Hey guys what is up I am but chillin in My office right now and I'm actually Running it to come up with what blog Posts I'm going to write this week I'm Gonna write two blog posts this week Because I missed uploading last week and I figured that this is a great video Opportunity I've been honestly I've been Wanting to shoot this video for a while Talking about how I maintain my content Calendar and how I created it and coming Up with the ideas for clothes and stuff Like that so I figured point out for you Guys a long as I am at like the Beginning stages of creating a blog post Because honestly I do not even know no I Do not have anything even on my content Calendar this week for my blog post my YouTube content calendar is built out About a month in advance because there's A lot more content that I create on There I upload every three days on YouTube compared to my blog and only Upload once a week so I'm trying to Really be dedicated to my blog and make Sure that I'm sticking into that once a Week but YouTube is definitely taking my Priority recently so with that being Said I'm going to brainstorm some ideas On what blog posts I could write today And then we will go from there I created the template for my content Calendar a long time ago I think this is The exact same template that I started
Using when I launched my blog I just use Google sheets to manage my content Calendar that way if I am on my iPad or If I am on my desktop I can get access To it anywhere it's not like it's an Excel spreadsheet you know that's only Lives in one place like it is updated Automatically or I guess you could say It's updated instantly and I can get Access to it on whatever device am using So I really love using Google sheets and Some of the things that I include within My content calendar and keep it very Very simple it used to be a bit more Broken out and used to come with the Keywords and a general topic so that I Knew I wasn't just posting about Pinterest three times in a row and now That I'm so used to doing this I can see If I'm posting about Pinterest three Times in a row so I don't feel like I Need that certain topic there but some Of the things that I pay attention to Are the number so what number blog post That is because when I hit big Milestones I like to write certain blog Post so when I hit a 100 blog post I Ended up doing a giveaway for it and Then when I hit 200 which will probably Be maybe mid This year I will probably do another Giveaway for it and I might write a Special blog post for that so I'd like To pay attention to the number what
Number is like how many blog posts I Have lunch I like to pay attention to The launch date of course whether it is Complete and then the title and some Additional notes as well and then also Within my content calendar I do have an Idea section so if I ever have someone Write out to me on an Instagram or just Through email saying hey what are your Thoughts on this topic I will put that In the idea section and I will go Through those then and decide what ones Are worth doing other times if I have Someone give me an idea that I think is Really important then I want to write About immediately I do make sure that I Put them directly in my content calendar Within my schedule so that I can write Them because otherwise they might get Left behind so I do still have some Ideas in there and I think that's where I'm going to get started one thing I Also consider when it comes to like Planning out my content calendar I don't Like too many posts that start the same Way so like if I have too many lists in A row I don't really like that as well As too many how to is in a row and the Past like four or so of mine have been Held to post so I need to do something Other than a how to post today So I've got the two blog posts I'm going To write I figured them out so I've got The two next to Vogue pose figured out
