Plan a month of posts in a spreadsheet: one row per post with date, time, caption, networks, media, alt text, link and first comment, plus pillar, status and owner. A month overview counts it all for you.
Free, no sign-up or e-mail needed. The files open in Excel, Google Sheets, LibreOffice or any PDF reader.
| Sheet | What it does |
|---|---|
| Posts | One row per post. The first nine columns (date, time, caption, accounts, media, alt, link, first_comment, title) are the posting details; pillar, status, owner and notes are for planning. Pillar and status have drop-down lists. |
| Overview | Counts posts per content pillar and per status, the total, posts without media and images without alt text. |
| Lists | Your content pillars; edit them and the drop-downs and overview follow. |
| How to use | Short instructions for each column. |
The CSV contains the nine posting columns with three example rows. It is saved as UTF-8 so accents and emoji survive when you open it in Excel.
The posting columns match PostRoost’s bulk upload, and the planning columns are ignored on upload. Upload the workbook (the Posts sheet must stay first) or the CSV, check the rows PostRoost flags, and the month is scheduled. Bulk upload is included from the Essentials plan.
