100 Blog post ideasWhether you’re looking to amplify your online authority, or build a better online business, there is no sharper tool in your box than a simple blog (preferably built on WordPress)

Search engines love blogs and reward them accordingly. Because of easy-to-use dashboards that make content management push-button simple, fresh posts can get published easily, and with relative frequency.
Having a static, hand-coded website these days is like having a sign on your door that says, “Search Engines Not Welcome!”
Blogs are attention magnets for both search engines and people, as long as they’re used correctly. Used well, they are a hub for both social media and search engine activity.
Yet it’s never enough to churn out forgettable copy.
Millions of abandoned blogs litter the Net. Yours will be one, too, at least if you try to blog on autopilot.
This list solves that problem for you forever. Even if you published Monday through Friday, posting every idea in this book twice, you would have enough ideas to last you a year.
