Content Calendar Help

[Workaholic]

Hey guys,

I am about to start creating a content calendar that I will be using to pitch blogs and news websites with the goal of gaining a link and driving traffic to my site.

Do you guys have some bookmarked links that can help me follow a step by step process on how to develop a content calendar?

I'm looking at something like what tools to use, how to figure out what's hot in a particular niche, social media topics, etc.

Thanks in advance!
