Short on time? Here are 9 easy tips on how to write a blog post in just 30 minutes or less! Consider your blog post ready to go!

Are you short on time? Do you need write a blog post worthy of being published before you head out the door today or prepared for your timed publish date?

The following 9 tips will help you accomplish just that, ensuring that you will be satisfied with what you have produced. This way you can step out the door knowing that you have hit your deadline or better yet, given yourself some extra free time.

1. Have a wonderful attention stealing headline.

Grasp the reader right from the beginning; hold them there. You have something to tell them and you want them to stay and read right through to the end.

2. Include a tantalizing opener. BE BOLD!

You can come back at the end to write this so it doesn’t end up eating too much of your time.

3. Be clear and concise about your topic.

Don’t use any of that fluff; it will waste your time and energy. You can do some research and brain storm beforehand, for example I read this blog post first before writing mine. You want to tell people what you want them to know now and your readers will make it to the end of your post.

4. Add a photo, something eye catching and relatable.

Everyone enjoys a direct and relevant image. If you have your own that is even better. Everyone appreciates the personal touch.

5. No distractions.

Turn off your Wi-Fi, (Yes, I’m serious) set your phone to silent and set a timer of any kind. This will push you into writing at a pace that will help you finish what you need to, on time no less.

6. Speed type.

This method has proven to work for me a plethora of times. From essays to work emails, I go back and do all the editing at the end. Save all the spell check, grammar updates, word changes, hyperlinks, references and all those minor details for the finale.

7. Don’t forget to add your own personal flare.

This is where you get to shine! Write a blog post with passion, share a piece of yourself and your love. I always try to drop a little something here to inspire others in one way or another.

8. Always double check your work.

Speed read it over, do it twice or thrice for good measure. This will get rid of those small pesky mistakes that have been overlooked.

9. Remember to share on social media sites.

Don’t forget to reach your viewers! Hit that share button. They can’t love your words if they don’t know how to find them.

Alright, you are now ready to write a blog post of your own in a matter of minutes.
