When I first started blogging, I was always trying to find a more efficient way to write blog posts.

Coming up with ideas, outlining, writing, and editing always felt like such a long process in the end.

Eventually, I figured out a few techniques that make my life so much easier, and today, I’m sharing exactly how I batch-create content for my blog so you can too!

How to Batch Write Blog Posts

Batch-creating content is how I cut down on writing time by a LOT.

Instead of writing one post from start to finish, you tackle similar tasks in bulk: brainstorming multiple topics at once, outlining multiple posts at once, writing, and then editing everything together.

This method saves me so much time and keeps me productive!

Let’s break it down step by step!

Batch Brainstorming Blog Post Ideas & Titles

Writing always starts with an idea, and that's exactly what we're after!

The first step to this method is brainstorming blog post ideas/titles.

I like to set some time aside to ask myself one question: Does my audience have any questions?

Then, I think of those questions and write down blog post ideas that would give them a clear answer.

After I have the ideas, I reword them to sound more clickable and interesting.

I usually do this until I have about 10-20 new blog post ideas to work with!

Blog Post Structure

One of my biggest mistakes early on was writing without an outline.

This meant I had messy, unorganized posts that took a lot longer to edit.

Now, I always have a structure before I start writing, and it’s helpedmey lay out my blog posts so much faster!

Here’s how I lay out my blog posts.

• Introduction. Interest the reader by addressing their pain points, then introduce the main topic.

• Break your content into sections with headers. This keeps the post organized and easy to read.

• Use bullet points or subheadings to break things up. Nobody likes reading walls of uninterrupted words.

• Conclusion with a call to action. Summarize the post and encourage readers to take the next step (e.x. leave a comment, sign up for a freebie, or check out a related post).

Because I already have an outline for my posts, writing is 10 times easier.

It also helps me prevent writer's block since I'm never staring at a blank page, wondering where to start.

Writing Your Blog Posts in Batches

Now that you have your blog post topics and outlines ready, it’s time to actually write!

Everyone has their own writing method, and the fun part is that you can batch-create your blog posts in different ways, depending on what works best for you.

Here are three different options depending on your preferences.

1. Writing Freehand

If you're a fast writer, you might like sitting down and typing out your blog post from start to finish.

But if you want to be efficient, you need to focus on getting the words out without worrying about editing.

I like to set a timer (sometimes using the Pomodoro technique) and just write as much as I can in one sitting.

Once the draft is done, I come back later to clean it up.

2. Using Your Voice to Write

If you think better by speaking aloud, try using the transcribing feature (if it's available) on whatever device you use to write blog posts.

I have aMacc, so there's a little button on my keyboard I can use that starts transcribing as soon as I click it.

Then, I just let myself talk and get all of the information out and onto paper.

After that, you can edit the transcription into a finished blog post.

This is great if you struggle with typing quickly but have no problem speaking your thoughts.

3. Using AI to Write Your Draft

AI tools like ChatGPT can help speed up the writing process by generating rough drafts or brainstorming sections for you.

I don’t recommend relying on AI to write entire blog posts, but it can be a great way to get past writer’s block or fill in gaps in your content.

I like to think of AI as a helper, not a replacement for your writing.

Efficient Final Editing

Once your blog post is written, the last thing to do is edit!

But instead of you yourself going through every little mistake, I use Grammarly to speed up the process.

I've been doing this since the beginning, and it has saved me so much time and energy.

I run every blog post through Grammarly before finalizing it.
