7. Blog post planner

I personally don’t use this type of planner spread because I write my posts directly in WordPress and outline them before I start writing and adding images. I’ve tried to use it, but it just didn’t work out for me. Like I said, I write key point and keywords directly in new WordPress post and than go from that. It works for me, maybe it doesn’t work for you.
