Here it is another brand new week, wow time flies doesn’t it?
I can’t believe that it’s been a little over 7 months now working on my blog. When I first started my blog, I was a mess. I didn’t have a structure of what needed to be done.
So I worked on things that really didn’t matter. I was always busy, but I wasn’t actually doing anything worthwhile. Now, I am writing down my goals of what I want to accomplish and working on those goals.

I am finally getting a rhythm and I’m even getting to a point where I have my weekly blogging duties down to a T. I don’t write them down in stone, because if I need to tweak something, I will.
But at least now I have some type of roadmap that I’ve created that’s actually helping me grow my blog.
Well, I’m not really that organized, I wish I was. However, I’ve been listening to some productivity podcasts and trying to get to a point where I know what I’ll be working on when I get to my computer.

It doesn’t always pan out that way, but I am getting a little bit better. So I wanted to share with you my weekly blogging duties that are subject to change depending on the results they bring.
My Weekly Blogging Duties
I am not as organized as some people who have their duties broken down to the exact minute. Instead, I have mine broken down by day of the week.
I’ll work my system like this for a while and see how if it helps me get things done on a timely manner. If not then I’ll tweak it until I am able to come up with something that helps me become more productive.
The main thing I want to focus on with this system is being as productive as possible. While focusing only on the things that matter in my business.
As you know, I don’t have all day to work on my blog. I am still working on my freelancing gig, so I whenever I work on my blog, I need to make sure that I am using my time wisely.
So here are is an inside look at my weekly blogging duties that I’ve been using to help me grow my blog.
Sunday
While I was trying to take more time off on Sunday’s I am now using it to prep for the week. As you know, I’ve been trying to improve my Pinterest traffic and have been using Sunday’s to watch the Board Booster tutorial videos. I’ve also just started fixing my images and making them more Pinnable.
I changed one of my images last week and was amazed at how many times it actually got re-pinned and clicks. Now I know that re-pins and clicks don’t mean anything if you’re not getting people to take action.

The action I want people to take on my blog is to sign up for my 7 day WordPress course. I am constantly trying to improve my email course to help people. I love it when people send me emails like this one. (it makes me feel like I am really helping people)
After all, I really want to help people with WordPress. Right now, working on the techie side of WordPress is my strongest suit.
Growing my blog is a work in progress, that’s why I’ve decided to share my progress with you.
Maybe, through sharing the steps I am taking will help you grow your blog as well.
After fixing that image, I got 4 people last week to sign up for my email list. Which is the most email subscriber’s I’ve ever had in a day 🙂
So maybe there is something to creating awesome images.
Now I am using Sunday evenings, to go back through my top blog posts and fix my images. I am also using Sunday’s to pin images from the Tribes that I belong to using Tailwind.
Tailwind is the pinning scheduler that I use to help me automate Pinterest. (It’s $10/month or $120 for the year, which is the one that I purchased). It’s helped me get to the point where I am pinning 35 pins per day, without me spending all day on it.
Monday
Monday is when I usually spend time working on a new blog post. I also have a new blog post scheduled to go live every Tuesday, so I’ll spend time checking my scheduled post for Tuesday and make sure that everything is good.
I usually don’t spend more than 5 minutes checking that blog post, as the post is already written and I’ve already created the images, I just go in and re-check everything to make sure that I didn’t miss anything.
I’ve now started spending Monday’s working on writing. As you know, I make it a point to write 1,000 words every day. I’ll be honest, it doesn’t always happen. Sometimes, I’ll have to stop working on my blog and work on my freelance business.
However, my goal for Monday, is to get at least 2 blog posts pre-written. I have a Google Drive document that has tons of blog topics that I can write about.
I have an exact clone of my live site on my desktop, since I use Desktop Server. This is where I write all my blog posts and guest posts.
Tuesday
Every Tuesday, I publish a new post on my blog. All my blog posts are published around 5:00 AM. As soon as I get up that morning, I’ll spend time promoting my newly published post.
I’ve gotten my promotion technique down to where it only takes me 15 minutes to promote my new blog post as soon as it’s live.
The first thing I do is add it to Facebook and my Tailwind queue. I’ll then add it to my Smarter Queue to automate the promotion process without me having to lift a finger.
