Schedule a Blog Post for Later

Scheduling lets you write several articles in one sitting and release them over days or weeks without logging in on each publish day.

Before you schedule

Complete the details readers and search engines need: URL slug, category, author, keywords, canonical link when applicable and the SEO fields.

Steps

1. Go to Sites > Blog and open the blog.
2. Click New Post and write the article.
3. Click Continue in the upper right.
4. Fill in the publishing details.
5. Select Schedule.
6. Pick a date, then choose the hour, minute and AM or PM.
7. Click Schedule in the upper right to confirm.

Confirm it worked

Return to the post list. The article shows a Scheduled status with its release time. No manual action is required on the day; it goes live by itself.

Changing your mind

Reopen the post to adjust the date, or save it as Draft if you want to hold it back for more edits.

Good to know: Times follow your account's time zone, so check it in your business profile before planning a launch around a specific hour.
