An editorial calendar is an annual plan that highlights overarching themes and special issues for monthly publications to help advertisers, while a content calendar tracks the daily or weekly status and progress of individual content pieces on one or more platforms. Examples of editorial calendars include those from Cosmo, Real Simple, and Vogue, while content calendar templates come from LightBox Collective, Mozilla, and HubSpot, with the latter two including additional metadata and tracking posts at a weekly or daily level.