After my blog post promotion, I’ll spend time editing and working my YouTube video that is scheduled to be published Wednesday morning. Currently I have about 22 videos on my YouTube channel.
Usually, my video is already created (hopefully) so I’ll just make some quick edits inside of Final Cut Pro to add my intro and make any quick edits. Next, I’ll use Canva to create my custom Thumbnail and write out a description of my YouTube video.
Wednesday
Wednesday, I’ll upload my video to YouTube and add my description and thumbnail. Next, I’ll add a call-to-action to my video.
YouTube will automatically post my video to Google Plus and I will add it to my Facebook page. I could automate the process, but for some reason, I just don’t.
After that, I really don’t spend a lot of time promoting my videos. I know that I should, but as I mentioned, I am just getting to a point where I am getting a rhythm with my blog. If I try to throw in more tasks right now, I may end up getting frazzled again, and I can’t have that happening.
I guess this is the reason why my YouTube channel only has 27 subscribers right now. Oh well, I’ll eventually come up with a productive plan for marketing my YouTube channel.
Thursday or Friday
This isn’t a task that I do every week. However, when I find that it’s time to create videos for my YouTube channel, I’ll usually create them on Thursday’s or Friday’s.
I’ll pull out my Blue Yeti and open up Camtasia and spend a few hours creating videos.
Just like my blog posts, whenever I create my videos, I’ll create several at one time. I won’t spend any time editing, creating thumbnails or descriptions.
Instead, I just focus on recording. Right now I have 3 videos that have already been recorded, so this means I don’t have to worry about creating another for a few weeks.
I have several topics on what type of videos I’ll create as I have them written on Google Drive just like I do with my blog posts.
Tasks I Do Monday – Friday
Everyone who has a blog has those daily tasks that they do each and every day to help them grow their blog. I’m no different, in fact, these are tasks that I do no matter what.
Daily Tasks
I spend about 30 minutes every day commenting on other blogs. Commenting on blogs is a great way to start networking with other bloggers. Blog commenting has helped me land 3 guest posting opportunities, that I probably wouldn’t have found without taking the time to comment.
Share my blog posts with Facebook blogging groups. (I’ve found several Facebook groups just by doing a search in Google and finding which groups my favorite bloggers were in!)
Whenever I come up with some new blog post ideas, I’ll add them to my Google Drive document to help me stay organized.
Important Tip
As a new blogger, you’re going to be spending a lot of time creating content for your blog. The last thing you want to do is make it hard for people to share your awesome content.
Find a plugin that makes it easy for people to share your content. I personally use Social Warfare plugin. I’ve even written tons of tutorials that will help you make the most of this plugin that is responsible for my blog’s growth.

Areas That Need Improvement
You may have heard so many bloggers say that Pinterest is a goldmine of traffic. Right now, it’s my 2nd biggest traffic referrer. I know that I can definitely improve those stats, so as I mentioned, I am working on improving the images for my top posts.
Networking with other bloggers. As I mentioned, I do spend 30 minutes per day commenting on other blogs. However, that’s really not enough. I need to start reaching out to other bloggers using social media and other networking channels.
However, for some reason, I’ve been holding back on actually reaching out.
I’m not as consistent with blogger outreach as I could be. I’m working on fixing that and I know I will. It just takes time, like everything else when it comes to blogging.
I’ve heard so many people say that you should create a spreadsheet of the blogs that you would love to guest post for. I still haven’t taken the time to do this, not sure why, I guess I’m just being lazy.
Just by implementing these weekly blogging tasks I’ve found myself to be more productive. I still have those days when I find myself working on things that really won’t help my blog grow.
I’m human, and I expect to mess up a little. I just know what I want to achieve and I’ll remind myself that I need to focus and get back on track.
Personal Areas I Work On Every Week
Growing my blog is my main goal so I can walk away from freelancing. However, I do understand the importance of working on myself as well.
I make it a point to spend time working on my personal development every day. I also make it a point to walk away from my computer and exercise every day. (it’s hard sometimes for me to walk away, especially, if I am in the middle of something)
I actually just invested in the Fitbit Surge to help me stay in tip-top shape and reach some health goals. My goal is to start working on building muscle mass.
I used to be a member of Planet Fitness, but now that the weather is warmer I love doing my workouts outside in the sun.
