When I'm being clever I look at Google search console for results I'm ranking well for even though a previous article didn't tackle that specific aspect of the topic.
Otherwise I just write about a problem I've just solved.
While community/readership input is always valuable, I think bloggers should just write whatever they want to write. A blog is, by nature, personal and that's why we (or at least I) like them.
Now we can take the same idea and reverse it: if you have a blog, you can do what you want with it. You want your readers to choose what you'll publish next? Then do it, but I don't think it's beneficial to you, your readers or your blog in terms of creativity and uniqueness.
Absolutely not. I write what I want to write. If anyone else is interested that's a bonus.
Besides, if everyone focus-grouped their posts we'd be drowning in "what should I write about next?" polls.
Don't do it. You will end up with those meta posts like "how to write a post that asks to your audience what your next post should be" :D
I think everyone should write whatever they think is valuable.
Not really, most likely they will find something on google search :))
And with 30 draft articles my queue is full.
