It\u2019s your roadmap for planning, organizing, and executing content that actually supports your goals. Whether you&#8217;re a solo creator or part of a larger team, having a shared, structured calendar helps you stay focused, avoid last-minute scrambles, and publish with purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this guide, we\u2019ll walk you through what an editorial calendar is, how to build one from scratch, and share some templates to help you get started right away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is an Editorial Calendar?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>An editorial calendar is a planning tool that maps out your content topics, formats, and publishing schedule over time. It helps you organize what you&#8217;re creating, when it\u2019s going live, and who\u2019s responsible, all in one place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can choose to view your editorial calendar as a spreadsheet list, task list, kanban board or a calendar depending on what tool you use to set it up.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, at Crazy Egg, we use a kanban board in Trello to manage our blog editorial calendar:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"860\" height=\"327\" src=\"https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01140041\/Editorial-Calendar-Trello-Crazy-Egg.png\" alt=\"Trello board for Crazy Egg content. \" class=\"wp-image-103972\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01140041\/Editorial-Calendar-Trello-Crazy-Egg.png 860w, https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01140041\/Editorial-Calendar-Trello-Crazy-Egg-300x114.png 300w, https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01140041\/Editorial-Calendar-Trello-Crazy-Egg-768x292.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 860px) 100vw, 860px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Are Editorial Calendars Important?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Without a plan, content creation can quickly become chaotic. An editorial calendar brings structure to the process, helping you and your team stay consistent, strategic, and aligned with your brand goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Editorial calendars are especially helpful because:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Consistency builds trust.<\/strong> Publishing regularly keeps your audience engaged and signals reliability to search engines.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Better collaboration.<\/strong> Teams can see what\u2019s coming up, who\u2019s doing what, and avoid stepping on each other\u2019s toes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>More strategic content.<\/strong> A calendar makes it easier to align content with product launches, campaigns, or seasonal trends.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Less stress.<\/strong> With deadlines, drafts, and ideas laid out in advance, you can stop scrambling and start creating intentionally.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you&#8217;re managing a blog solo or running a content team, an editorial calendar turns reactive publishing into proactive marketing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step-By-Step Guide to Create an Editorial Calendar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Creating an editorial calendar doesn\u2019t need to be complicated. The key is to start with your goals, build around your workflow, and keep things flexible enough to adapt as priorities shift.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below, we\u2019ll walk through each step to help you build a calendar that works for your content, team, and publishing rhythm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1: Define Your Content Goals<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Without clear goals, even the most organized editorial calendar can lead to wasted effort. Your goals give structure to your content, shaping not just <em>what<\/em> you create, but <em>why<\/em> it matters and <em>who<\/em> it&#8217;s for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ask yourself:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Are you trying to grow organic traffic through SEO?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are you educating existing customers to reduce support inquiries?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are you trying to build authority in a niche market?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are you supporting a new product or service launch?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Each of these goals will lead to different content decisions, from the types of formats you prioritize (e.g., long-form blogs vs. short videos) to the cadence you choose and metrics you track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Write down 2\u20133 clear content goals and keep them visible as you build your calendar.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That way, every piece of content you add serves a purpose, and every deadline helps drive the outcomes that matter to your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: Choose Your Content Channels<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your editorial calendar should reflect the types of content you actually plan to publish and where you will publish them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That means choosing the right channels (like blog, email, or social) and formats (like videos, articles, or podcasts) based on your goals and audience behavior.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are the most common types of editorial calendars and free templates you can use to get started:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Blog Content<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>A blog editorial calendar tracks article topics, keywords, authors, deadlines, and publish dates.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s essential for SEO planning and content consistency, especially if you&#8217;re coordinating multiple contributors or building a content cluster strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, here\u2019s a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.airtable.com\/templates\/blog-editorial-calendar\/expOe8CamJVxmLrfS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">blog editorial calendar template<\/a> you can use from Airtable:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1428\" height=\"788\" src=\"https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01140152\/Editorial-Calendar-Airtable.png\" alt=\"Blog editorial calendar template in Airtable. \" class=\"wp-image-103973\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01140152\/Editorial-Calendar-Airtable.png 1428w, https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01140152\/Editorial-Calendar-Airtable-300x166.png 300w, https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01140152\/Editorial-Calendar-Airtable-1024x565.png 1024w, https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01140152\/Editorial-Calendar-Airtable-768x424.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1428px) 100vw, 1428px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It connects your blog content pipeline to your team and other distribution channels (like social media).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Social Media Posts<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>A social editorial calendar helps you stay consistent across platforms while aligning messaging with broader campaigns.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can plan by theme, audience segment, format (e.g., reels, carousels), and even performance insights from previous posts.

Tools like Google Sheets or Excel let you build a simple yet custom calendar that fits your process.