I really do enjoy exercising, so it doesn’t feel like a chore.
Final Take Away
Whenever I get in front of my computer to work on growing my blog, I have to be sure that I am using that time wisely. As I mentioned above, these daily tasks are NOT written in stone and I’m always flexible and willing to change things up according to what’s actually helping me grow my blog.
As a blogger, it’s important to find out which daily tasks are actually helping you grow your blog and reach your goals.
This is why it’s so important to check your Analytics on a regular basis. It’ll tell you which posts are most popular, where your traffic is coming from and etc…

What do your daily or weekly duties look like? Let me know in the comments below, I always love reading what people are doing to grow their blog!!
I like that you made a workable schedule. It is great! I work a schedule everyday. I am a Virtual Assistant to bloggers plus a blogger myself. I organize my time to give myself breaks, time with my little girl and where I am able to relax and read a book. You have to find a schedule that works for you!
Hi Misty,
I totally agree with you about creating a workable schedule. When I first started my blog, I was working so much it was crazy and driving myself insane.
It wasn’t until this week that I finally decided to create a schedule that allows me to take more time off. After all, most of us are creating our blog because we want the freedom lifestyle that comes with blogging.
It’s not good if we’re constantly sitting in front of our computer working on our blogs. While I do work on my blog everyday, I now have a schedule that allows me to take more time off.
I love it that you get to spend more time with your family and read a book. I love reading books and read try to read one every week.
Thanks for taking the time to stop by and commenting.
Have a great day 🙂
Susan
Hey Susan,
It’s always great to read such post. People are striving to build their blogging business but most of them fail because of the lack of a perfect schedule.
If you follow the things mentioned above, you can definitely be going to succeed. Tuesday can be effective for publishing the post depending on the type of audience you have.
Even I should do some changes in my schedule.
Thanks for sharing with us.
~Ravi
Hi Ravi,
Since I’ve started working from a schedule, although I’m not perfect, I feel so much more productive. I know that my schedule is tentative to change according to the growth of my blog.
However, when I wake up and start working, I now know what I will be working on. This has definitely made me more productive.
If I notice that something isn’t working for the growth of my blog or I need to add something else, I will. But for now, this schedule has definitely given me some sense of balance, which is great.
Thanks for taking the time to stop by and let me know what changes you’re making in your schedule.
Have a great one 🙂
Susan
Hi Susan,
This is helpful for bloggers who are overwhelmed with blogging tasks and need a weekly schedule. I’ve posted various blogging schedules three times! =)
Janice
Been trying to get into scheduling time but it is so difficult but it helps to see others plans.
I love the systemization side of blogging. It’s amazing how organized and effective one person can be with all the automation available. Pretty cool when you’re publishing a post, Tweeting, Pinning, and writing a new post all at the same time 😉
I’ve found that every site I work on eventually finds its way into a few post categories and the steps to create new content become a lot more obvious. One of the best things I’ve done is to set up checklists for both my content creation and editing processes. That really helps me stay focused and publish with consistency.
O that’s Great, Thanks for share personal Strategy of week thanks
your post truly guides us ,thanx
it is very essential for beginners to take guidance from experts like you
Hi Janice,
Yeah, I think it’s important to have a blogging schedule, there’s always so much to do. It can drive one crazy trying to get everything accomplished.
Wow, 3 blogging schedules, I am sure that mine will change at one point.
Thanks for taking the time to stop by and comment, have a great day 🙂
Susan
Hi Nabeeda,
I totally agree with you about blogging being difficult. There’s always so much to do, it can be confusing on what to work on. Hopefully, my blogging schedule helps you put one together that works for you.
Have a great day and thanks for taking the time to stop by and comment.
Susan
Hi Ben,
Glad that you’ve found a system that works for you. It took me a while to find my system and I am sure at one point it will change. Right now this blogging schedule works for me and it is helping me become more balanced.
Thanks for taking the time to stop by and comment.
Have a great day 🙂

Hi Nalayak,
Thank for the comment and I hope that by reading my blogging schedule, it helps you create one for yourself that helps you become more productive.
Have a great day 🙂

Hello Susan
scheduling your day to day job can help bloggers to organize their timing and pitching everything perfectly. Few months ago I started to schedule my everyday job and its really a time saving. Well I will add some of your tips which you have mentioned here to keep my day more organized. Thanks for this great post.
