Creating a Blogging Content Schedule

I have a confession to make….. As anybody who has subscribed to this blog (and thank you for doing so), you may have noticed that I have been rather bad at updating it on a regular basis recently.

I have definitely fallen into the ‘cobbler’s shoes’ problem.  I’m very good at telling others how to keep their blog updated – not so good at doing it myself!

So why is that?  I spend so much time learning about new Social Media functions and facilities and I have been spending a fair bit of time creating learning content recently – it has just seemed too much effort to write a blog as well!  But it isn’t really – part of the problem is setting aside the time – probably only 15 or 20 minutes each week.  The other problem is knowing what to write about – but every business knows more than their customers (well I would hope so anyway), so just share some of that knowledge!

So, I’m turning over a new leaf.  Every Wednesday night, I sit in a car park waiting for my son at badminton training.  I purchased a dongle last week so now I have internet access in the car park.  So I have no ‘time’ excuse.

I have just sat and written down a list of topics I can blog about each week – actually this was very easy.

I now need to make the commitment to do it!  Well I know if I tell somebody else that I am going to do something, I will do it.  So I’m telling my readers that between now and Christmas, this is the schedule I’m going to try to keep to.  I may change some of the topics if events overtake me, but at least now I know what I’m going to write about if there is nothing else more important (and when I’m going to do it).

Wish me luck!  I hope I have inspired you to follow suit – why not add a list of topics you are going to write about in the comments below and we can do it together!
