I will have someone else write short articles to distribute for links, but all my blog posts and guest posts, I personally write myself. actually I agree.

I will break down one aspects of my writing project and delegate a few 300-500 word posts. This works for "fleshing" out content on my clients sites for generic topics. Of course I put my spin on it and edit it, rarely do they come back ready to use. For $10 or so I can save myself 2-3 hours of writing and research time. This strategy doesn't work as well for this style blog, but is great for local business blog clients of mine.

I run two at the moment but had up to four - it simply didn't work out. I was stretching myself too thin and the content started to slump. Sometimes you gotta bite the bullet and just hunker down on one or two blogs that are going to be your success. Then, afterward, pick up the pace on the others :) Being able to control your schedule is really important when you’re running multiple blogs.

I never tried timing myself. Once i get started it is usually hard for me to stop. Sometimes i will write for 30-45 minutes, and sometimes 2-3 hours. Cool tip joseph Thanks for sharing.

I currently manage content on 7 blogs for two different clients. I enjoy the subject matter, but find days where I have a hard time finding my writers groove. BTW: I have also been using a 90 min on 30-60min off writing/working schedule. It is based on some newer scientific research that indicates our brain has a hard time focusing on tasks much longer than 90 minutes. It has worked pretty well when I do it. I set an egg timer and go, stay focused and ignore all distractions for that amount of time. Having friends and family help in your blog building is brilliants.
