You might be thinking that some of the above blog topics don't have anything to do with remodeling. This may be true on the outside, but on the inside, you can mention your remodeling services! For example, you're talking about local activities in Chicago. In the end, you can say something like "Do you enjoy being in Chicago? Have you ever thought about moving to the Windy City or building a vacation home near your favorite activity spots? We can help!" Then you go into what you can do for them.
Finally, you will increase your website traffic by sharing these types of blog posts. Why? Because people are searching for these things every single day. Start writing about your local community and help your neighbors explore more in your area!

Conclusion
Are you overwhelmed by all these blog topics? I would be, and I wrote this post! There are so many. Where could you possibly start?
Before we part ways, here's 3 tips for getting started with your remodeling blogging strategy:
1. Start with the most important questions.
Take the questions you get asked most from your prospects and customers and create blog content around that.
What Blog Posts Should Remodelers Write First? [podcast episode]
Want to know what the first blog posts we recommend remodelers write first? Listen to our podcast where we explain the top four topics remodelers should write about and why.
2. Realize you can't hide anything.
Cost, competitor data, reviews, ratings, options - anything you may have tried to hide from a prospect in the past, they can access within a few seconds via Google. Don't hide in the shadows. Share everything, and be the first to show them who you really are.
3. Be consistent.
This is probably the most important tip I can give you. If you write one blog post, that won't be enough no matter how good it is. Don't let "best" get in the way of "good". Get on a schedule, and write consistently. Our clients that have been blogging weekly for multiple years get 2x, 4x, and even 10x or more traffic than any of their competitors. How does that sound?!?!
