How Do I Blog!

Hey guys! Are you liking my week of Blog Anniversary Posts? I know I am! It has been so fun to do this post and I have been planning them for months. So today’s post maybe be a little boring but I always wonder how other people go about their blogging and what there technique is. So today I am going to tell you mine. Let’s get started.

I have a few things that I use to help me blog. One is my baby name copybook. I am on my second one and it is filling up fast! The next thing I have is a planner. I just started using this a couple months ago and so far it is really helping. The next thing is a little index holder with sticky notes in it. And the last thing is a small copy book type thing that I write to-do list for the day in it. All of these things have been so helpful.

In the baby name copybook I write out the names with the meanings, origins and any other information I need for it in the book. It makes typing up the blog so easy because all of the information is in one place. I rarely ever do a post without having it all written out.

In the planner I write what I am going to post for everyday in the week on the Sunday night before the week starts. I write the name of the post and the words planned, scheduled, and out underneath it. I check off the three words once to part is down.

The index card holder and sticky notes just have names write on them that I have heard and found interesting and I store them in that because it is easy to keep track of them.

The small copybook with the to-do lists in it helps me get things done during the days I am off. I also write the time I wrote the list up and the time I finish each item on the list.

The steps I use when writing a post start are the following.

• Step 1: I research for the names of that post and write them in the copybook.
• Step 2: I type the post up in Word and check for any mistakes in spelling or information.
• Step 3: I copy the writing from Word and put it into a blog post and then I add the picture and source for the picture.
• Step 4: I either post it right away or I schedule it to post.

Most of my blog posts are all scheduled a couple of days in advance and they all come out at 11:00 am. It is so much easier to blog that way because I don’t have to worry about my blog every day. If I’m not posting that day I am planning more post in my book. I try to spend between an hour and two hours doing blog work as I call it. Blogging is really a job but it’s a job I love!

So that is really how I blog. It’s nothing fancy or anything. I hope you liked this and don’t forget to comment. And if you blog, how you go about blogging? Let me know below or in a post. Bye for now :).
