Most people who create blogs, whether it’s for personal or business use, do so in order to share their thoughts and ideas with the world. However, those with this flair for the creative aren’t typically known for being particularly organized or methodical. If you do have both the skill of organization and the talent for blogging, congratulations! But if you don’t, here are three ways you can use organization to reach your goals for blogging and make the process much easier to manage.
Keep Track of Your Previous Blogs
If you produce a lot of content or have been blogging for a long time, you probably have published hundreds or even thousands of blogs. With that amount of content being amassed, you can’t expect yourself to just remember all the topics you’ve discussed. So to help with this, Roger C. Parker, a contributor to the Content Marketing Institute, recommends finding a way to keep track of your completed blog posts all in one place. By doing this, it will be much easier to tell what content you’ve already covered, what content performed well on your blog, and what topics you haven’t yet exhausted. To make this document even more helpful, try using categories to group your blog titles and notes together logically.
Befriend the Calendar
Simply having a running list of what you want to publish isn’t necessarily going to make reaching your organization goals any easier. To do this, you’ve got to actually commit to dates in which you want your content completed and published. Cropped Stories writes on TheBlogPlanner.com that plotting the content you want published on an actual calendar will help you to see what content you need to be working on and how long you have to perfect it before it needs to be published. Just thinking about dates can be arbitrary, so by physically putting your content plan down on a calendar, you have more accountability. This could give you the motivation you need to not only become more organized, but also finally start making consistent blogging a habit.
Get Your Ideas Together
Many writers experience moments of inspiration at the most random times, not just when they’re sitting at their computer ready to get to work. If this sounds like you, you’ve likely got notes and ideas scribbled all over the place. One way to make your writing come easier is to get all your ideas together. Julie Neidlinger of CoSchedule.com shares that once you have your ideas organized, 90 percent of the work of blogging is already done. So if you’re looking to write more effective, efficient blogs, consider trying this strategy.
While you can have a successful blog without being a stickler for organization, creating a system of organization for your blogging efforts will make the process move along much more smoothly for you. Use the tips mentioned above to help you get started.
