I have been asked by many people how I managed to post a blog post on Friday when I was at a Wedding of a friend (Congratulations to Lian and Bobby!) Well the fact of the matter is that although the post was published on Friday it could have been written at any time.
I generally use the Scheduled posts facility in WordPress to publish the posts when I want them to be published which is not necessarily when I write them.
Why would I not want to publish when I write them? Well for various reasons, generally I will write a whole bunch of posts in one go and then schedule them to be published over the coming days to ensure that there is a constant feed of content to the live site, rather than a big chunk and then nothing for weeks followed by a big chunk again.
Having a constant stream of regularly posted content is better for Search Engines (SEO) especially for Google. There is a chance that Google would see a mass of published content as being SPAM rather than being genuine content if it did not fit within the pattern of posting for that site.
