As a blogger, coming up with fresh and engaging blog post ideas on a consistent basis can feel like a never-ending challenge. In this post, I’ll share how I was able to brainstorm 30 new blog post ideas in just 30 minutes by leveraging prompts in ChatGPT – an AI assistant created by Anthropic.

The Struggle is Real
For any blogger, coming up with new topics to write about week after week can become tedious. I often found myself staring at a blank screen, unable to think of anything worthwhile to write. At the same time, I knew my readers would grow bored if I kept rehashing the same old topics. I needed a way to consistently generate new blog post ideas without a lot of effort.
Leveraging an AI Assistant
That’s when I discovered ChatGPT – an AI tool that’s incredibly helpful for generating prompts and ideas. All I had to do was describe my goal (come up with 30 blog post ideas in 30 minutes) and ChatGPT would start spitting out potential topics. Within minutes, I had a long list of ideas to choose from.
Some of the blog post ideas ChatGPT proposed included:
- 5 Ways to Increase Your Blog’s Traffic in 2023
- The Ultimate Guide to Blog Monetization
- 10 Blog Post Formats You Should Try
- How to Optimize Your Blog for Voice Search
- The Best Tools for Social Media Management in 2023
The AI was able to come up with ideas that were relevant to my niche as a blogger and fit well within the scope of topics my readers would be interested in. All without me doing any of the brainstorming!
Refining and Filtering the Ideas
While ChatGPT generated a wide range of ideas quickly, not all of them were viable blog post topics. The next step was to refine and filter the long list of ideas ChatGPT provided down to the 30 strongest concepts.
I evaluated each idea based on factors like relevance to my niche, reader interest, search engine optimization potential, and my own knowledge or experience with the topic. Any duplicates or overly broad/generic topics were removed. I also consolidated similar ideas where possible.
For example, ChatGPT had suggested individual blog post ideas about the benefits of different social media platforms. Rather than writing separate posts for each network, I combined them into a single post titled “The Pros and Cons of Major Social Media Sites for Bloggers.” This helped narrow the list.
In the end, I was left with 30 focused blog post ideas that had potential to generate traffic and engagement for my site. And it only took 15 minutes to evaluate and refine the initial brainstorming output from ChatGPT.
Final Words
In the end, leveraging ChatGPT allowed me to brainstorm 30 fresh blog post ideas focused on my niche in under 30 minutes – saving me hours of time that I can now spend developing these ideas into full blog posts. The AI tool is incredibly helpful for generating blog post ideas when you’re feeling stuck for new topics to write about.
FAQs
How accurate are the blog post ideas generated by ChatGPT?
While ChatGPT is very helpful for quickly generating a high volume of ideas, not every topic it suggests will be a perfect fit. As the blogger, you’ll still need to evaluate each idea for relevance and viability. The AI may also propose some overly generic or redundant topics at times. But with a bit of filtering, most of the concepts can be refined into strong blog post ideas.
Is it plagiarism to use blog post ideas from ChatGPT?
No, using blog post ideas generated by ChatGPT is not considered plagiarism as long as you are not directly copying its exact wording or passages without modification. The AI only provides a starting point or prompt – it is up to the human blogger to develop full blog posts on each topic with their own unique writing and research. As long as the final blog posts are written in your own words and voice, it does not violate copyright or plagiarism policies.
