Multiple Blogs – How to Manage Them All

Sunday, October 18th, 2009

Managing multiple blogs is not easy. It can be very time consuming, draining, and even confusing. If you’re like me, and you run several blogs, you might find it difficult to keep everything under control. However, there are ways you can make your life easier. Here are six tips to help you manage multiple blogs.

1. Set up a schedule. Designate each blog to a specific day of the week. For example, use Mondays to handle your insurance and real estate blogs. Make Tuesdays your day to handle your personal and business blogs. Use Wednesdays to manage and answer guest comments. And so forth and so on.

2. Start Early. Work on your blogs as early in the day as possible. Don’t procrastinate until the last minute unless you have a very good reason for doing so. You’ll be surprised how refreshing it can be to have your work done and out the way by noon.

3. Keep your posts short. There’s no reason you have to write a thousand word blog post. Keep them short and to the point. Your posts don’t need to be any longer than 400-500 words. An ideal length is about 300 words.

4. Utilize video. Videos can do so much for your blogs. Find a relevant video, post it up and write a couple of lines of commentary. Videos not only make it easier for you, but also help keep your audience engaged.

5. Invite guest bloggers. If you’ve noticed some of your guests leaving good comments, why not invite them to write a post or two for your blog? Or just look around for other bloggers in your niche and ask if they wouldn’t mind submitting to your site. Just try not to seem desperate.

6. Utilize articles. Article marketing is very popular these days. With so many article submission sites, there’s no reason you should be stumped for material for your blog. Find a good article, give credit to the author and write a couple of lines of commentary.

Trying to manage several blogs and websites can be a daunting and tiring task. But with a little organization and flexibility, you’ll find that it can be easy and beneficial.