Hi Vishwajeet,
Scheduling can definitely help us stay more organized. Just wish I would’ve started scheduling earlier, it’s definitely helped me become more organized.
So glad to hear that you’ve already been doing it to. Thanks for taking the time to stop by and comment.
Have a great day 🙂
Susan
Hey Susan,
I am alll about the schedule too! My goal is to just make everything I do for my blog a habit that feels like routine so I dont even have to wonder what I’m doing today.
Thanks for sharing yours,
Hi Nadalie,
Thanks for taking the time to stop by and comment. You’re definitely on the right track about making our blog tasks more of a routine. Since I’ve started working with a schedule, I’ve been more productive.
It’s nice to know what I’ll be working on for the day instead of trying to multi-task. I seem to get more done and I know what needs to be done on those days. Plus, I am now able to walk away from my blog, knowing that I got those important tasks done.
Thanks for taking the time to stop by and comment, have a great day 🙂
Susan
Hi Susan,
A fellow Tuesday poster 😉
I also am fine-tuning my sked more than ever these days. Writing 1-5 guest posts daily. Blog commenting really in depth too on a wide range of blogs. I focus heavily on the most well read blogs but build bonds thru all types of sites. Fun to do and yes, even if it feels tough to schedule and still have an offline life by doing this I know it is leading me in the right direction.
Thanks for sharing your blogging sked with us 🙂 So helpful for me to get inside the mind of a fellow rocking blogger.
Ryan
Hey Ryan,
Wow, 1-5 guest posts per week. It still amazes me how much content you write everyday. Maybe one day, I’ll be just as good as you 🙂
Totally agree with you about fine tuning your schedule to suit your needs. I know that my schedule will not be the same it is 6 months from today. It all depends on what’s working and what isn’t so I can make tweaks and get better results.
Your right sacrificing a little of our offline life is not a bad thing, as long as we know that everything we do is leading to a better life.
Thanks for taking the time to stop by and thanks for the compliment.
Have a great day 🙂
Susan
I love that every day is planned out I definitely need to organize more like this!
Hi Amanda,
I’m really not that organized, but I seem to be doing pretty good with this schedule. It’s definitely a work in progress for following it, but I am always willing to make changes if I need to.
Thanks for taking the time to stop by and comment, have a great day 🙂
Susan
Glad that I stumbled upon this post.
I often find myself struggling to create regular posts for my personal blog while doing a 9-5 job.
This weekly blogging schedule might help me to manage my time.
Thanks for sharing this.
Hi Sammy,
So glad you found my blog post, hopefully it will help you create your own blogging schedule. I can only imagine how difficult it can be to create regular blog posts while working a 9-5.
I don’t have a typical 9-5, but I still work as a freelancer. So I don’t get to work on my blog all day. I have to find ways to be as productive as possible to get those important tasks completed.
Since I’ve started working with a schedule, I seem to be more productive.
Thanks for taking the time to stop by and commenting.
Have a great day 🙂
Susan
It’s so useful to read your detailed schedule as an example, thanks for this! Now I just need more time!
Hi Nicole,
Glad you liked me schedule, hopefully, it will help you come up with your own schedule.
Totally agree with you, sometimes it can be a challenge to find time to work on our blogs.
Thanks for taking the time to stop by and comment.
Have a great day 🙂
Susan
This is a very brilliant post Susan,
First of all, I must say that I’m happy to be here again. It’s been a long time actually :).
I think this is what every serious blogger should do. Having a daily and weekly routine for a business will always enhance its growth.
However, I must admit that I suck at this. I don’t have a routine and that is affecting me badly. You know, for some years now, I’ve not been working on my blog: topbloggingcoach.com, and that was because at a point, I became frustrated with it as it wasn’t making me money. That forced me to abandon it and focus more on freelance writing which I’m still doing now.
However, early this year, I started two niche blogs on different niches outside the IM niche, and that’s where I’ve been putting most of my time. Have published some articles on both of them and good enough, they’ve both made their first sales on Amazon.
But, blog promotion is where I suck at big time. I do know how good pinterest is at driving referral traffic but, I don’t just understand how it works. I guess I’ll have to take my time to learn it because the two sites will be good with the platform.
