Planning Your Posts For The Week


Creating new content is one of the most important steps to building a useful blog.

You should try to post to your blog often. I would recommend posting to your blog at least once a day for the first week, after that if you can keep going with the same momentum, then you definitely should.

I think that posting to your blog everyday from day one, is the best way to get traffic and keep it coming. At the beginning of every week, I like to write down 7 good post topics for the up-coming week. This saves me a lot of time and I feel much more organized.


For instance, if you were starting a blog about bicycles, your first week of posts might look something like this.

  Example:
  • Day 1: Introduce you and your blog; tell readers what it's about.
     
  • Day 2: Blog about your favorite kind of bikes.
     
  • Day 3: You could blog about the best kind of tires for racing.
     
  • Day 4: Blog about the best tires for mountain bikes.
     
  • Day 5: Tell your readers one of your favorite places to go biking.
     
  • Day 6: Write a post about a good bike manufacture.
     
  • Day 7: Your post could be about when the first bike was invented.

Another thing you want to remember when planning your weekly posts is, at least 2 of your blog posts for the week should be much longer than the rest, these are called pillar aricles. You don't want all of your blog posts to be only 1 paragraph long. However if you do post to your blog everyday, a few of your posts can be just simple tips.

Posting something new to your blog everyday, even if it's just a quick tip, tells the search engines that you update your blog often. Search engines love up-to-date information.
