This is a response to several inquiries I’ve had recently about how I format and publish on Steemit. I’ve developed some workflow systems that people may find valuable.

In this video I show you:

  • How I use Evernote to jot down ideas on the fly.
  • How I use Google Docs to write because of the auto-save and ease of use.
  • The “Add-ons” feature that allows you to transfer a Google doc to a WordPress draft and retain formatting.
  • How I let WordPress generate the HTML format needed for Steemit.
  • How and Why I’m building two blogs at the same time, without doing twice the work.
One thing I forgot to mention in the video is that WordPress is also a great place to host the photos for your Steemit articles. If anyone clicks on an image in my Steemit posts, they are able to view the full-sized hi-res photo from my WordPress. It’s seamless, so the viewer never knows it, but they actually are viewing my WordPress site and helping my SEO for LiveAllYourLife.com

A good example of this is found in my Waterfall Tour post that you can see here. Lot’s of photos and videos that were all embedded easily by using WordPress to do the work for me.

You can view the example post from the video HERE.

I thought I'd throw in a little extra formatting on this post just to show you. WordPress makes this so easy. The photo above is me, sitting on a cliff over the Columbia River. If you click on the image you'll be able to view the full sized version and check out how high I really am by noticing how small the railroad tunnel looks below.

That page divider is simply a centered image. You can google "page dividers" and search images for tons more like it. Save it to your WordPress media and drop them into your posts for a nice formatting touch.

If you have better tools or time-saving hacks for posting to Steemit, formatting, or building an audience I’d love to hear from you!
