Ok so you have your topic or topics selected, you have your platform chosen and now you have your theme picked out. Great so you have a blog, well not quite, now you need the hard part, the content.
Deciding what to write and when to write it is one of the hardest parts of creating a blog and one of the primary reasons blogs are abandoned. People just run out of steam, they get stuck with what to write and feel that they no longer have something of value to say.
So before you start posting, map out a few weeks worth of posts. Pick some topics and sub-topics that you want to write about and create a few posts, save them as drafts. This is an especially valuable exercise as it will get you into the habit of creating more content than you need at anyone time and that way if you are ever unable to blog, you can just publish one of your back up posts.
The secret as with any undertaking in business is to plan. A strong blog will have a well thought out blogging plan behind it and the writer or writers will ensure that they stick mostly to the plan. Doing it this way means you will have to spend less time thinking about what to write and more time actually writing.
