Happy Friday,

Are you struggling to find the right content ideas?

Good content is key to growing your brand online. If you want to continue to dominate your niche, you need an endless source of content ideas. Finding the right source makes the content creation process and repurposing much easier. With this curated list you can find trending and relevant content ideas from several sources quickly. You will always have content to share across the various platforms.

Here are the top 8 places to find content ideas for social media growth:

1. Exploding Topics: Tools like Exploding Topics reveal the hottest rising trends before they explode. Think of it as a crystal ball for content ideas! Example: You notice "sustainable home office furniture" is exploding. Create a blog post on "Top Eco-Friendly Desks for the Modern Home Office."

2. Comments: Dive into the comments section of popular posts or accounts with a highly engaged audience. What questions are followers asking? What topics are sparking the most discussion? These are gold nuggets for content creation. This can be applied to the following platforms: YouTube, Instagram, and X. Example: Alex Hormozi, marketing guru, recently shared that his team uses his YouTube Channel's comments to learn the best topics to share with creators and entrepreneurs.

3. Podcasts: Industry podcasts are goldmines of content inspiration. Tune in to discover trending topics, pain points your audience faces, and expert insights you can translate into valuable content. For example, a marketing podcast might discuss a new social media algorithm update – perfect fodder for a quick explainer post for your audience. (Podcasts are available on Spotify, Apple, and YouTube).

4. Pinterest: One of the most underrated places for content ideas. Pinterest is a treasure trove of trending topics and visual inspiration. See what pins are getting saved the most by Pinterest users. The platform also shares insights on trending topics about specific niches.

5. Facebook Groups: Facebook groups are not dead. Dive into the conversations happening in relevant Facebook groups. What are your ideal customers asking and discussing? What are they celebrating? These are real-time content needs waiting to be addressed!

6. Newsletters: Subscribe to newsletters from industry leaders and influencers. See what topics they're covering and what's resonating with their audience. Most newsletters share deep dives or related industry news. Use that section for trending content ideas.

7. Reddit: Reddit communities can be a treasure trove of questions, concerns, and discussions within your niche. Example: A subreddit dedicated to photography is full of questions about "Creative product photography techniques." You design an e-book on "Simple Hacks for Stunning Product Photos (Even with a Smartphone)."

8. DMs: Don't underestimate the power of direct messages! When people reach out, pay close attention to their questions and concerns. These are golden nuggets of content inspiration – a direct line to what your audience wants to know.

​

Once you have found your content ideas, you need to store and organize them so you can be easily accessed. Here are a few tools that you can use:

Apple Notes: This handy app is pre-installed on most Apple devices, making it a convenient one-stop shop for jotting down ideas on the go. Use folders and tags to categorize your thoughts, keeping your content zoo neatly organized.

Content Bank in Notion (for the Powerhouse Organizer): Notion is a game-changer for information management. Create a dedicated "Content Bank" workspace to store and categorize your ideas. Think blog post outlines, social media captions, or video concepts.

​Pocket: Stumbled upon a fascinating article you want to revisit later for content inspiration? Pocket is your lifesaver. Save interesting reads from anywhere on the web, categorize them with tags, and access them seamlessly across all your devices.