Also, blogger outreach is one area I want to give full attention to now so I can connect with other bloggers in my niche and probably land some guest posting opportunities.
Don’t you have any good guide on Pinterest marketing you could point me to?
I’ll have to look at this your weekly schedule, maybe I’ll copy you :).
Thanks for sharing.
Hi Theodore,
I totally understand being frustrated with a blog that isn’t making money. My blog currently doesn’t make any money. I’ve made one affiliate sale, but nothing to be able to walk away from my freelancing business.
So like you, I currently work as a freelancer. I am not a freelance writer, I am a WordPress freelancer.
Anyway, so glad that you started some new niche blogs that are now starting to make money. It definitely takes a lot of work to start seeing profits. You seem to be doing well outside of the IM niche.
I am NOT that great at blog promotion and everything I do is a learning curve. I do want this blog to grow, so I am learning as much as I can. As for Pinterest, I have purchased this course. It definitely helped me understand it, especially, since I didn’t know what Pinterest was or I had never used it before this blog.
If you do start Pinterest, just give it some time. It takes time to start seeing traffic. Pin other people’s pins more than you pin your own. I focus on pinning 70% other people’s pins and 30% of my own. Of course everyone is different, but this seems to be working. I recommend using an automated scheduler so you won’t spend so much time on Pinterest. I use Tailwind and it is working great.
Pinterest is now my 2nd biggest traffic referrer. Right now, I am working on improving my images for my top posts. I am trying to diversity my traffic as I don’t want to rely 100% on just one source.
I am not that great with blogger outreach either. However, I have done 4 guest posts so far. My goal is to do 2-3 guest posts per month, but it hasn’t happened yet. One day, I’ll get better at guest posting and reaching out.
The only thing I can say about guest posting is just reach out to the blogger. Don’t be scared to get turned down. I’ve been turned down and ignored before, and I know that I’ll be turned down again. However, I know that I want to reach a full-time income with my blog, so I keep reaching out. I don’t even care if I get turned down, eventually, someone will say yes.
Look 4 people have already agreed to let me guest post on their blog, so people will say yes 🙂
Feel free to copy me, just know that what I do may not necessarily work for your blog. Be sure to come back and let me know if you put my blogging duties to work for yourself.
I do believe it’s important to have some type of routine for your blog. Since using this schedule, I have been more productive.
Thanks for taking the time to stop by and comment, I hope your blogs become more profitable and you figure out how to get started with Pinterest.
Have a great one 🙂
Susan
Thanks a lot Susan,
I’ll check out the course and see what I can do with it.
Thanks a lot for your tips, and sure, I’ll let you know how it goes.
Hi Theodore,
Not a problem, as I mentioned, I am still learning how to use Pinterest effectively. However, that course did help me get started with it without having to spend a lot of time searching for free information online.
Do let me know how it goes. I would love to hear about your success with Pinterest. Maybe since you’re not in the IM niche, you’ll have faster results than I’ve had….I hope so.
Have a great one 🙂
Susan
Hi, Susan. First time commenting, do follow you on Twitter though (and of course on Pretty Darn Cute Designs forums).
I’ve gone through a number schedules over the years. There was a point I was publishing new posts every day. Not all great, but it was when I thought I had to publish daily to be seen.
My schedule for blogging is centered around my freelancing too. Currently, I’m working on daily themes. ex. Monday – calls; Tuesday – blogs; Wed. – emails; Th. – social media; and Fri. – Admin.
For the most part, it works. I do batching on these days. Like you, I try and bundle my blog writing – at least two pre-written posts per Tuesday.
Enjoy your day,
Hi Sara,
Welcome to my blog and I appreciate your support. Yeah, blogging around freelancing is not very easy…at least for me it isn’t.
So glad to see that you’ve gotten a system down that works for you.
I’ve definitely found it easier to maintain my blog when I batch my article writing. This way if I have to do some freelancing work, I won’t have to worry about neglecting my blog.
Thanks for taking the time to comment, I hope you’re having a great Memorial Day Weekend.
Susan
Awesome article Susan. Definitely a good template for beginning bloggers to follow. I struggle with being organized, so this helps a lot. Thanks again!
Hi Wallace,
So glad that sharing what I do on a weekly duty in my blogging business helped you. I know it always helps me when I read what others are doing to grow their blog.
