2014 Printable Blog Planner

This is a pretty basic planner but if you print them out and keep it in your binder, it will be helpful!

In my blog planner:

• Goals ~ One of the main reasons of a planner is to plan ahead.
• Contacts ~ Keep track of your prime contacts.
• Link Parties ~ Keep track of where you link to most often.
• Logins ~ Keep track of logins and passwords.
• Analytics ~ Keep track of your monthly pageviews and your top referral sites.

 Blog Income & Expense Tracker w/ Taxes & Savings Calculations

One of my favorite tools is my income and expense tracker. The first tab helps me keep track of payments I am owed for commitments on my blog. The second tab is taxes and savings. This is where I can input the money I make then it automatically calculates what I need to put aside for taxes and what I need to save. The last tab keeps track of the money I spend on things like conferences and tools for blogging.

Editorial Calendar

This is pretty simple, it is an editorial calendar to keep track of what I am doing each day. It helps me plan to make sure that I don’t fall short of content as well!

The last thing I am sharing in this folder is my media kit. This is  slightly outdated but it gives a good example of my layout. I personally love having mine in Google docs because I can easily share it and edit it when needed.

Not sure how to make a copy of these Google Docs?

1. Click on “File”
2. Click on “Make Copy”
3. Save to your Google Docs then edit as needed
