How To Write More Content In Your Blog Every Month

I want to begin by saying since I came back (almost a month now) I worked very hard not only at my blog but also to improve myself. What do I mean with that? I was thinking, how I can stop wasting time and do more things in less time.

First of all, I had to "count" how much time I spent daily to do all the things I want in my blog. My results were awful. YES, AWFUL.

I spent 5-6 hours a day, and I practically didn't do so many things. Yes i was able to learn something every day (not master it...just learn it. *You can't master anything in one day*), write my blog post, find keywords and many other things that I want so I can have a "nice blog" that I can be happy and proud having it.

5-6 hours might seem average to anyone here, but I know for sure a lot of people don't/can't spend so much time every day working.

My Purpose

One of the things, I want to write this blog post is to help some people save time daily and help you do more stuff in less time.

If you have a question similar to "is this possible?" then let me tell you, YES IT IS!

So again, my purpose is to help you write more, work at your blog, maybe create the sales page you never had that precious time to do it, or any other page/post/whatever you want to create.

My Successful Experiment

Below I will do my best to explain to you what I did, how I did, and how you can do it.



Let me tell my problems, one by one.

1) Write Post Every Month (15 minimum)
2) Find Keywords (15 minimum)
3) Create the pages I need, (sales, landing, optin, etc.)
4) Don't spend much time researching, and writing a blog post.
5) Based on the step 4...but I want high-quality posts.
6) Always be one step ahead so I can relax 1-2 days per week.

If you look at these "problems" you will probably realize that they are ubiquitous, you maybe have one of those problems too... If you don't, congratulations, you are doing an amazing job.

Well, I wanted to find a way to never worry about those 6 problems that couldn't let me sleep.
I had to do something about it.

So I wrote down my problems and tried to figure out how to solve them.

In my opinion "Business means - solving a problem every day. The more you solve, the closer you are to succeed."

So let me show you what my results were.

1) I spend 2-3 hours (in most cases) to write a blog post.
2) Approximately 15 minutes to find a good keyword. (less in some cases)
3) Never managed to create the things I want, even though I have the tools to do it.
4) 1-2 Hours to do simple research about the post I'm going to write.
5) Nothing to add here.
6) I was never one step ahead.

As you can see these results might seem not bad, but maybe not so good either.

So let's "jump" a few paragraphs and show you my results after almost a month.

1) I managed to write a post in 53 minutes.
2) The time for a keyword was almost the same. (always be careful when you want to find keywords. it's essential if you want to rank)
3) I'm in the process of creating an opt-in form and landing page.
4) 1 Hour to do my research for multiple posts (I'll explain below)
5) Always trying to have quality posts.
6) I can finally relax 1-2 days a week.

As you can see, I have some improvement, and finally, have progress.

My Strategy

Again, I did this always to be one step ahead and never have to worry about not publishing a post or create something that I have to do it quickly.

My strategy is simple,

1)...
That was the most difficult problem to solve. Spending 2-3 hours in a post might be boring some times, and let's be honest, and most people quit because they have to create content.

So when I wrote a post, I wasn't prepared for it. What do I mean with that? I just found out the keyword I wanted to write, and I did my research after I found the keyword, I started to write after this.

Well, tell me this in the comments. Is this the way you write a post? If you don't have a problem with that, that's fine. If you want to have more time to keep reading.

I knew that was a problem, and I had to change.
What I did was to solve one problem every day.

I started from keywords. I said to myself, and I need 15 keywords right? I'm going to find all 15 for the month. So from 1/2/2019 until 2/2/2019 (day/month/year), I found all my 15 keywords.

So that's how I solved the first problem. Done.

Now researching was also time-consuming when I wanted to write posts (and a bit boring).

So what I did, I created "templates" (that's how I call them at least) and wrote all the heading, and even including what I'm going to write in this section. Let me give you an example.

Let's say that you want to write a post about headphones.

You already have to keyword, (completed)
You didn't research it.
You want a quality post, (minimum 1000 words) you have 0.

Unfortunately, research is something that you have to do if you want to review anything, But you can save time with templates.

Inside the template create headings that you probably use for your posts.
Example:

Why this "headphone" Is Unique.

How to connect this headphone at PS4

Headphone Pricing & Why Worth buying.

Next Headline

Next Headline.


After I've prepared my headings. I'll write what I want to include in every heading.

Example:


Headphone Pricing & Why Worth Buying.

Include pricing,

Worth buying - good audio, beautiful bass sound, ear protection. Different customization.

*You will obviously have to write more, this is just an example*

* I created templates that they have almost 1000 words* I created once, I'll use it for months or even years. I spent 1-2 hours creating the template. It saved me almost 15-25 hours every month.

