Resources To Get Ideas For Your Reverse Mortgage Blog
AnswerThePublic.com
This could not make blogging any easier and can provide countless ideas for your reverse mortgage blog. All you do is input your search term and the site will produce all kinds of questions people are asking about reverse mortgages. Personally, I find answering questions the easiest way to blog.
Here are some of the questions that answerthepublic.com provided:
- Can a reverse mortgage home be sold?
- Can reverse mortgage interest be tax deducted?
- How does a reverse mortgage work after death?
- Who pays the reverse mortgage back?
But this goes well beyond just questions. The site also provides prepositions. For example:
- Reverse mortgage with condo
- Reverse mortgage with home equity loan
- Reverse mortgage with bad credit
You can also see comparisons. For example:
- Reverse mortgage vs. annuity
- Reverse mortgage vs. home equity loan
- Reverse mortgage and divorce
- Reverse mortgage versus cash out
Plus they give you 422 reverse mortgage search terms. And best of all, you can download all of the data in a CSV file and refer back to it when ever you are looking for more blogging ideas. This one site alone could keep you busy for years with fresh and relevant content people are looking for and want the answers too.
Quora.com
Quora is a question and answer site where questions are asked by the community and answers are also provided by the community. It is another great source of ideas to write posts for your reverse mortgage blog. You will need to sign up for a free account.
A quick search on Quora provided the following questions which you could easily blog about.
- Should you take a reverse mortgage to compensate for a shortfall in income?
- What if a widow has a reverse mortgage and then re-marries a much younger person?
- What is an amortization table like in a reverse mortgage without any cash take outs?
- Is the money advanced to the mortgagee in a reverse mortgage considered taxable? Will that change in 2018?
Yahoo Answers
Yahoo Answers is very similar to Quora. It is a place for community members to ask and answer questions. It will take a little more time to scroll through Yahoo Answers as it is kind of messy and you will see a lot of the same questions answered over and over again. However, it is still another great resource to find ideas for your reverse mortgage blog.
A quick search on Yahoo Answers provided the following:
- Where can I find a lawyer that handles reverse mortgages?
- What is a reverse mortgage and is it a good idea for my parents?
- Does a reverse mortgage loan protect the equity in my home from nursing home expenses?
A couple other sites to try are StackExchange.com, Answers.com.
The nice thing about both Quora and Yahoo Answers is that not only can you find relevant questions to answer on your blog. You can also find good ideas on how to answer those questions, common misinformation people are responding with, unique and creative ways to answer the questions and other ideas that you may not have thought of. In other words, you don’t have to start with a completely blank slate with every blog post on your reverse mortgage site.
Google Autosuggest
Google autosuggest is another really great way to get ideas for your blog. It is as simple as typing in a search term and see what google thinks you are looking for. The way answerthepublic.com gets the data they show you is through scraping Google Autosuggest. However, the data they provide is limited. You can find many more reverse mortgage blog ideas by doing manual searches in google on your own.
For example you might want to use the following to get some additional ideas. Just type in the following and see what pops up.
reverse mortgage after
reverse mortgage before
reverse mortgage during
reverse mortgage on
reverse mortgage without
The autosuggest tool from google could keep you busy for hours. Just get enough terms and ideas to keep your blog updated for many years ahead.
Keywordtool.io
Keywordtool.io is a keyword research tool. It is free to use. However, if you want to see how many times a particular search term is searched for, what the competition for that search term is or what the average cost per click on Google Adwords is, you will need to sign up for a subscription. Frankly, I don’t think you need this information and it is not worth signing up for.
With this tool you once again can find all kinds of great ideas for your blog. The other cool features that I like is that you can get data from Bing, Youtube, Amazon, Ebay and the App store.
So there you have it. Free and easy tools to generate ideas for your reverse mortgage blog. Quite frankly, the only problem you are going to have now is choosing which idea you want to blog about. Blogging is just one tool in internet marketing.