Great for individuals or small teams who don\u2019t need a lot of complexity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Calendar View&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>A calendar view is a very common way teams view their content plan. It\u2019s a visual layout that maps your content across days, weeks, or months, just like a traditional calendar.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, here\u2019s the calendar view from Airtable\u2019s blog calendar template:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1383\" height=\"714\" src=\"https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01142029\/Editorial-Calendar-Monday-Through-Friday.png\" alt=\"Airtable calendar view. \" class=\"wp-image-103978\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01142029\/Editorial-Calendar-Monday-Through-Friday.png 1383w, https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01142029\/Editorial-Calendar-Monday-Through-Friday-300x155.png 300w, https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01142029\/Editorial-Calendar-Monday-Through-Friday-1024x529.png 1024w, https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01142029\/Editorial-Calendar-Monday-Through-Friday-768x396.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1383px) 100vw, 1383px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You can generate a view like this in other tools including project management apps (like Asana), productivity apps (like Notion), or in specialist content managing apps (like CoSchedule).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of the time, such a view will be automatically generated based on the data you put into the app. For example, Aitrable can switch from a spreadsheet view to a calendar view, displaying the same data in two different ways. Most project management tools can do the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you prefer this format for managing your content calendar, make sure you confirm the tool you\u2019re thinking of using offers it as a view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Task (or List) View<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Project management platforms like Asana, ClickUp, or Notion offer more robust task and project planning features.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The default view in these apps tends to be a task list, like this view from <a href=\"https:\/\/asana.com\/resources\/how-create-execute-editorial-calendar\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Asana\u2019s editorial calendar template<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2568\" height=\"1364\" src=\"https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01142422\/Editorial-Calendar-Asana.png\" alt=\"Asana editorial calendar tasks. \" class=\"wp-image-103982\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01142422\/Editorial-Calendar-Asana.png 2568w, https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01142422\/Editorial-Calendar-Asana-300x159.png 300w, https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01142422\/Editorial-Calendar-Asana-1024x544.png 1024w, https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01142422\/Editorial-Calendar-Asana-768x408.png 768w, https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01142422\/Editorial-Calendar-Asana-1536x816.png 1536w, https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01142422\/Editorial-Calendar-Asana-2048x1088.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2568px) 100vw, 2568px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You can assign tasks, track status through different content stages (drafting, editing, published), and collaborate with other team members in real time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This feature is ideal for content teams juggling multiple pieces, channels, and contributors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Board View (Kanban Style)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Inspired by kanban boards, this view lets you move content through different stages in your editorial process:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1415\" height=\"835\" src=\"https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01142139\/Editorial-Calendar-Trello.png\" alt=\"Kanban view with five columns. \" class=\"wp-image-103980\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01142139\/Editorial-Calendar-Trello.png 1415w, https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01142139\/Editorial-Calendar-Trello-300x177.png 300w, https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01142139\/Editorial-Calendar-Trello-1024x604.png 1024w, https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01142139\/Editorial-Calendar-Trello-768x453.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1415px) 100vw, 1415px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Trello is well-known (and well-liked) for its simplicity. You can create a simple board or get started with a <a href=\"https:\/\/trello.com\/templates\/marketing\/editorial-calendar-UQk1wa4a\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">pre-built editorial calendar template<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Board views offer a drag-and-drop dream for teams who like visual workflows and quick status updates. Ideal for managing editorial pipelines or agile content production.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you like flexibility, you can also look for tools that let you toggle between views, so you can brainstorm in a board view, manage your tasks in a list, and check your publishing rhythm in a calendar layout. Start with the view that makes the most sense to you, then evolve your setup as your process grows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 4: Map Out Your Content Themes or Pillars<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you fill your calendar with individual ideas, take a step back and define a few key themes or \u201ccontent pillars\u201d that support your brand, goals, or audience needs. These are the broad categories your content will consistently focus on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, if your company sells costumes, some key content pillars might be events, characters and audience segments:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1324\" height=\"757\" src=\"https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01142231\/Editorial-Calendar-Workflow.png\" alt=\"Content map\" class=\"wp-image-103981\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01142231\/Editorial-Calendar-Workflow.png 1324w, https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01142231\/Editorial-Calendar-Workflow-300x172.png 300w, https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01142231\/Editorial-Calendar-Workflow-1024x585.png 1024w, https:\/\/ceblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/01142231\/Editorial-Calendar-Workflow-768x439.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1324px) 100vw, 1324px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Having clear themes helps you stay strategic, avoid repetition, and create balanced coverage across topics.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It also makes brainstorming easier. Instead of starting from scratch, you\u2019re just slotting ideas into your pillars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aim for 3\u20136 themes to start with, and use them as a filter for what belongs in your editorial calendar (and what doesn\u2019t).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 5: Plan Specific Content Pieces<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once your themes are mapped out, it\u2019s time to start populating your calendar with actual content ideas. As you do, think holistically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Go beyond <em>what<\/em> you\u2019ll publish, and think about <em>how often<\/em>, <em>who\u2019s responsible<\/em>, and <em>how you\u2019ll stay adaptable<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Start by setting a realistic publishing cadence for each channel.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Weekly blog posts?&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Daily social updates?&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Monthly newsletters?&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Choose a rhythm you can maintain without sacrificing quality, and make space for both evergreen pieces and timely content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As you plan each item, assign clear ownership and deadlines (especially if you\u2019re a team of one). It\u2019s what holds you accountable and getting things done.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you work in a team, it\u2019s crucial to know who\u2019s creating, reviewing, and hitting publish. This helps prevent bottlenecks and keeps your calendar actionable, not aspirational.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, treat your calendar as a living document. Check in regularly, adjust priorities as needed, and be willing to shift gears if a certain format, topic, or frequency isn\u2019t working.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most effective editorial calendars are equal parts structure and flexibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to Do Next<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You don\u2019t need to build a perfect editorial calendar from day one, just a usable one. Here\u2019s how to turn this guide into action:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Start simple.<\/strong> Choose one content format or one platform and build a basic calendar around it, even a spreadsheet will do.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Brainstorm 10\u201315 ideas<\/strong> that align with your content pillars and goals. Don\u2019t overthink them since you can refine as you go.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Block time to review your calendar<\/strong> weekly or monthly. Look for what\u2019s working, what\u2019s falling behind, and where you can improve.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Repurpose wisely.<\/strong> One blog post can become a newsletter, a LinkedIn post, and a short video; your editorial calendar can help you plan for that from the start and save you time down the line.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The key is consistency, not perfection. The more you use your editorial calendar, the more powerful it becomes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you\u2019ve ever struggled to stay consistent with content, an editorial calendar might be the missing link.&nbsp; It\u2019s more than just a publishing schedule.
