It was brought home to me by my mentor here in WA, that, as the people who build and maintain websites, we are the webmasters. Making all additions and corrections as well as the daily activities is up to us.
I have been a member of WA since summer of 2018 -- nearly three years -- and I have learned a great deal. The training is very thorough and complete, but I still stumble over what I should do next.
I am not a website guru. I am a student, trying to learn enough to make a go of my website. By borrowing from the training and from answers you have given, webmaster tasks can be something we do daily, weekly, or monthly. I'll divide these tasks up in the way I do them -- you may choose to schedule differently.
As you read through this tutorial, if you think of something you feel needs to be added, please let us all know in the comments at the end. Perhaps we can come up with a list that will benefit many.
An excellent idea and a very useful cribsheet!
I'm not sure what the scope of webmaster covers in your mind...
does it include capturing writing ideas through to publishing (and all steps in between)? If it does...
I have a system within which I capture ideas, which can come up at any time... I review them weekly, discard the rubbish, otherwise keep them and schedule for research and development.

yesterday I spent nearly 3 hours rectifying 22 broken links (some were 2 months old, one was from a post I had literally published the day before)
I will not be leaving it so long this time. I do have the Broken Link Checker, but it only works if you bother to check it (which I obviously didn't).....😗
I think routine and scheduling takes the choice out of procrastination... We have this for our YouTube filming and we never miss an upload, so why not for blogging? For me it's about ALWAYS keeping the bigger picture and the medium and long term goals in place because often I can be easily distracted with posts and comments especially if it's from Partha, I can lose a whole morning...lol simply because my daily schedule has flexibility written in....
