Every single blogger not only has his\/her own unique style of writing, but also a certain&nbsp;<em>process<\/em>&nbsp;of writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img src=\"https:\/\/nickiong.com\/app\/uploads\/2021\/02\/step-by-step-blog-process-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-294\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Since it\u2019s often hard to start the blogging process for many business owners or those who feel the need to write down their thoughts in one manner or another, I thought I would share my blogging process. Enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>1. The inspiration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When feeling inspired, I\u2019ll start a draft in the CMS of my website. Typically, I\u2019ll write the title down and may even jot a few sentences down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes, if I feel ready to get the whole post down \u2013 even if it\u2019s essentially word vomit \u2013 and I\u2019m driving (which is typically when inspiration strikes), I\u2019ll create a voice memo on my phone to transcribe later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>2. Actual writing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At any given time, I have tons of drafts going. On this particular blog, that number is currently 83. That means I have 83 drafts that are anywhere from basic ideas to half-written posts to full fledged posts that simply need a good edit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If I have the time and inspiration to write, I\u2019ll choose the one I\u2019m ready to do. Sometimes, that may change depending on news, time of year, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>3. Organizing thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, I get the general structure or flow of the post going. Is it going to be a numbered list? Broken up by headers? Or will it be straight paragraphs? Will there be photos that I need to find? Embedded videos?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(As a sidenote, if the post is a numbered list, I\u2019ll wait to add the number in the title as it really depends on how many items I come up with!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<script async=\"\" data-uid=\"0bb705444b\" src=\"https:\/\/nickiong.ck.page\/0bb705444b\/index.js\"><\/script>\n<br>\n\n\n\n<h2>4. Writing and restructuring<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Often, as I\u2019m writing, I think of a better way to organize a post. Maybe I change the one with straight paragraphs to have a little more formatting so it\u2019s easier to read. Perhaps I take the introduction and move it down to the bottom because it makes more sense as a conclusion.&nbsp;More often than not, I\u2019ll remove sentences or phrases that at first seemed witty or sections that don\u2019t make as much sense anymore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This restructuring phase also opens up the possibility for more posts. As I write, I watch the number of words I have and when that number starts going over, say, 750 words, I\u2019ll start thinking about breaking up the post into multiple ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>5. Finding a photo<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Only after I finish a post do I go back in and add a photo that speaks to the post. While there are a ton of stock photography sites out there that you have to pay for, there are also some&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/partner.canva.com\/c\/1396104\/619765\/10068\">free and cheap photo options<\/a>&nbsp;as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>6. Final Read in Preview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Using WordPress, I use the preview option to read the final version of my post. Many times, seeing the draft in its final form with design and formatting can change the way I feel about the post. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At this point, I\u2019ll switch back and forth between preview and draft until I\u2019ve perfected the post to my liking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>7. Publish!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Hold your breath and hit publish!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>8. Share<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019re not done yet! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most important pieces of the puzzle is to share your blogpost. I go through the same steps each time by sharing on all of my business pages (Facebook, Twitter, and Google Plus) as well as my personal Twitter and Facebook accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>And there you have it!
