How to Use Your Smartphone as a Blogging Tool

Having a Smartphone is like carrying the world in your pocket.

You can have internet access anytime, anywhere and process your data in as many ways as you can count to a million.]

If you own a blog, why wait to open your desktop or laptop to complete the pending assignments?

Get it done through your Smartphone.

The Apps

The apps available on the Smartphone are, to say in short, heavenly.

In all the Smartphones, ranging from basic to the most advanced, Facebook, Twitter and WordPress are easily loaded applications.

There are loads of other apps, free or paid, that you can make use of as well.

If you are writing blog posts on your Smartphone, you can use an HTML editor, Evernote (to save blog posts for later), notes apps, or more.

Image editors, notepads and voice recorders are also a few other popular apps.

Editing and replying to posts

When your written posts are out for people to read and comment on, a slight error can be highly embarrassing.

And what if somebody points out the error politely, and it remains on your blog until you can get back to it?

You can’t afford to let that happen.

Your Smartphone gives you the option to edit your blog on the move with the help of apps like WordPress.

You can also preview any content before publishing it.

While you are on the move, there may be several responses to your blog, posted by readers. You may be losing valuable time by waiting to send your responses till you get access to the computer.

If you want more people to read and comment on your work, you have to be quick and responsive.

You can also moderate posts on the move.

Make the most of your travelling time this way.

Using the WordPress app on my phone is one of my favorite things to do when traveling by train, car (as a passenger), or waiting for a movie to start.

A portable notebook

A sudden thought or inspiration may need to be written down; jot it down on your Smartphone.

Use your Smartphone as a notebook to get all those ideas stored in the right place; your memory may often fail you.

You can either email the notes or store them in the mobile app Evernote.

Promotion of the blog

Simply checking your blog from time to time will not help you promote it.

You need to study the behavior of your audience carefully.

Check if a particular time of the day is busy for your blog.

This is the time you need to be active because you will be able to generate the best responses.

You can simultaneously promote the contents you choose to promote, and reply to posts of readers, without having a computer in front of you.

A Smartphone is not just a mobile phone but a versatile tool in the hands of the right user.

Be smart and make your Smartphone work wonders for you.
