This weeks cool tool is CoSchedule. It’s a WordPress plugin that will help you keep on top of blogging tasks, be consistent with your blog posts and help you share social updates when you post.
Being consistent with blogging sends out some powerful signals to readers:
- They will trust you. If you blog on a regular basis the chances are you have good time management skills and are able to sustain interest over a long period of time. These are the sorts of qualities people look for in those they do business with.
- You know your stuff – You are able to blog on a regular basis about your topic, you must know a lot about it. One of the nice things about blogging is that the more you do it the more of an expert you become. Good blogging requires research and experience in the area you are writing about.
There are other clear benefits to consistency too:
Readers will begin to re-visit your blog. If you blog regularly people will check in with your blog, Facebook page or Twitter account on a regular basis. They will also be more likely to subscribe to your RSS feed or emails.
More posts. Any established blogger will tell you that most of their traffic comes from Google. The more posts you write the more likely you are to appear in multiple Google searches.
