Schedule Blog Posts\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

One of WordPress\u2019 features is \u2018Scheduling\u2019. This nifty feature allows you to schedule posts and pages to go out at dates and times, which makes it perfect for arranging posts to update to your website while you aren\u2019t in the office.<\/p>\n

Here at Fifteen, our SEO clients will have blog posts scheduled over their Christmas breaks to keep the website fresh with content, and to keep traffic visiting the site, encouraging return users and shares online and across socials to keep the business moving.<\/p>\n

Schedule Social Activity<\/strong><\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re a B2B business, scheduling social activity over the Christmas break will help keep your socials active, and continue to drive traffic to your website. Schedule your socials inline with your new blogs, schedule a \u2018Merry Christmas\u2019 and \u2018Happy New Year\u2019 message to your followers and customers as well!<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re B2C the chances are, you\u2019ll be back to work from Boxing Day dealing with customer queries about products purchased over Christmas, while you\u2019ll have your own strategies in place with dealing with these, scheduling social posts will help ease the pressure and take the strain off remembering to post those little updates reminding people that you are on hand to answer questions and queries!<\/p>\n

You don\u2019t want to miss out on a business opportunity, any enquiries that come through take some time out to speak with the potential client and note down important information, and tell them that you will send them relevant information when your back in the office. This shows the client that you are interested in their query, and have taken time out to speak to them. Showing great Customer Service!<\/p>\n