Let Me Show You What You Accomplished

Now in case that you work the same hours as before, you will spend 2-3 days completing all the steps but, you are prepared to write all the post you want for this month.


What you have accomplished in 4 days.

You have 15 keywords,
You have 15 "templates" (in most cases templates are similar.)
You've done your research already. (how you created headlines and know what to write? It's because you already researched the "headphones")
You will write better posts, because you won't forget any ideas again, and you will always be prepared to write 1000+ words in 45 minutes.

So If you prepare 3 posts per day, that's 135 minutes (2 hours and 15 minutes).
If you have 15 posts that you want to complete. it will take you 5 days (always approximately, we are not robots.)

So you spend 4 days researching and doing everything to be prepared when you want to write. And another 5 days to write the posts. 4+5=9. If we say that every month have 30 days, you still have 21 days left to do whatever you like.

*Tip: Don't write all 3 posts without a break between them. If you don't, you will probably find it challenging to write the other posts.*
Trust me 15 posts as a beginner every month are a lot!

Most people believe that it's only found a keyword, research it, write it, rinse and repeat.

They forget that preparation is the key to success.

I did this in 10 days... I completed 15 posts while it took me a month to write the other 10 posts that I had in my blog.

Be prepared, and I promise you that you will feel so much better.

Sounds like a great approach. Thank you for sharing.

Have a great day.

Trevor

Hello Ioannis, this is a very good post, thank you. I am struggling to write more than 1 post per week, if I could increase to 2 posts, that would be great. So perhaps, if I do research for 8 posts on the first weekend & the headlines, then I can write the posts in the rest of the months. I work fulltime so only really have the weekends. What do you think? Does anyone else have tips on how to write more posts / be more efficient with it?

Hello. This blog might be helpful: Much also will depend on your working style. I keep a simple notebook with ideas for new blogs or pages, plus on site feedback/comments, I always ask for questions which give me ideas for new blogs.

Dont spend too much time on WA mails but look at a set number each day..you will learn from the questions & replies. & many are motivational too.

Have a great day.

Trevor

Thank you Trevor for your tips! Will also check out the post that you linked to!

Hello. You have good advice here, so there is not much to add. Be sure to read the blog listed below- it is concise and has all the ideas you need. One last thought: you are not in a race , you are on a journey. You will pick up speed as you learn.

Hello

That was just an experiment that I've made back then, and I still do up to this date. It's working fine for more so far but I want to tell you that everyone works differently...

I do this for a few reasons...

One of the most important parts (and most boring sometimes) is the research for the actual keyword...

Once I actually finish it for 2-3 or 10 keywords...

I can start writing (and only that) without wasting any more of my time...

So In my good days, I can write 2 articles per day (minimum 1500-2000 words)

But that's just me...I guess everyone has their own strategy. In my opinion, it's better to start with testing a few different things and see what's working the best for you.

Time is rare these days and I understand that.

I hope this helps.

All the best,
Ioannis

Great question and I believed that majority if not everyone struggles especially having full time job.
There are many options to solve these problems:
1. You can outsource your contents writing to ghostwriters but that route is expensive.
2. You can get a subscription for private label right (PLR) which is very cheap. They have a lot of prewritten contents that you can search using keywords from your Jaxy research. Then rewrite it using Grammarly to ensure it’s original (no plagiarism).
Sorry we not allow to provide links, but you can google PLR or read MelWaller’s blog on PLR through searching WA blogs-Keyword MelWaller.
3. My favorites: focus on solving a problem: Basically, for example, title: How to get out of debt and live a financial free life?
introduction of the problem-statistics of the debt problem, and insight of the failures of solutions in place.
Why do people get into debt? Is it lack of education about money? Bad luck, greed, etc.
What are the negative impacts of been in debt?
Etc.
In summary,
Freestyle when writing using what you thinking. Don’t worry about grammatical errors and facts.
After you written about a 1000 words, then you google individual questions like the how, what, why, etc.
then cite your sources and you are done.
Lastly, as long as it’s enriching and original you will be fine.
I hope this help.
Let me know if you need more help with any other stuff.

Great information - very useful!

Thanks so much for sharing!

Wish you smashing success!

Glad that you liked it.

All the best,
Ioannis

These tips are awesome! I'm giving it a shot. As a beginner I was wondering how people would write content really quick. Your process is similar to when I was a production painter for airplane parts. We found it faster to do the masking and taping on all the parts before we spray painted the parts. We noticed that we got a higher production output as a result. So I can see how this is similar.

Louis

Sometimes it's not how "hard" you work, but it's how smart you work.

I still want to improve myself and be better. I believe we can always get better. I know what you mean with your example, and the process is similar to this. To me, preparation is everything.
