100 Article Topics in Minutes--How?

65

By Athlyn Green

In a recent article A Neat Trick to Generate 20 Article Ideas, I discussed a quick and painless method to come up with article ideas.

In today's tutorial, we will take a look at how to generate 100 article topics in mere minutes. Does this sound impossible? Read on, roll up your sleeves, and complete this exercise.

Creating topics to write articles around isn't as difficult as is commonly thought. While 100 article topics in mere minute sounds like it's nearly impossible to execute, it can be accomplished, quickly and easily. Still sceptical?

In today's tutorial, let's use the letter "A." Think up 20 words starting with the letter "A." Don't stop to consider or edit, just write them down.

I'll do likewise. Let' see what we come up with.

List of 20 A-Words

  1. ant
  2. Aspergers
  3. art
  4. attitude
  5. athlete
  6. amoral
  7. anxiety
  8. ark
  9. anterior
  10. ailing
  11. axe
  12. aspersion
  13. aria
  14. alimentary canal
  15. amplify
  16. ashwan
  17. application
  18. arrears
  19. arrest
  20. abridged

Wow! I'm amazed how easy that was and it took just seconds.

When I look at this list, I see so many ideas for potential article topics for each word. Let's look at the first word: "ant." Try to generate 5 topic ideas around the word "ant." I'll do the same.

  • Colored Ants of the World
  • Poison Ants
  • How to Make an Ant Farm
  • World's Largest Ants
  • "Ants in His Pants"--ADHD in Young Children

That wasn't difficult at all, was it? Now do the same thing for the other 19 words on your list.

20 A-Words + 5 Article Ideas for Each = 100 Article Topics

Think of the potential here. You make your list of 20 words, then you think of 5 ideas for each A-word. 20 X 5 = 100. Viola! You've now crunched ideas for 100 potential article topics in mere minutes!

You can use this technique with any letter of your choosing, either working your way through the alphabet, choosing letters that are used most often, or even simply using vowels. Whatever letter you decide on, use the 20 X 5 formula to generate ideas for 100 article topics in mere minutes.

I bookmarked it. Apparently what I was missing was the vid at the end that took forever to load for some reason. Thanks for this great hub.

This is so clever - and it works. How can we - in this whole big wide world - not know what to write about! Thanks for such a creative hub!

The article is complete, offering instructions as to how to proceed.

Each person should come up with their own list of 20 initial words, using a letter of the alphabet as a prompt; then they generate their own 5 ideas, associated with each word.

By completing this tutorial, readers can easily generate their own 100 article topics.

Where is the rest of the article? This is actually a really great idea but I'd love to see the rest of it.
