When you have been blogging for several times, finally you would reach the limit of what topics you would like to share with your readers.

I personally experienced this problem. I was freshed out of ideas. I can’t think of anything new that I want to share with my audiences.

One of my own blog’s topics is about brand campaign website and other examples of best practise websites as a business. Usually I commented and criticized about those websites.

Then I got this idea, why not let the website’s owner share his/her ideas of the website he/she built? So, I started to contact some of them (fortunately, a few of them I know quite well), offering them interviews as a post in my blog. They respond happily. This probably would also be a good chance for them to promote their business through different audiences.

I made some questions and send them through email. After receiving the answer, I edited few words and started posting it as a blog post.

So then, you get your post with others writing them out for you. My blog readers were also excited, since they found different perceptions in my blog.

You can also do this by interviewing others that related to your blog topics. Usually, readers would love to read the experience of others in the particular fields.

The readers need to have some inspirations to do the same thing. That’s what they love when they’re reading interviews.
