What to post when you have no content ideas

Every creator runs out of ideas. The good news is, you don’t need to overthink it. Simple posts can still get great results if you know what works.

Repurpose old content

Take a past video, cut it shorter, or update it with a fresh take. Most people haven’t seen your older clips, and new viewers won’t know the difference. This saves time and still gives you fresh content for your feed.

Answer common questions

Look at your comments, emails, or DMs. Turn those questions into quick videos. If one person asked, many others are wondering the same. A 15-second answer can bring real value and new engagement.

Show behind-the-scenes

Your process, your desk, or how you make something. People love to see the human side, not just the finished product. A short, casual clip builds trust without much effort.

Jump on trends

Trending sounds or filters make it easy to join conversations. Add your own spin to keep it relevant to your brand and niche. Even one trend-based post a week keeps you in the mix.

Share quick tips

One small tip can deliver big value. Short, useful content often gets saved and shared more than long explanations. The best tips are simple, practical, and easy to apply right away.
