Webmaster Forums And Marketplace

Every bloggers hits this wall at some point.

In order to be successful in blogs, whatever market you are in, your blog needs fresh content. It's the only way you'll gain or keep subscribers, and increases the chances of returning visitors which could lead to more money for you.

Posting every day is not only boring most of the time but tiresome. De-motivated bloggers can just leave a blog, and a few weeks down the line they end up putting it up for sale.

To prevent this there is something you can do. Write plenty good posts at once, then -

• Either save them as a draft and publish when you're stuck for ideas;
• Set wordpress to automatically publish them in the future.

I'm sure you're aware how to save a post and then later edit it and publish it, but many of you will be un-aware of how to post an article automatically in the future.

Here's how -

1. Write your post. Categorise it, tag it etc.
2. In the "Post Timestamp" box (expand it if needed), click the checkbox that says "Edit Timestamp".
3. Enter in the date and time on which you want the post to future-publish.
4. Click "Publish".

When you go to "Manage" in your admin panel, you'll see all posts that have been published, and the ones you set to post in the future will be listed with the status of "Scheduled".

When someone visits your blog after the set date and time of your future post the wordpress cron will automatically post your article.

Hows that? Fresh content on a daily basis.

Those using wordpress to make mini niche resource sites who buy over 20 articles for their sites can do this. It gives guest the impression that a daily bloggers exists.

It allows allows adequate time for indexing. Making 30 posts at once will take time for Google to index them, but 1 post per day for a month looks more natural.

Future posting is not only useful for us lazy bloggers, but useful if you're away. Going on vacation, Christmas, religious festivals....whatever the reason for your absence.

Yeah, I do this with my entertainment blog. I sit down and make around 20 - 40 posts and set it to post one per day. The blog ran out of posts to publish and I haven't had time to do 20 - 40 posts again. Once I get some time I will make up to 100 posts ready to be publish so I don't have to worry about it.

amazing how you do so many post?

My entertainment blog is pretty easy to run. Some times I need to write and other times I just need to put a youtube video in the post. Well every post has a video because that's the entertainment. Me writing is to make people laugh or want to see the video.

good to know that you are doing both. It should attract visitor and reader

Does anyone know if Blogger has this function? I have some posts that I have ready on a Microsoft Word document and it would be great if I could just set it all up on one day and forget about it for a few days.

Yes this is a function often under-utilised by bloggers using WordPress. I admit that I fall into this category as well, but I am planning to do this. And to answer a question, no, Blogger does not have this function AFAIK.

I use my own custom made CMS...
It does the job and I feel better cause i've coded it from scratch . Plus it means I can easily change the function of the site (to add new features or something) and add to the CMS to incorporate it.

ps I queue up blog posts quite a bit (I get paid to make a weekly blogpost). I usually queue them up a day or 2 in advance, or even weeks if I get bored and write another post and/or am going away for a bit. It's a great feature of WP.

You don't really need to know much about coding to have a CMS based site. There is a lot of help available online which explains the features and also the commands etc that you may want to enter in and around your website.
