Some of my friends on steemit have been wondering and have asked why I am not as active as I used to be on my blog. The response is this. Apart from the fact that I only like to put up quality posts, I am now managing two blogs, @maryfavour and @redfishpillar, which is not an easy thing to do.
My Personal Blog, @maryfavour
Unlike before when I had just this blog, it was easy for me to focus on it alone. I was able to do many things like food vlogs, blog about health, blockchain fintech startups & cryptocurrency matters, personal experience on steemit etc.
My Steemit Pet Project Blog, @redfishpillar
Since the formal launch of @redfishpillar project, in the introduce yourself post, on the 5th of August, 2017, it's been a little challenging for me to manage both blogs. For that reason, I'm working on a plan to be posting every other day on both blogs. Hope it works well!

So, my posting schedule (tentative) will look something like this
- Sunday : Mission To Minnow (MTM) Challenge post in @redfishpillar. See last update for challenge #3 (Sunday, 10th of September, 2017) here.
- Monday: Any Inspirational post, shout out to my fans and music in @maryfavour
- Tuesday: My Steemit experiences in @maryfavour
- Wednesday: Ask me anything (about steemit) Wednesday, AMAWED , in @redfishpillar. Check out last Wednesday's episode from this post.
- Thursday: Public health matters in @maryfavour. I'm considering using dsound for this.
- Friday: Know Your Steemit Witnesses (KYSW) & their projects (my initiative) in @redfishpillar
- Saturday: Food blog/vlog in @maryfavour . Hope to use dtube to achieve this.
Note: I'll consistently work on this schedule and edit it until I'm able to come up with something feasible.
Timing Too Is Important
I watched a youtube video by @jerrybanfield yesterday, which opened my eyes to where I can figure out the best posting times for me on steemit, based on the activity of my followers/fans/team members . This is so important now, especially as school is about to begin. Generally, on any social medial platform (including steemit), good timing to publish your content is key. Certainly, you wouldn't want to post a content when no one has the time to read. Pay close attention to that. The highest number of organic votes will come in at about the time you find best for posting, from what is seen on steem activity, an application created by @jga. Find your own steem activity from here.
I understand that there are bots, like @steemvoter, that helps with content curation for favorite authors. Mine has been on pause mode for about a week, so as to give time to my voting power to recover and for some other reasons.
The customized lovely divider was designed for me by @outhori5ed . Source for the generic footer is from here.
Do you have a posting/publishing schedule? Is there a desktop app available that can help a Steemian schedule his/her posts? Please, leave me your comments in the reply section below. I would really love to see and respond to them as soon as I can.
Thank you for sharing my tool. Very good post. Regards
Wow! This app you created, @jga, is going to be a game changer for me. Facebook analytics helped me understand when to to post on my fan pages. Now, you've built this great app on the steemit blockchain. It's an app that I'll surely continue to use. Many thanks!!!
Quite a tough schedule to stick to @maryfavour.
I hope somewhere along the line there would be an eating-sumptuous-delicacy schedule and resting schedule, just to compliment the writing schedule? Lolz...
Would watch out for your blogs. Thanks for sharing.
I appreciate your comment and the infusion of humor into it. As if you knew what I was thinking about resting schedule . Mondays is when I hope to set aside for that, but we'll see how it goes.
That quite and interesting one too. Lol! Cheers.
I understand it might be very demanding, but please do make sure you take out time to rest too. Well done Ma
Thank you so much, Tobi, for your piece of advice and concern.I really appreciate it. Like I stated in my response to @blazing's comment, I will definitely look into taking at least a day off. Cheers.
okay Ma
thanks for sharing this with us @maryfavour. we will sure try to keep up with you.
You are welcome, @cwen! It would be my pleasure for you to keep up with me. Cheers.
You are really hardworking ma,i know you will reap in plenty.
My arms are crossed,keep feeding us with your great contents
Thanks for the complement, @jeaniepearl! The hardwork on steemit, though rewarding, is becoming stressful . Hopefully, I'll find someone soon, whom I can entrust with the posting key for @redfishpillar or find a desktop app for scheduling my weekly posts. Cheers.
Its truely tiresome but even more work for the newbies.
There is always a way out,solution will come
Goodluck ma
Handling 3 Accounts drains me, @oluwoleolaide is my getaway where i can post my thoughts and whatever i encounter during the week while the other two i will always be cautious as those who assigned one of them to me can't be messed with😓
That feeling of being drained is what I experience at the moment. It is the reason why some times, I just look away from posting, so that I can focus on other important aspects of life. Hmm..., @steem-lagos, you handle 3 accounts? Oh my goodness! I have a third account on healthcare, but dare not perform any activity on it, besides, the formal introduce yourself post and monthly reports/updates. Well done!!!
Wow!!! Managing one at the moment seems draining not to talk of two...well done!!!!
Hmm...you can say that again, @tolarnee. Thanks for your comment. Steem on!
I duff for you ma..... I included most of this things in my recent post
