What is a content calendar?

Your content calendar - also known as you editorial calendar - is an easy-to-follow plan of your blogging schedule - i.e. what you're going to be blogging about and when.

Fortunately, as advocates of WordPress, there are of course plugins for this. I use and particularly recommend WordPress plugin Editorial Calendar: CLICK HERE for more details.

But if you prefer, you can of course also use an Excel spreadsheet or even a simply diary.

Hi Dani,
When you have installed it, you need to activate it - apologies if you've already done this. Then, if you go to your Posts menu item in Wordpress, you'll see the calendar listed there. One thing I forgot to mention is that you can schedule posts from within the post - if that makes sense! Then review your post schedule using the Posts/Calendar button. Hope that all makes sense. Let me know if not. :-)
Thanks also for your kind words. You are very kind.
Thanks again,
Sean
