How to Deal with Writer's Block
Are you currently going through the writer's block whenever you try to create content on your website and you've tried several approaches to overcome it but to no avail? I'm more than happy to tell you that you'll no longer be affected by the writer's block once you can implement the right strategies.
I've seen the numerous instances of several veteran bloggers who gave up due to the fact that they don't know how to write good, informative and helpful content while engaging the visitors on their sites. This is called Site Engagement which leads to better rankings in search engines.
Some people also give up and quit because they usually experience the writer's block and don't know know how to fight it to the point of winning. Whichever the case may be, experiencing the writer's block while creating content should not terminate your blogging goal.
In today's post, I'll give you the key techniques for submerging the writer's block totally:
- Plan your writing prior to starting
- Search for the right topic to use and stick to it throughout the post
- Begin to write but make sure you're far away from distractions
- Select a low competition keyword for the content to rank fast in Google
- Compose the remaining part of the content naturally
Plan Your Writing Prior to Starting
What are the things to do to overcome the writer's block while planning your write-ups? You start by jotting down relevant points and select those points one after the other into paragraphs. While arranging texts into paragraphs, put readability into consideration lest you write a large block of texts in some paragraphs.
Also, make sure the number of points jotted down supercedes the number needed for the content you want to write. Then, you plan the number of words to be slated for each of the points picked bearing Search Engine Optimization (SEO) in mind.
Search for the Right Topic to Use and Stick to it Throughout the Post
Prior to starting your post, you need to search for the right topic to use and you must ensure that you stick to it throughout the post lest you mislead your readers. Why must you stick to the topic you've chosen across the post? The readers follow up with the topic as they read along and once a glitch occurs, they get astray and may decide to click away due to frustration
While considering which topic(s) to use, you need to realize that the post will attract more readers to your blog if it contains what can satisfy the readers' appetites. The topic must be highly-captivating and attractive to the potential readers.
Begin to Write but Make Sure You're Far Away from Distractions
As you begin to write the content, make sure you don't stay where there are distractions lest you quickly experience the writer's block. Experientially, this is simply what leads to the writer's block and makes writing a daunting task for most struggling veteran bloggers.
Once you've planned your write-up properly, chosen a captivating topic to write about, and have stayed away from distractions, you can start with the writing straight away.
Select a Low Competition Keyword for the Content to Rank Fast in Google
With the use of an integrated keyword research tool like Jaaxy, you're going to choose a low competition keyword for the content and you'll successfully write a comprehensive article that will rank fast in Google without experiencing the writer's block at all.
While using the tool, you're going to consider the crucial metrics for choosing a low competition keyword and this will ensure that you're not working in vain as some people do out there creating for fun every day.
Compose the Remaining Part of the Content Naturally
Now that you've been able to plan your write-up, choose the right topic for the content as well as select a low competition keyword using an integrated keyword research tool, the next step is to write the rest of the content naturally.
Make sure you don't copy content from another source lest you find yourself sued for copyrights infringement.

I settle on the keyword first. Then pencil and paper.. I often hear comments that computers were supposed to do away with pen and paper, but it seems we need them more. :-)
I have a few days off, but still the time slips away, car service, new stove and electrician to connect it, hardware shop, more bits and piece. Still, have to try and make progress with this while I have money coming in.
Good to know, my friend! Thanks for stopping by, Greensail! Some people are actually poor at writing while with the pen, board marker, or pencil but while on the keyboard, they are fast and good. Thanks for your lovely visit!

I hate writing content. I dread it. I have a whiteboard, and notebook but when I put down " write a review" I just freeze. I really didn't think this through, I just don't like to write. This probably isn't the best platform for me.
Oh, my friend, you can be a passionate writer once you're willing to learn and implement the right strategy. As you could have observed, some people hate writing when it comes to using a board marker or a pen on a notebook but while on the computer keyboard, they're always happy to write anytime. Thanks!

I read your bio. I think you could have given us a little more information about yourself. Read comments. Comment on other posts or comments. Free your mind of disliking writing content. Concentrate on what you want to say. Giving comments is a good way to start.
I didn't find you here because I wanted to. I found your comment because I read comments by others. Before I make a comment, I want to know if someone else has covered what I want to say.
That's how I came to your comment. I read your bio, and that gave me my opening sentence to you. I could have left it there, but would that have helped you? Probably not.
So I took it further and made some suggestions. Do comments made by others leave you wondering what they mean? If so, reply to the commenter and ask the member what he/she means.
My comments get longer and longer as I try to make myself understood by those who read my comments.
I gave you a follow.

Another way to find inspiration and rank quickly is to look at what's trending in your niche. You can start using BuzzSumo for free and find out what kinds of article topics are getting the most clicks and building back links. Then try to align your niche topic with similar keywords to what is trending. If someone is willing to read about a particular subject once, they may want to read more about it later.
Yes, I agree with you that by looking at what's trending in one's niche, one will surely get much more inspired and rank in search results. Thanks for recommending BuzzSumo! It's good that BuzzSumo can be leveraged even for free and many people that land here will also take advantage. Thanks for your lovely visit!
