Chris Garrett uses mindmaps - one of my favorite tools - for expanding on topics for blog posts. In addition to his computer, he carries around a notebook (Moleskin) to jot down ideas.
He recommends using an editorial calendar for organizing content. Quality definitely wins over quantity. Find the best time to post to reach your audience.
He has several posts in draft that he calls "panic posts" for those occasions when life happens and you just can't get a post published.
Batch your tasks. Determine how many hours you can spend a week and divide it between writing blog posts, promotional tasks for your site and reading posts.
Great info! Thanks Chris.
