Siteground that they have won my vote and recommendation. SG costs just a few dollars a month to get started, with flexible plans as your site grows. Use this link to check the latest rates and special offers.
I used to recommend paid keyword research tools, but I’ve gotten away from using them and I no longer believe that expensive keyword research tools are required to start a successful blog from scratch.
