Default Blog posting frequency...

I have been struggling with the blogging frequency issue on my new blog. Knowing I am working hard to provide valuable content and not getting very many readers and commentators is very frustrating

I just came across a fantastic article on blogging frequency that is worth the read.

After reading it, I do not feel pressured to post everyday. In fact, I would rather have 3-4 quality posts a week than posting everyday and not being read.

Your thoughts?????

It's a good article. I don't feel pressure if I don't post every day. I post only if I have something to say.

It's hard to post all the time. Especially if you want good content. I'd say what Diana suggested and post when you can. Try and keep somewhat frequent but a missed day isn't the end of the world. It's hard to post everyday isn't it lol. Especially with a definite topic. That is why personal / whatever blogs are easier to maintain as well you can post about anything without "alienating" your audience.

I was just looking at your blog Mike; I think you could benefit from Guest Writers. Find other instructors who don't have popular blogs and let them write a great article for you. Just give a link to there website at the bottom. Should be enough for them and it benefits you. Win Win. What do you think?

I totally agree, and prefer quality over quantity.

My opinion is that you don't really have to post every day. I post every day, because I do find interesting topics to talk about..I believe that for me it is easier, because I have a blog about making money and I find topics lot faster and easier than others. But, as I said, post every time you have something to say. If you have something interesting to say every day, then you can post it every day. If it is a bit harder to find topics to talk about, then first do some research, then come and post the information you found, on your blog, even if this mean not posting daily..
As Qurratulain said, you should prefer quality over quantity

Well in my case, funnily I have something to say everyday. Hehe, I actually have to stop myself from posting from than twice in a day. Overall I try to maintain a 1+ posting schedule everyday and have successfully done thus far.

In my opinion, it's best if you post more than twice a day, everyday, especially when your blog is new. When it gets established then you can cut your frequency a bit.
