Agree! Additionally, I think you have to make yourself familiarize with the topic first. Immerse yourself with the topic until you have at least enough knowledge about it, this way you will also be able to put your own insights in your content.

These are great tips! I would also like to add that you first must get the basics of your topic. It is helpful to learn first about the basics before diving into the other things as jargon and certain concepts may confuse you. You can also ask acquaintances who are in the field for reliable resources since they are more familiar with what you are researching about. ☺️
