HOW TO BE CONSISTENT IN BLOGGING LIFE – 5 EASY TASKS TO BLOG CONSISTENTLY

I will give you simple tasks to become a consistent blogger and live an effortless blogging life.

1. Always Set Goals

If you ask me one thing to make blogging a little easier I suggest setting blogging goals. It doesn’t matter how minor or big blog you run. If you often visit my blog, you had always seen my urge for setting goals.

Goal setting keeps business desires in an efficient manner. It reminds you about tasks you need to accomplish every day, week and month. If you have a blog planner or a goal setting workbook then it’s easy to blog consistently. However, a simple notebook even does the trick.

You got the plans. You know what to work every month. You have developed content strategies. You would like to publish 3 posts a week, increase social media followers, get email subscribers, send guest post pitches, purchase an ebook, invest in a course etc. There are a lot of things you need to do.

Here’s what you need to do;

• Create achievable goals.
• Keep your target audience in mind while setting goals.
• Establish a strong content strategy
• How much content and what type of content you share a week.
• What sort of posts to create.
• How many images to be inserted.
• Set time frames for multitasking.

These hints are just written to help you get some inspiration for goal setting.

For the exact method of setting goals, check out this post.

If you’ve already made blogging goals then blogging life becomes stress-free and more focused.

2. Schedule Content In Advance

Wondering, how to get your blog noticed?

The only step to building your online presence stronger every day is through scheduling the content in advance. It also helps to get your blog noticed to your targeted audience. This is equally important for increasing blog traffic.

Remember, if you disappear and fail to schedule content then readers will also forget you and the blog.

Even if you wish to take a gap or days off from blogging consider adding few posts in drafts and schedule it. This is a simple way to be consistent in blogging life. By doing this, your audience would still get the content from your blog. Right?

Check out ideas to save;

-Keep a pack of blogging ideas

To get blog things done, engage in social media communities and show your presence.

Consistency in blogging life is not just limited to Writing content or publishing posts. You’ve to interact and engage with your targeted audience.

This way, your readers will get a word from you every time. Keep audience engaged to your blog content.

4. Pick Smaller Tasks And Finish

One of the common mistakes many bloggers commit is trying to do multitasking every time.

Believe me, I’ve tried to experiment it multiple times.

The results were destructive. Very Poor.

I ended up doing nothing at all. (just being unproductive)

I started writing smaller tasks on my notebook or even Evernote (mobile app) every day. As I gained momentum to blog consistently, results got better each day.

Smaller tasks work! 

Pick up one or two tasks every day and try to accomplish it before you take another action.

5. Develop A Writing Habit

Blogging is never complete without writing. Both are connected with each other. Developing a writing habit is significantly essential for becoming consistent in blogging life.

Remember, writing should come from inside. Whatever you write, just do it from your own voice. It brings a flow to your writing and you’ll also love doing it every day without any hassle.

Take these steps and write freely.

• Look at your goals, and write accordingly.
• Make a cup of coffee or an energy booster.
• Set one writing task.
• Outline the post and write headlines.
• Take out 30 minutes every day for ‘pure’ writing.
• Write from your inside
• Shut down all the distractions.

Everyone has different schedules and routines.

You have to set aside writing hours for regular writing. No one can do it better than YOU!

P.S: Don’t wait for another day to start writing. Just do it now. Take out a notebook and set an hour for writing. Pick one step and follow it.
