Wordpress Tip: Use the Post Timestamp

Blogging can be a lot of fun. Sometimes it is so much fun you find yourself overloaded with ideas for posts. On the rare occasion this has happened to me, I have been reluctant to post because I didn’t want to flood the blog with new posts that would bury the previous post I just wrote a few minutes before.
–Of course most of the time you may be begging for ideas, but there are times when the posts seem to pour in–
Wordpress has an excellent feature that allows you to write a post now and have it automatically appear at any given hour or time—even years in the future!
When writing your next post, look over to the right for a series of expandable options. The bottommost (should be) is the Post Timestamp. Expand it and you should see the picture to the left here.
Checkmark the ‘Edit Timestamp’ and set the time/date. When you publish your post it will automatically post at the time you give it. Give it a try!
If I have a few posts ready, I like to space out my posts 3-6 hours. This gives earlier posts a chance to be seen before being buried. I don’t have to worry about that on this website yet since it isn’t popular
but it is certainly helpful for blogs with some traffic!
