[Second Half of 2024] Don't Miss the Best Timing to Publish Articles! A Creative Calendar for Creators

We have created a creative calendar for the second half of 2024 for creators who think, "I want to post more on note" or "I have themes I want to write about, but I can't seem to finish them!"

This calendar helps you understand which themes are likely to be read and when, serving as a reference when you are unsure about when to publish an article or what content to write about. We hope you find it useful for your creative activities in the second half of the year.

What is a Creative Calendar?

We have extracted and summarized seasonal and trending topics based on articles that were widely read, hashtags, and themes that received high search traffic from the web over the past year.

We would be very happy if you could save it to your computer or smartphone, or print it out and stick it in a place where you can easily see it.

How to Use the Creative Calendar by Concern

We created this creative calendar with the desire to solve these common creator concerns!

I have a theme I want to write about, but I can't seem to finish it.
For example, if you are writing an article about "things I'm glad I bought," you could decide to publish it in November or December when Black Friday or winter bonuses occur! If you know the time when the need for an article is high from the calendar, you can work backward from there to decide on the publication date.

I want to write something, but I can't think of any ideas.
Please try using the "Themes and Keywords Likely to be Read" for that month as a reference.

I want to make better use of the articles I have published so far.
On note, even articles published years ago have a chance to be read. If there is a timing when interest in an article you wrote might increase, such as "a movie I wrote a review for has been nominated for an Academy Award," we recommend sharing it on social media again or introducing the link to the article using the note tweet function.

I want to be read more, if possible.
Let's use the "Themes and Keywords Likely to be Read" as a reference. If you want people to find your article through web searches, this article may also provide some hints.

2024 Trend Forecasts and One-Point Advice for Announcements

Here are some points regarding themes that are likely to be popular in 2024 and the timing for sharing articles on social media.

• At milestones such as the end of the year, the beginning of the year, or the end of the first half, articles that look back or list "Best of" items tend to be popular.

• Movie analysis and review articles are likely to be read not only during their theatrical run but also when they start streaming on services like Amazon Prime Video or Netflix, or when they are broadcast on TV. Sharing past articles on social media at those times is also a great idea.

• How to use the latest tools like ChatAI and generative AI, as well as tools that help with work efficiency like Notion, will continue to be in demand by readers.

• For dramas, anime, manga, etc., it is a good idea to publish articles or introduce previously published related articles when they become a hot topic, such as when the latest episode is released, an award is won, or they are made available on streaming services.

• Impressions of comedy award shows are most likely to be read from the day of the event up to a week later. It is also recommended to re-share past articles related to the comedians who performed well.

• With the return of travel demand, articles about travel and travel goods are attracting attention.

• Due to the weak yen and rising prices, articles introducing ways to enjoy a minimalist lifestyle are expected to remain popular (Reference: #ThingsIBoughtAndLoved Report 2023).

• Events like Comiket and the Literary Flea Market are likely to continue to be successful. When exhibiting, it is convenient to summarize information such as your menu, booth location, and the social media accounts you usually use on note in advance.
