Posting Content to Your Blog
How to Schedule Your Content
Create a content calendar: A content calendar is a useful tool for planning and organizing your blog content. It can help you ensure that your posts are spaced out evenly, cover a range of topics, and align with important dates and events.
Posting Frequency
Mix Up Your Content
- Determine your posting frequency: Decide how often you want to publish new blog posts. Whether it’s once a week or three times a week, be consistent with your posting schedule so that your readers know when to expect new content.
- Plan ahead: Write and schedule posts in advance so that you don’t have to scramble to come up with new content at the last minute. Having a backlog of posts can also help you maintain a consistent posting schedule when unexpected events arise.
- Consider your audience: Think about when your readers are most likely to be online and when they are most engaged with your content. Schedule your posts for those times to maximize engagement.
- Mix up your content: Don’t publish posts on the same topic back-to-back. Mix up your content and cover a range of topics to keep your readers engaged.
Remember, scheduling blog content is a process of trial and error. You may need to adjust your posting frequency or content topics to find what works best for you and your audience.
Seek out inspiration.
Don’t wait for it to come on it’s own (let’s face it, as a busy mom, it might never come). Pinterest, other mom blogs, Instagram, and books are all wonderful sources for inspiration.
The ultimate way to find content that is valuable and needed is to solve a problem. One of my most popular posts is “How to Survive Your One-Year-Old’s First Blood Test”. I wrote that post out of frustration that I couldn’t find the information I needed heading up to my daughter’s blood test. All I could find were medical journals or WebMD pages that were literal and vague. I wanted to read about another mom’s experience. So, I made a note of it and the night of her blood test, I sat down and wrote that post.
It’s a great example of having a problem and providing a solution. What problem have you solved or what have you overcome that deserves a permanent spot on your blog? Shifting my perspective to problem solving has greatly improved my writing.

I’ve written and produced a TON of content to help parents raise active kids. While children need 2-3 hours outside each day, studies show that kids are barely getting 15 minutes of recess outside. They go from home, to car/bus, to school, and back home. I’ve linked to some of my work. Thanks for encouraging us to share > https://fit2b.us/fit2b-kids
