  1. Identify Controversial Items: Ones within your niche that are known to spark disagreement among your audience.

  2. Highlight The Disagreement: Emphasize the controversy by explaining why these items are debated. Include different perspectives to make the content engaging.

Don't worry if you’re struggling.
