When it comes to creating content<\/strong>, whether it’s for a blog or social channels, it’s inevitable to talk about the editorial plan, a fundamental tool to say the least for organizing and keeping the work that needs to be done under control<\/strong>.<\/p>\n But what does an editorial plan really consist of? And above all, how do you create it so that it is efficient and functional? Here are some useful and interesting tips<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t The PED is nothing more than a document that contains both the starting point, both the strategy and the arrival point of a blog, site or social network<\/strong> created in word, Google Docs, pages and which establishes the relationship between customer and company.<\/p>\n In the following paragraphs, attention will be focused on the editorial plan for a blog, but it should be emphasized that it is possible (indeed, super recommended) to create one also for a site and for social channels, with the intention of establishing the various steps and set goals to be achieved. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t An editorial plan is essential for those who want to make the blog an effective working tool for their marketing strategy<\/strong>, since it helps to leave nothing to chance and always have topics, deadlines and final goals at hand.<\/p>\n Planning and scheduling, therefore, are the two keywords at the base of a well-done editorial plan<\/strong>; designing it at the beginning of the work, therefore immediately after signing a contract, is preferable because it allows both the worker and the customer to have a clear understanding of the activities that will be carried out right from the start. Obviously this is a document that can be modified during construction<\/strong>, especially if the customer needs to advertise a particular product\/service or inform its users of a particular novelty. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t Creating an editorial plan for a blog may seem very simple, but it actually includes a series of actions (preliminary and otherwise) that allow you to have everything clear and under control from start to finish:<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t Before starting with the actual creation of the editorial plan it is good to start from a preliminary phase, that is the SWOT analysis<\/strong>, based on words and numbers.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t With the SWOT analysis, in fact, it is possible to identify the points of:<\/p>\n Of what? Of the company in question or, more specifically, of the project for which you want to create a blog. An analysis of this type is especially useful for the client<\/strong>, who will better understand the content of the strategy and will have the opportunity to suggest changes or new ideas. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/section>\r\n\t\t\t\t Closely related to the SWOT analysis are the goals to set and<\/strong> (hopefully) achieve<\/strong> with the creation of a blog. They can be of two types, i.e. short-term or long-term:<\/p>\n Defining goals from the outset is very important because every single blog content will be a tool to achieve them and, therefore, to push the user to take a specific action (purchase, subscribe to the newsletter, etc …). <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/section>\r\n\t\t\t\tWhat is an Editorial Plan and what is it for?\n<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
