Start Blogging in 2023 Part 2: Planning Your Blog’s Content

Twenty Twenty-Three is just around the corner--have you set your New Year's Resolutions yet?

Why not start that blog you've always dreamed about?

If this sounds interesting, please join us for the second of a two-part series. This will be an interactive writer's workshop to help you get started blogging in 2023--and keep writing from January to December and beyond.

What to expect from Part Two

• Brainstorm topics and create a list from which you can pull when you need inspiration in 2023
• Explore different content types and decide what is right for you
• Identify top level categories, sub-categories, and the more granular tags
• Explore content design and utilize patterns to make your blog posts visually appealing

What was covered in Part One

• Explore your reasons for wanting to blog, your blockers to getting started, and collaboratively brainstorm strategies in a group-setting
• Define your vision and the impact you want to have--on yourself, on your readers, and on the world
• Set goals and milestones in a group setting for your blog
• Consider your calls to action and how you will evaluate if you are meeting your milestones
• Consider and describe your niche and the audience you intend to reach
• Decide what's in a name -- would a blog by another name be as widely read?

This interactive writing session will be the second in a two-part planning series to help you get started blogging on January 1st.

You are welcome to attend either or both sessions; they are related to each other, but do not rely on the other to understand the content.

Expect to share your ideas and hear the ideas of others! While we won't cover setting up a blog in WordPress, we will provide resources from learn.wordpress.org to help you get setup and started with a WordPress installation on a host of your choice.
