Personal top five ideas for gaming blog content (Lists)

It could be hard to come up with ideas for what kind of content you want to put into your new gaming blog. It is important that you post content that fits your agenda/purpose but you also do not want to be too repetitive in the specific content you are pushing out. For instance, not many readers will want to explore reviews of games all the time and are instead demanding for varied content revolving around video games and technology. 

I am here to bring you ideas to really break out of that habit or comfort zone. Whilst working to develop and further vary the information that you put out in order to appeal to not only a wider audience but to also keep people more engrossed overtime. 


1. Reviews 

    This one is pretty self-explanatory, you personally play a game for at least 8-10 hours or enough to develop a solid all encompassing opinion. This idea for a gaming blog is magnificent and can potentially earn you a lot of money. People are always looking for new games to play and you could be the one that influences their purchase decision. Gaming blogs tend to go this route as you are fairly expected to draw in a lot of traffic and thus potential earnings may be higher compared to making game walk-through's which only some people may find useful depending on the difficulty that a majority of people are having. 

2.  New arrivals/upcoming games 

    I believe this could be a massive way to gain a large amount of followers for you blog and subscribers. Search the web and try to find out as much as you can about upcoming game releases in order to optimally be the primary destination that people go to for news. You could capitalize on these blog posts even more if you can be one of the first people to push out new information.


3. Game/Console comparisons 

    Instead of just reviewing a console or game you could write a comparison between a similar console or game. For reference, especially when new video game consoles release people everybody wants to know which one is the better console in certain areas or features. On the video game side, you could compare a racing game such as Need For Speed to Forza Horizon in order for your audience to have more confidence in picking the game that delivers more of what they are after in relation to the other game. 

4. Game Walk-through's 

    As I mentioned above, writing "Walk-through's" or basically guides for beginners to new games or in order to assist players that are stuck and can't progress through a part of a game could be in high demand depending on what it is. If you are able to accurately identify what people are looking for help or guides on and which games are booming at the moment this can bring in tremendous traffic. Although, I rank this lower then Reviews in general because from my experience I tend to turn to YouTube for visual help. 

5. Top 10 list of your favorite games


    This one can be a pretty big conversation starter. Put together a list where you rank the games you have played from best to worst. This idea will help expose gamer's to new games they may have never heard about and even may lead to a debate that can hopefully be controllable and civil. Overall, a top 10 list can bring attract a lot of visitors looking for games that they expect they will enjoy. That being said, it ranks at the bottom of my list because it is not very flexible or dependable for a constant flow of traffic. As you can only make a handful of top ten games before you run out.
