The Technical Writer's Dilemma

You spend hours writing a detailed technical article. You research, you code, you test, you document. The article is comprehensive, well-structured, and valuable.

Then comes the hard part: getting it in front of people.

You have to:

  1. Format it for WordPress
  2. Add categories and tags
  3. Set a featured image
  4. Schedule publication
  5. Create a LinkedIn post to promote it
  6. Schedule the LinkedIn post
  7. Remember to actually post on LinkedIn when the article goes live

That's another 2-3 hours of work. For every article.

The Distribution Problem

Most technical writers face the same challenges:

Wordpress Management Is Time-Consuming

  • Logging into WordPress admin
  • Creating new posts
  • Formatting content
  • Managing categories and tags
  • Setting publication dates
  • Uploading featured images

Linkedin Promotion Is Manual

  • Writing promotional posts
  • Finding the right time to post
  • Actually posting when articles go live
  • Maintaining consistency

The Context Switching Problem

You're constantly switching between:

  • Your writing tool
  • WordPress admin
  • LinkedIn
  • Your calendar
  • Your notes

Each switch costs mental energy and time.
