I have read various blogs and articles about haivng a plan on what to write about each week - each month.
Last week I made of list of topic I was going to cover for the rest of the year. I accidentally left it at work and it has since been tossed in the garbage. Sadly, while I remember some of the months topics (the big holiday ones), this month seemed a blur.
Bear with me while I try to talk a little about a random topic given by the internet!
This will be a Beginner's Guide to Writing A Blog!
Firstly:
Find a website you love that supports blogs and/or writing.
A few ideas: Blogger.com (obviously, 'cause you're here)
Weebly.com
Wix.com
Squarespace.com
....to name a few.
Once you have something that works for you - set a weekly date to update.
Step Two:
I suggest finding a day that will be easy for you to remember, or a day that is less busy than the others.
I chose Tuesday as my weekly update day for a few reasons:
1. Tuesdays' are typically when people go to read blogs.
2. It's not Monday
3. Nothing really happens on a Tuesday
Step Three:
Once you have your site, your date, set up what you are going to blog about.
I know I'm the last person to talk about this, but I will be getting better - but get a calendar and plan out what you plan to write about before your Post date. This will make it easier to gather your thought, and it will reduce your ranting to posts that have some sort of meaning.
Step Four:
Post each week on your self-assigned date.
Repost the link to your blog to your friends/family/co-workers, and let the idea spread.
Any of you have a blog? Post a link below!
