But hey, some of us don't catch on as fast as others! So here you go, my list of things I have been learning about blogging:
- Jump Break- This is a thing. I had no idea what the point of this was until I was trying to re-arrange the look of my blog. I didn't like having to scroll through the whole blog to get to the next one. It's like a movie preview on your blog page....but for reading!
- Scheduling- I never paid attention to the little word "schedule" when I was making my posts in the past. I always struggled to stay ahead of my posts and it would make me frustrated. This little tool has been a game changer for me. It means that I can do a blog way ahead of time and then schedule it to post on the date I want it to. Even at the time I want it to. For instance I am writing this post on Monday, October 24th but I am not having it post till October 31st at 8am. GENIUS!
- Journal- In the past, I would look for ideas, scratch my head wondering what people wanted to read and generally feeling like I had nothing to offer. This time around, I really thought about why I was wanting to blog again. Once, I had that down, I started figuring out how and when I wanted to present this. For me, it means having certain days that I will present different types of posts. Which meant that I needed to keep track of the mess in my head somewhere. I started on the computer, but I am a tactile person and prefer making actual pen and paper notes. Enter pink notebook and my favorite pen!
- Uploading Pictures- The sooner, the better. That's all I am going to say. Nothing more frustrating than sitting down to work on a blog and having spend time uploading the pictures for that post....
Till next time...
Have a blessed day and embrace the craziness in your life!
