Someone asked me how to schedule a blogpost yesterday so I thought I'd post the instructions here to let everyone know how easy it is and that you should use it often. Many bloggers complain that it's time consuming to update their blogs, so here is a useful tip! When you find yourself with any extra time, then simply write a few blog posts in advance and just schedule your blogposts to publish at various times over the next few days, weeks or even months! That way you always appear to have fresh content, even when you're not around! It's a great idea to use during the hectic summer vacation period as well.
Here's how to do it with the 2 most popular blogging platforms:
Blogspot: After you are done writing your blogpost just click on the bottom left corner where it says "Post Options" and then manually type in the date and time you would like it to be published, according to the format shown in that box. That's the only change to make!
Wordpress: When you are done writing then you go to the right side where it says publish immediately and you click to edit that section. There is a drop down and field boxes to fill in with the date/time you want changed and then you click "schedule". You're done!
...and that is how you schedule a blogpost. Now you can finally leave your computer and go on that trip you always dreamed about! lol
