Yep! All those heavy seasonal blog traffic that could double or triple your ad income, and affiliate earnings.

women preparing for holidays. Holiday blog post ideas.

I’m an advocate of evergreen content to the extent that I published a popular ebook on ‘Evergreen Content Strategies’. But, I also believe that seasonal content like holiday blog post topics, Christmas blog post ideas, winter blog topics are the most searched topics during the last quarter.

And, you don’t want to skip that!

Why You Must Write Holiday Blog Post Topics

Let me quickly share a few reasons why you should start planning and writing holiday content ideas at least 4-6 months prior to holidays.

  1. Sometimes, SEO takes at least 6 months to rank your content. The best time is to prepare and publish your holiday posts at least 6 months in advance so that your content gets seen.
  2. Holiday posts can be updated and refreshed every year. You can always add new updates to last year’s content, change a few headings and make your content fresh.
  3. There are numerous earning potentials during holidays. As people in the US and throughout the World spend more money on holidays, it’s a huge earning opportunity for bloggers.
  4. Plan your social media marketing plan for holidays in advance. Holidays are usually busy for everyone. So, in order to spend time with family, make sure to schedule your social media content ideas in advance.
  5. It doesn’t matter what niche you are in, you can still write holiday blog posts. 

By the end of the post, you will get an ultimate list of holiday blog post ideas but before that, I have shortlisted some popular content topics for holidays. 

Feel free to get creative and come up with your own topics using these popular strategies.

Popular Holiday Blog Post Ideas

Let’s start planning blog posts for holidays.

#1. Do a Holiday Series

Just like 10 days of Christmas, you can do a series on any topic you like. The purpose is to do a series based on one theme. For example, you could do a series on ‘10 Days Series: how to celebrate holidays’. Share one idea every day. 

Holiday series can be a major source of traffic for your site. Don’t just think of website traffic. But, think about your business or shop too? Let’s say you have a printables or home decor shop. Think how you can do a 12-day series on decorating your home in winters. Each day, you can share some ideas and also link out to one product in your shop.

Some Holiday Content Series Ideas;

  • 12 days of Christmas Sale
  • 10 cute christmas card ideas for kids
  • 7 days of craft ideas for holidays
  • Holiday Series: 20 holiday tradition ideas 
  • 14 Holiday experience ideas with your kids
  • DIY projects: 12 Days of Dollar Store Christmas Projects
  • 10 Day Series on How to Organize Christmas Party at home 
  • Christmas Tree Decor Series : 7 Days

#2. Gift Guides

The most popular gift guides are spectacular attractions for holidays. Even though gift guides are common through the year, they are highlights for holidays. If you want to make some money during holidays, make sure to pick this holiday blog post idea first. Create a gift guide based on theme. 

A gift guide displays a list of gift ideas and products without directly selling. The idea is to help your readers choose gifts around a specific theme. Let’s say ‘A gift guide for Christmas’, or ‘A holiday gift guide for couples’.

Don’t just focus on adding links to every product. In fact, do a search and see what makes a perfect gift for a mom on christmas. Then, add in more gift ideas for your audience. It’s not necessary that everyone would buy anything you list down but it helps in making up the decision. And, if someone likes the idea and wishes to buy from your shop or affiliate programs, you make money.

Big online stores create gift guides in all different categories and it’s a great idea to choose one for your own blog. Depending on your blog’s niche and audience interests, create a holiday gift guide.

Take a look at this best gift ideas for bloggers, and best gift ideas for Instagram influencers.
