How to schedule your posts in Wordpress using Gutenberg or Classic Editor
I'm pretty sure that you already know that you can schedule your posts to be published at a future time ... In other words, you don't have to worry about going live at a specific time ...
But, let's start with the obvious question: why schedule posts in Wordpress?
Well, content creation is a never ending process ... which requires a strategy ... And the best strategy is to plan your editorial calendar and to publish your articles on a regular basis. That's where scheduling comes in handy ... You can create your posts at your preferred, optimal pace and once you finish writing, you can schedule them to be published at a specific day and time.
And of course, there are also other benefits ... Scheduling posts also comes in handy when you are going on vacation. Once you're done scheduling your blog posts, you can enjoy your holiday without worrying about writing and publishing content ... More than that, the scheduling feature will allow you to benefit from peak traffic hours! Every day there is a certain time when your site gets the peak of your users ... If you are going to publish your posts at that specific time, you'll be able to leverage your traffic to efficiently increase your pageviews. But, you can live in a completely different time zone than your readers, and that could be quite annoying if the peak time is at 4 A.M. according to your time zone ... In a similar situation the scheduling feature can be very handy ...
As you can see, this simple Wordpress feature - which is slightly hidden and many beginners don’t even notice it - can be an extremely useful asset ... So I've decided to create this short tutorial where I will show you how easy is to efficiently schedule your Wordpress posts.

This sound good and I use to do that but then I learned is good to send a broadcast out to my kid and Jay's 7 steps strategies after the post.
So what is working for me is, I save about a week or two to draft, then when my scheduling comes up I hit the publish button and then the other stuff, like Jaaxy and Fetch as Google.
I guess is it possible that I can do that after I come back from my vacation, right? Thank you for sharing.
