When I speak to people about blogging and content marketing, one of the first excuses they come up with is ‘I don’t have time’, rapidly followed by ‘I don’t know what to write about’.

Sometimes we’re a little too close to our business, and can’t see the wood for the trees. Hopefully this list of 21 things you can blog about right now will help clear your mind, and give you some ideas.

A topical news piece

Read the online news, locally, nationally, internationally and in your industry – find something you can relate to your business and write about it.

Your latest client

Tell your readers who your latest client is and what you’ll be doing for them – it helps them to see the kind of person they could refer to you for future business.