I am not that great at organizing either, you should see my computer desk.
Have a great one 🙂
Susan
Hi, Susan!
Seems like a great plan. It gives a new blogger a great perspective on what the need to do in order to succeed in blogging. This is good! Thanks, I’ll check it out and try to apply it to my life.
Thanks again!
Marios
Hi Marios,
It definitely helps me to know what I need to work on. Of course, I am always willing to tweak things if I notice that something isn’t working or I need to do something else.
Like we know, things don’t always working out the way that we want.
Let me know how it goes for you once you set up your blogging duties. I’d love to hear if it helps you grow your blog.
Thanks for taking the time to stop by and comment, have a great day 🙂
Susan
Hey Susan! Hi! I just started Blogging (actually taking blogging seriously ????) your post was extremely helpful and I love your honesty!! I hope your blog is going great!
Hi Silvy,
Congrats on your blog, I checked it out and it looks great. Glad to hear that my post was helpful for you.
Good luck with your blogging journey and don’t hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions. I’ll do my best to help you out as best as I can.
Have a great day 🙂

Hello Susan Velez,
This is my first visit. Really impressed with your post about your blogging schedule.
Planning for Blogging is very important.
I am receiving emails and messages regularly as “How to earn money by Blogging”, “How to earn money online” regularly.
I feel blogging is not a one day game. It is a continueous process.
I am sending my answer with simple line – “First learn – Practise – Then think about EARNINGS”
After reading your post, I strongly recommend blogging schedule for my readers and clients.
Sunday to Saturday Scheduling is perfect.
I am also following my schedule as a full-time blogger since 2009.
Thanks for sharing your Blogging Schedule.
Regards
Satish Kumar Ithamsetty
Hi Satish,
First of all congrats on becoming a full-time blogger, that’s what I am working towards right now.
You’re definitely right, it takes a lot to grow a blog. I’ve definitely learned the importance of planning. When I wake up in the morning, I know what needs to be done and I work on those important A tasks.
I assume that you have a blogging schedule that you’ve been following since 2009?
Thanks for taking the time to stop by and I hope you have a wonderful New Year 🙂
Susan
This is useful information. You have given us your personal to-do list and explained everything concisely along the way 😉
Regards Dexter
Hi Dexter,
I am glad that you enjoyed the list. Some of those things have changed up a bit.
You have to find what is actually working to help you grow your blog and focus on that.
Thanks for taking the time to stop by and comment.
Have a great day 🙂
Susan
Hello there Suzan,
I can see from the comments in the post and social shares that it got, the post it’s just EPIC.
Many people are overwhelmed by the things that maintaining a blog requires. You have a really great plan strategy that for sure I will steal it (lol) and edit for my own needs.
Thanks again Sue for sharing such great blog posts.
Cheers,
Darleen.
Hi Darleen,
Glad that you liked the post. You’re right, it’s important to have a good strategy that helps you grow your blog. I’m not married to one particular strategy I always change it up according to the results that I am getting.
Let me know how it helps you out and you’re right, you need to see what works for your blog.
Thanks for taking the time to stop by and comment.
Have a great day 🙂
Susan
Ooh, love the video tip. I recently created a channel on YouTube and I thought that it will be impossible for me to find time to create videos but I need to schedule that in now along with the many other tings I do. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Alvern,
Congrats on starting your YouTube channel. You’re right, there’s always so much to do as a blogger.
Good luck with both your blog and your YouTube channel.
Thanks for taking the time to stop by and comment.
Have a great day 🙂
Susan
Hi Susan, this is a great post, as beginners are often overwhelmed and don’t really know what to do first. I also help people to start blogs and have shared this post with them as I think it gives great advice for those starting out.Too often we hear about those who are making thousands a month from blogging and this is not very helpful to those who are struggling to get traction with their new blogs – although I get it could be inspiration for them.
Anyway, well done, and I will be interested to see what other duties you manage to pack into your week, I will be looking into my YouTube after reading this as I have been putting it off so thanks for the nudge.
Hi Lynne,
Glad you enjoyed it and you’re right, it’s so easy to think that a blog will grow quickly.
It definitely takes time and effort to gain traction on a new blog.
Thanks for taking the time to stop by and comment.
Have a great day 🙂
