Find Time To Blog
Lots of businesses struggle to find time to blog.
But blogging for your business is important.
It shows off your expertise and helps to drive traffic to your website.
Although it’s important and has many benefits to it, unless you have someone in place to write for you, finding the time to actually sit down and write is more difficult than most realise.
Here are some tips to help you be as efficient as you can with your time…
-
Outline your blog’s structure in advance
Nothing is worse than being faced with a blank screen and a white canvas can be daunting and frustrating.
If you know what you plan to write about before you begin and know the points you’re going to make, you’ll slash the time it takes to write the article.
Preparation is key.
-
Carry a notepad everywhere
People think of ideas at random times; just before we go to sleep, in the shower, driving to the shops.
Having a notepad with you means you can quickly stop and write it down so you don’t forget it and you can begin planning the post right away.
-
Make writing a habit
For writing to become second nature you need to be doing it frequently and habitually.
It will become natural eventually.
Dedicate an hour or two a week to sitting down and expanding on the ideas you’ve got – you’ll soon find it a lot easier if it becomes a solid part of your routine.
-
Understand the importance of blogging
Blogging for your business is a great way to show off your expertise and drive traffic to your website.
By understanding its significance and what your blog can do for your business, then you’ll be more inclined to make time to write.
-
Use a schedule
Using a schedule will help you be as organised as possible and means there’s no question marks over what content you’re releasing.
This is also useful for your social media channels.
You don’t have to worry about what to write about and you can schedule posts ahead of time giving you space to breathe.
Trying to find time to blog is important but should be something you prioritise each week if possible.
Using all, or some of these tips will free up some of your time.
Writing blog posts might even become a task you look forward to.
