Quora is a unique question-and-answer platform that allows people to connect with others who have expertise in specific areas. But! We can use this platform to find valuable content ideas for ourselves. To do this go to quora.com and tap on the search bar and type your specialization. Here, let me change my specialization to Brawl Stars and do a search.

Through the search, I found around 4 content ideas that can be used to write a post.

1. How to unlock brawl stars characters fast

We will type it in the search bar and click on the search button.

One of the easiest methods to find out keywords or content ideas related to your niche is to use the google search bar. When you search for anything, google automatically suggests some related keywords and these can be used as content ideas for your blog or website.

Let me clear this up with an example. First, we need to go to google.com and type our main keyword e.g., body building, and google will start suggesting related keywords to it. 

Method 5: Forums (findaforum.com)

If you want to know your audience more, it's better to join a forum online in your field of specialization. Joining a forum will make you open to your audience's thoughts, and what they really want and thus you can create content according to their need. 

There are tons of forums online, and to find one in your specialization you have to do some research on the internet or you can just do what I used to do. Open findaforum.net and look for forums or discussion boards in your content category. 

There is lots of stuff in a forum, collect it and create your content ideas.
