Posting to Your Blog Using Email

This post is done using HTML formatting in my email client and emailed directly to Blogger to save time posting. If you have not tried this feature, you may want to enable it in the control panel and check it out.

What I have found is that it may actually be easier to do posting in this manner as Blogger does not yet have an automatic future blog publishing feature. The only thing to watch out for is line breaks. Push your enter key twice to make it look nice in your email and Blogger will interpret that as lots of extra spaces on your post.

Emailing Your Posts To Your Blog Text Version

Blogger has great features and I like the blog platform better than most,
but one this I wish they had is auto-publishing.

In WordPress and Typepad you can set a post to publish at a date in the
future which is a very nice feature for a professional blogger such as
myself. I have decided to do several tests of the Blogger system that you
can review online using the “mail to your blog” feature in an effort to be
able to make blogging easier. This post I have sent to Blogger via email and
formatted my message as plain text. Take a careful look and see if you see
any flaws in font and spacing based on our other posts.

My next post will be sent as an html emailed post so we can review the
difference. I will also be clocking the time it takes Blogger to post my
emailed blog. Right now I am finishing my post and it is 6:55 AM Eastern
Time.

The Tangible Benefits of Blogging

Click our post title now and subscribe to our e-newsletter. I am just a few days away from publishing my new white paper “The Tangible Benefits of Blogging”. This nine page PDF is a must read for any website owner. I have researched some case studies for over two years, set up this blog particularly for additional research and even evaluated the impact of blogging on organic search engine placement.

This is one great white paper! Right up there with our popular white paper evaluating Google AdWords and Yahoo Sponsored Search. In our newest white paper, you will walk away with hard documented research evaluating traffic, site stickiness, web visibility and much more.

After I publish the white paper, I will be focusing on my one blog Web-World Watch and posting less frequently here. I have personally found that it is hard to keep up with two blogs and have a thriving web business. So please allow me to point you to my main blog for more information.

I’m sure that I will test things out periodically on this blog just for blogging, but Web-World Watch is my top trafficked blog and where the thrust of my efforts are posted. I invite you to visit and book mark Web-World Watch.

Links to Online Blogging for Search Engines

You may be interesting in reviewing our PowerPoint presentation (now made into a PDF) of our speech yesterday at the Capital PC Users Group in Washington DC.

This presentation is a preview of our white paper “The Tangible Benefits of Blogging” that will be published in our e-newsletter in early October.

I think that you will find the case studies and tips on how to be an effective blogger and how to blog for search engine placement interesting and helpful.
