The ultimate blog post checklist
Before you publish your next blog post, check off everything on this list. Trust me; it’ll save you a lot of headaches in the long run! Remember to save this article for future reference.
- [ ] Read through your article for grammar mistakes. Nothing screams “unprofessional” like a blog post full of typos! Use spell check or Grammarly to help catch any errors you may have missed.
- [ ] Make sure your article is a good mix of text and images. Too much text can be overwhelming for readers, and not enough photos can make your post look dull. Try to find a balance that works for your particular article.
- [ ] Check your facts! Nothing will make you look worse than an article full of inaccurate information. Always double-check your sources before including anything in your blog post.

- [ ] Optimize your blog post for SEO. Use keyword research to determine which keywords to target, and then use those keywords throughout your article (in the title, in the meta description, in the body text, etc.)
- [ ] Add internal links to other articles on your blog. This will help keep readers on your site longer, and it can also help with your SEO.
- [ ] Add social media share buttons to your blog post. This will make it easy for readers to share your content on their favorite social media platforms.
