How To: Juggle Blog With School Work
Say you love to blog on technology but are struggling with time and content idea because you have school every day and are not able to get rid of project works and studies which are hanging heavy over your head. Getting spare time to update your blog appears
impossible. Still, somehow you manage to write a blog post twice a week before going to bed. But when do you write these articles? When do you think up the subject you are to write on? And when and how will you publicize your blog post? You need more time on Facebook and Twitter to do that and this sure is gonna eat up into your precious study time which is, of course, more important than blogging. This must be making you sometimes just hate school if it does not allow you to update your blog for weeks!
Hey, here’s an idea! Why not use your school to generate both content and traffic for your blog! But make sure you do everything in a manner which ensures that your studies is first priority and blogging last, because education will help you become a successful blogger but blogging might not help you become a good student!

How to Get Blog Content Idea?
School Library
How long has it been since you last visited your school library? If you are a blogger then it does not matter whether you love to write… you should be more a reading enthusiast than a writing one. Read up all those old, new or any book you can lay your hands on. It does not matter if you love Shakespeare and you blog about iphone and android technology. Even Shakespeare’s philosophies can help you with an idea of a hot blog post about technology.
Like-minded Friends
Of the many friends you interact with each day, I am sure that at least one out of 10 shares your interest in technology. Why not increase this ratio? Make more like-minded friends and improve your knowledge on latest tech updates, news and information. You can find some really good resources to make a blog post.

Expand Your Network
Don’t only make friends with those who like what you like. Make friends with everyone you can. Your classmates come first because you can interact with them more often. Then come your seniors because they are more mature than you. Then, your juniors because you can make them see your points. And lastly, make good standing with your teachers… try to talk regularly with a teacher whom you think is best to give you advice on technology and science. It could be your physics teacher or your computer science teacher. Mention their names while writing a blog post and give them credit for your work and show them your work.

How to Generate Blog Traffic?
By Word of Mouth
Talk about your blog everyday to more and more people but don’t make it sound boring. Tell how it would be useful for them to read your blog post, share how you do that. And help others. Be equipped with a pen and paper to write your blog URL whenever someone asks to share.
Share Email ids
Share your email ids and take others’. Mail them at least once a week, create good relations and ask your friends to give feedback and comments on your articles.
SMS
We didn’t have mobile phones 20 years back, but now most school goers above 13 years have it. Though, most schools don’t allow phones you can still note down the numbers of your friends to contact them later. Update your friends through text messages sharing the URL of your new blog post. Inform them about the topic you wrote, all by way of SMS texts. This is another way of making blog subscribers, via sms texts. Cool ha?

How to Write a Blog Post in School?
What if you get a stunning blog post idea while in school? Carry a diary or a rough book with you all the time or simply use a sheet of paper. If you have a sudden brainwave, write down a heading and put down your idea in points. Write every point you can and when you get home, copy it on a word file and expand the points into an article. Once, your main points and title of a blog post are ready, you just need to compile it. It works well for me.
Free Periods
If you have nothing meaningful to do except chatting or playing a sport you don’t like, why don’t you do something which you like? Write, write and write. That’s the one best way to utilize those free periods, thanks to that teacher who didn’t turn up today.

Give Up Blogging For Your Own Good
There is no exception when studies are involved. Write a post that you won’t be able to update your blog for some time so that your readers are aware of your unavailability. I am reiterating the fact that blogs are not more important than studies. You can blog whole of your life but you cannot miss out on this golden period for studies. If you are good in any particular subject then who knows, tomorrow you could be best chemistry blogger or best business management blogger. Schools are to sharpen your mind and develop your skills. Blogs are to show how much you can do it. So if blogging is interfering with your studies, give it up.
