My blog post template



As some of you have a blog, I though I would share with you the method I am using to write my posts. One of the central tools that saves me a lot of time is a simple Word document template.



The idea is simple: I want to eliminate as far as possible the repetitive actions and have under my fingers all the possible elements I need from the first draft to the final product (in particular links to websites I use).

Here is my template (it has evolved over time and I keep playing with it):

TO DO
  • First draft
  • Insert headers (newsletter / Frequency)
  • List related articles with links
  • Create Amazon affiliate links
  • Edit / revise
  • Get photograph
  • Format photograph for web use

Title

Product Links
- Link directly to a specific product on Amazon using the product image
or text.
