For people who use WordPress, this applies to you. If you are someone who updates their blog on a scheduled timer, like once a day, twice a week, or anything like that, well what happens when you go on vacation? What if your power goes out for a couple of days unexpectedly? Well here’s a way to protect yourself from that happening. You should write all your posts a few days in advance. How many days, that’s up to you. When you write them, go to the right side of the page and find something that says “Publish immediately Edit” Click on the underlined blue ‘Edit’ and change it to the day you want it to be posted. You should have everything written in advance, so it will automatically post it at the time you tell it to. This way, if any emergency happens without you expecting it to, your blog can still update by itself.

If you are going to be gone for a while, like a week, you can still keep your blog updated regularly. If you want it to post once a day while you are gone, all you have to do is write 7 articles and have them post automatically while you are gone. This way when you go on vacations, your blog viewers will still get updated.

If you have a scheduled update, but an event so important that you have to update your blog immediately happens. You can schedule all your posts for a day later and post about that event on the day. All you have to do is go look at your posts and edit the publish time. An example for when you would do this would be if Microsoft came out with this software that helps you blog and you thought was just simply amazing and you had to post about it. While all the other blogs are telling their blog readers about it the second it comes out, you don’t want to tell your blog readers a few days later.
