The most important part of  internet marketing are good ideas. You have to be creative when you’re building new website, creating new ads, writting new content for your websites… And there is always this idea problem. I decided to help you a little bit with idea part of your business and this list of 7 ways how to get ideas came out.

1. Social networking websites
Check Digg.com, Twitter and other social networking websites every day. People link to interesting articles and websites and you may get the idea for your own piece of content. If you don’t get any good idea, you can just write review of interesting website and your site is updated.

2. Talk to other people
Go out and talk to people. They may told you about thier problem and you can find solution for it and make a lot of money. You can also write blog post about topic you have been discussing with your friends and include their statemets in it. Your content will be better if you include more points of view.

3. Visit gallery or museum
Ideas are often hidden in art or history. Take your time and go to a museum or gallery and relax yourself. You may find the way how to revitalise ideas from stone age and use it on internet.

4. Classes
You should never stop educating yourself. Start visiting pottery class and you may find great niche in pottery business. Or any other class – they are all full of niches nobody has covered them yet.

5. Read
Go to library and read books. They are great inspiration. You can also read news on internet and discover what world aroud you needs. Go to your news stand and buy magazine about something you have never taught about. Like at classes, you can also find great niches in magazines, too.

6. Blogs
Read as many blogs as you can. People often complain about bad experiences and problems in their life. You can easily find ideas how to improve you business. For example – you run gym and you read blog where blogger complain about lack of information on gym websites. You can go and write guide how to start visitng the gym, add gallery on your website… and you may attract few customers which are scared to look stupid when they come to gym.

7. Comptetion
You should always know what your competitor do. For example – you run online store with baby equipment and your competitor advertise a lot on sports news site. They invest a lot of money in it which means it probably works – fathers always wants best for their children.
