DIY: Blogger Planner

Now that my blog has been growing, I wanted to create a blogger planner that caters to my needs.  I have a seen a few cool blogging planners on the web but either they just have too many things I do not need or too little things I would like to have.  When that happens I always tend to go out and do it myself so I know that I will be happy with the product.

(Front)  
I purchased this journal from the Navy Exchange for under $5.00.

(Back)
I just love the color and design of the book.  It was perfect.

(Inside)  
As you can see, this journal is very spacious!

Now to what I did.  Each month as a total of eight pages.

Page 1
In the blank space next to the flower and "2012", just enter the name of that month then enter the dates into the calendar below.  Along with keeping track of the dates, this pages helps with any expenses and income.

Page 2
With the Website Analytics, you can now see if your blog and other social networks are growing in followers or not and maybe think of ways to improve them.  Also included on this page are PR Contacts for companies you are in current contact with.

Page 3-7
Next to the empty space after "Week of" and the flower, enter the dates of that week so you now have a weekly view of your blog and could write down posts you want to post live, reminders, etc.

Page 8 
The last page of each months are any reminders, suggestions, and miscellaneous things I need to jot down.

What are your thoughts?

Thanks for reading,

    1. LOL. Yes, actually. I tried to make one using a similar notebook but it was too much so I created a much simpler log. I'll post it up soon.
