Brainstorming Content for Adult Ballerina Project
The idea for this post and brainstorming session is pretty much completely stolen from Philly Love Notes, a local blog here in Philadelphia. But since I know that I really needed to go through a similar thought process here on ABP, I figured I’d share my process of going through it as well and take input from others.
How to Create Content starts off by talking about how people no longer go directly to the source for the content, instead people go to social media, RSS feeds, Pinterest, Tumblr, etc. Well I’ve found that mostly be to be true with other forms of content, I also know that a huge bulk of my readership comes from Googling how to do something ballet-related. Go figure.
However, I totally understand that this idea is true: You have to be everywhere and anywhere your readers might find you. ABP is–we have Facebook, a Facebook group, Tumblr, a Pinterest board, G+, Twitter, Instagram, and we are SEO friendly.
The overall goal of the podcast, to me, was to help you come up with easier ways to not take up too much time brainstorming how to do everything.
I’d recommend it to anyone who is looking for ways to get more out of blogging.
Grace shares that the key is to develop easy and effortless high quality content that can be shared over multiple platforms and comes naturally to you. She goes into a little bit about how to do some research, and one of the things I’ll definitely be doing a look through my analytics to see what has been really popular over time.
Grace then goes on to share 10 main categories of content, many of which I feel there’s a spot for ABP to fit in (and I’d love to hear what you’d like to see):
Then the podcast went into some trusted go-tos, a lot of which I already do:
Overall, this was a really great exercise to help walk me through what I can be doing more of and what (and who) I can feature on the blog.
Is there any particular post, article, or idea you’d like to see in any of these category? Let me know in the comments!
