    Editorial Calenders

    Food bloggers can use the national food holidays as a content planning strategy - celebrating your favorite dishes and posting them to your blog. This makes for easy re-posting of recipes each year on the same date, keeping your blog relevant and ensuring a constant stream of content for your readers.

    Why participate? Each year thousands of people will search for information about that food day, looking for recipe ideas to cook. These are trends that are easily overlooked because they spike during one day in a specific month, and get smoothed over by data from the rest of the year.
