GoogleDocs is a great tool for writing and tracking blog content. I have used a lot of strategies to write blog posts. I\u2019d like to share some of these methods so you can learn from them.<\/p>\nGoogleDocs is a great tool for writing and tracking blog content. I have used a lot of strategies to write blog posts.

Methods to write blog posts:<\/p>\n
-Typepad\/Wordpress<\/strong><\/p>\n The disadvantage of this method is that you end up with a lot of drafts and it obscures your posted content (on the back-end). I\u2019ve generally found it best to write my blog content outside of the blogging platform and then copy and paste when the content is ready. There are exceptions to that rule.<\/p>\n -Notepad<\/strong><\/p>\n This is one of my favorite tools for creating web content. It is a simplified form of content without any of the underlying code that comes from a Word document. The disadvantage is that line breaks are sometimes an issue. You may end up having to go through your post and change the line breaks manually. One disadvantage is that Notepad does not have spell-check. And I don’t know about you, but I occasionally spell words incorrectly.<\/p>\n -Microsoft Word<\/strong><\/p>\n Word is a great tool for writing any kind of document, but you often run into issues when transferring to a web publishing tool. Word has a lot of underlying code that can be misinterpreted when published on the web. For an example of this, simply copy and paste a document into your blogging platform and then click the html button. You will see all sorts of strange code. (Not good.) When you actually view the published web page, you may see strange characters.<\/p>\n
