Content Calendar Generator (Print, CSV, or Add to Your Calendar)

Pick the days you publish, how many weeks to plan, and the topics to rotate. Get a schedule you can print, export as CSV, or download as an .ics file for Google or Apple Calendar.

Two a week is the pace I can keep. One is fine. Daily is a job.

The plan cycles through these in order so no topic gets forgotten.

Your plan

— posts

Per week—
Last publish date—
Writing time at ~3 h a post—

Add a title to each row as you think of it; the empty "Title" column is the real to-do list. The .ics file adds every slot to Google or Apple Calendar.

How I plan a month

I pick the publish days first, then fill the table with titles in one sitting — usually 8 to 10 for a month, across the sites. The writing happens in batches on the days I have a long block. The schedule is what makes the batching possible: there's never a question of what to write next.

The Time-Block Planner finds the hours; this tool decides what goes into them.

Questions I get asked

How many posts a week should I plan?
The number you can keep up for six months, not the number that sounds ambitious. For me that's two a week per site, written in batches. One a week is a perfectly good blog; daily is a job.
How does the .ics file work?
Download it and open it — your calendar app will offer to import the events, one all-day event per publish date. In Google Calendar, use Settings → Import. Titles come from the table if you've typed them, otherwise the topic.
Why rotate topics?
So no category goes silent. Rotation also makes the next title easier to pick: you know it's a 'Traffic' day, so you only have to think about traffic.
Can I save the plan?
Export CSV or .ics — the table itself isn't stored, by design. Keep the CSV as the master list and tick titles off there.
