Things You'll Need:
- Pen
- Paper
- Brain
-
Step 1
Analyze what you do everyday. Your daily routine may hold some great ideas that you can contribute to the eHow community. For example, a special way that you brush your teeth.
-
Step 2
If you love to cook and you have some great recipes, you may want to consider contributing them. On eHow, recipes don't tend to be the big earners, but they are a great way to expand your database of articles and earn some money in the process.
-
Step 3
Look at your profession. You may have special knowledge gained from your career that could produce some great articles.
-
Step 4
Look at what stage you're at in life. For example, teenager preparing for college, undergraduate preparing for law school, graduate trying to find a job, mother working full time with three kids. All your experiences for life could make for some very interesting articles.
-
Step 5
The internet is one of the best sources for finding ideas to write about. There are tons of websites and articles with news and opinions that you could base your next article from. For example, if you love selling stuff on eBay you could write an article with tips on "How to Make More Money with eBay."
