Scheduling Future Articles in WordPress
Posted on May 5th, 2008
Does your schedule vary so that some weeks you have extra time to write articles, while other weeks slip by? Are there other times when your article is due so it is on schedule, but you are out of ideas?
Unless you are on a strict schedule, there can be times when you just do not have the time or the ideas to write good articles. During the week I keep adding onto the list of ideas for articles.
Then I leave those ideas build until one of them just hits me with enough content to write that article. Once that is done, I will look at the list of ideas to see if any others can be written then.
Writing multiple articles in one day does not mean you have to publish them on your blog that same day. When entering them into your blog, there is an option in WordPress to set the publishing date and time.
The great thing about that is the article will not show up until that date and time arrives. I have tested this several times and found that it works so well, that when I saw a notice in email of an article had been posted, I had forgotten that I wrote it the previous week. 
What a relief that was! Just when I was rushing to get the next article done, one showed up on time. So the next time you have the urge to write more than one article at a time, publish one and schedule the others for a future date.
Not only is that a time saver, but the search engines will only see the article on its scheduled date and will stay on its own schedule of indexing your blog.

Posted on December 21st, 2007
Plans change, no matter how much you try staying on a schedule. have been in the Freedom foreclosure Prevention Services corporate office in Arizona for the last 3 weeks. It is so busy here that I have not had time to write you each week as planned.
While waiting to board the plane last night to go home, something went wrong with the airplane. While the problem was not disclosed, the plane was replaced - with a smaller one.
An announcement was made, asking for volunteers to wait for another flight. Since my luggage was already being put on this plane heading to my intended destination, I had a strange feeling that I was not supposed to get on that plane.
