Do the post stand out in the same way? Are there any gaps in the results - blogs you expected to see, that aren’t there?
Repeat the search for other headline. Are there any differences?
Are there any blog posts that are popular within in your niche that seem to be missing from the others?

For example, best information about any useful tutorials, or any answer relevant to questions that are difficult to describe and tricky to search for.

"Flow is life and life has to pass each and every moment."
Be a consistent blogger or write whenever you find a fresh idea for writing anything you like.
Don't wait too much while you’re brainstorming ideas.

But remember, prediction about anything requires full knowledge about the predicted object/thing or anything you are writing about. It also requires a detailed information about. So be careful while predicting.

Blogging requires correct timing to post, correct trend to write about and so on.
That is why some blogs become successful just by being published their posts at the right time.

Although you can’t always predict this kind of luck while blogging, it’s worth considering such coincidences when you are coming up with an idea of writing on a particular topic.
If you can think about an event that might occur, you might be able to prepare a post for it, just in case the opportunity presents itself.

One way to generate an idea of writing is to focus on a specific demographic (i.e. gender with age 18-40).
What kinds of things do they like? What kind of content would they be interested in?
Research your subject in Google search engine or Google Trends to get a feeling for the possible size of the audience.

By being specific, your blog post is less likely to get lost in the crowd of blogs about the same subject.

Bloggers usually earn money by monetizing their blogs and if you’re too thinking how to monetize your blog using any ads platform, there is one approach that can help you.
That approach will also help you to generate some ideas is to think about what topics, age groups, or products the advertisers would like to target, and then create a post around that.

This is not good to do that. Always remember that if you are using anything not created by you, give proper copyrights information with the link to the owner of that object.
Always be mindful of what you are writing about and using any material found online.
20. Try lots of ideas
Don’t limit yourself to just one kind of content. Try different approaches and see what works the best for your blog. If your first idea doesn’t work, maybe your tenth idea will work.
Don't be optimistic. Always get motivation while blogging by reading other motivated blogging materials.
