The secret to being a badass blogger is getting all your I’s dotted and T’s” crossed. It’s about systematizing your process into an easy to follow set of steps that you can repeat again and again. That is what will make the process of creating new posts easy peazy.
My blog post process follows a 10-phase workflow, that includes all the bells and whistles required to attain ‘badass blogger’ status. This includes everything from brainstorming, creating, publishing, promoting and beyond.
To help you fine tune your blogging process and make sure you’ve got all your bases covered, I want to share with you the 10-phase process I swear by and give you my personal 80+ point blog post checklist.
First things first, here’s an outline of the 10-phase blog post process I use:
ONE: IDEA PHASE
This is when you brainstorm and gather ideas for topics, headlines, and keywords.
TWO: OUTLINE PHASE
This is when you create a rough outline for your post.
THREE: SEO PHASE
This is when you research and define keyword{s} and SEO elements for your post.
FOUR: WRITING PHASE
This is when you write up a rough draft of your post.
FIVE: VISUAL PHASE
This is when you create all of the visual content you will need for your post.
SIX: PUBLISHING PHASE
This is when you create and publish or schedule your post on your blogging platform.
SEVEN: PRE-PROMOTION PHASE
This is when you pre-promote your upcoming post with a tantalizing teaser on social media.
EIGHT: PROMOTION PHASE
This is when you promote your published post on different social platforms.
NINE: AFTER THE DUST SETTLES PHASE
This is when you repurpose and schedule later promotions to continue driving traffic to your post.
TEN: RINSE AND REPEAT PHASE
This is when you gear up to dive in and repeat the whole process for your next post.
In each one of these phases there is a list of things that need to be done to make sure you’re getting the most from your blogging efforts, which is where the ‘Badass Blog Post Checklist & Resource Guide’ come in.
To help you refine and streamline your blogging process I’ve created a 80+ point checklist with the exact steps of each of phase for you. It’s a easy to follow checklist that will walk you through the entire process of creating new blog posts. This blog post checklist also includes a resources section for each of the phases to help you nail the steps of the process.

Awesome list! The checklist is very handy.I have the most trouble with the pre-publish and after publishing phase. I sometimes forget to optimize my URL and often forget a social network or two! Good reminders.