STEEM ON ma
Can't leave more than this comment because I'm yet to regain my strength fully ma.
Thank you so much, @honourmaus. You are one in a million! I'll go check out the post ASAP. May the steem force be with you! Lol.
I have NOT tried it yet, but this looks and sounds VERY interesting @spectacles
Why do you spam my blog page, @cassidyandfranks? Please, take your spam out, otherwise @spaminator and @sadkitten will take it out for you. Thank you.
Sorry @maryfavour
"Is there a desktop app available that can help a Steemian schedule his/her posts? Please, leave me your comments in the reply section below. I would really love to see and respond to them as soon as I can. "
I thought these links would be of some help.
I will take them down.
The reply I got from you, @cassidyandfranks, with three links, looked to me like spam, especially as you didn't point out in the reply what the links were meant to do in line with help I need to get a desktop app for scheduling posts. Feel free to repost any of the link that would be of help in this regard. Thank you.
Thank you, all the same, for pointing me to @spectacles, from where I can keep track the type/kind of followers that I have.
Your welcome @redfishpillar
Unfortunately @spectacles is somewhat new and I just came across it yesterday and have NOT yet tried it out. Steemit is FULL of hidden treasures that may or may NOT shine as bright at the beginning, time WILL TELL!
More eyes and hands on always helps so please let us know if you get to try it out before me.
Keep STEEM N ON,
Frank
Pretty tight schedule you follow :) but always great to see your post
That's correct, @blazing. I might not follow through, the way it is stated. However, I just wrote it down as a guide to help me. Definitely looking at taking at least a day off, most likely Monday.
one day we all need rest for sure haahh and monday is exactly the day :D
Really ur post is amazing and I like ur work🌹
Good luck my lady @maryfavour👍
Write up my friend😊
You are really trying ma. Managing one is not easy. To think of what to write, make sure you like it and hoping the readers will like it too is not an easy thing.
Hmm...you can say that again, @smyle. It's never an easy thing to be original and creative. However, we have to just be able to leave our footprints in the sands of time. The steemit blockchain is a beautiful place for us to do so. Thanks for the encouragement. I really appreciate it. Steem on!
wow, this is one hell of a schedule ma. It requires full dedication and commitment to see through it. But with the reviews i have heard and read about you, i believe it could be achieved.
Thank you for your contribution to steemit, the world will be a better place with women like you.
Quite a hell of a schedule as you've rightly stated. I will just do the best I can to keep up with it. Most importantly, I hope to find those to collaborate with for @redfishpillar project. Glad that some have already volunteered their time.
This last statement of yours is encouraging and so fulfilling. Thank you!!!
I am glad ma that i could encourage you with my words. You deserve even better. Happy Sunday to you. And stay blessed.
Just ensure you get your rests. Remember that "all blog and no rest makes @maryfavour a dull lady".
I will, @illuminatus. After thinking through the schedule again, the smartest thing to do is to take Monday off .
Hahahaaa...so true! Thank you, dear.
I pray you get more strength to continue the good works you've done so far.. But please try to find some rest while working this hard too..thanks for this post it's helpful to me.
I can understand how you must be busy with these 2 accounts my friend! It is really not easy! I've seen my husband so busy too with his own blog + @steemit-ironchef!
But you are doing great work for the community, bravo for that!
Wish you lots of success my friend.
Hello, my friend @creativewoman! I'm sorry for the late reply. It's good that you can empathise with me from your husband's experience with @steemit-ironchef. Very challenging, but we'll find ways to overcome and still make the positive which we desire. Thanks for your commendation. I appreciate your contribution too to the community. Enjoy!
@maryfavour for @redfishpillar
i can only imagine how exhausting handling all of this must be, weldone @maryfavour , i wish you strength!!! cheers.
It is only better imagined that experienced, @epikcoin. Only going to do my best. Thanks for your contribution.
Thanks a lot, i really needed this
You are welcome, @iron-rode.

Firstly, I don't understand French, @morwhale. Secondly, I really don't like bot infestation on my blog, @originalworks. So, please, kindly take your spam comments out or @spaminator @sadkitten will take them out. Thank you.
iam not a bot iam @hdmed the owner of @morwhale i have seen your post in steemit tag, and want to know how you post good content, thanks for 10% downvote Nigerian lady @maryflavour
Thank you for revealing your identity, @hbdmed as the owner of @morwhale and @originalworks. I have removed my red flag, but I need you to delete all your comments, because they do not contribute in any way to the theme/topic of this post. Besides, I did not solicit for the need to be included in @originalworks. For that reason, I still consider almost all your comments as spam. Summarily, remove all your comments. They are still not beneficial to this post. Thank you.

thank you @maryfavour for sharing with us all this information, I see you are very busy with your two blogs and a mission state and despite that you had taken the time to show us how well we managed to steemit. thank you so much.
