The Perfect Blog Posting Schedule

"How often can you post to your site?" is an extremely popular question, to which there is absolutely no right or wrong answer. Twice a month? Twice a week? Twice a day? Just one single time a day?

You'll find plenty of different blogs promoting different scheduling for blog posts. Most of them recommend posting a few times weekly, maximum. Here's my undertake the issue - the two blog posting schedules that matter, and to what kinds of blogs they're applicable.Understanding Posting Schedules

First of all, you will need understand that there is absolutely no right/wrong answer for this question, as I've already stated. Different timings may or might not work for several types of blogs.

The following advice is not something that I believe works for every single blog, but it's what realy works for some (after my research).

How User Engagement & Blog Posting Are Related

First of all, it is a myth that readers will undoubtedly be annoyed if you update your blog daily. It's simply a myth, without real evidence to back it up. One of my all-time favorite blogs sends me an e-mail every day or every two days.


I love it. It offers me more information when compared to a month of Sundays of autoresponder messages from any blog.

That said, users also don't mind in the event that you post only once weekly. Honestly, readers are only seeking to see how they are able to benefit from your site - that's virtually the only reason they're there and just why they signed up to your e-mail list (unless they're friends or family.

Alright - let's get down to the posting schedules.

Daily/Multiple Times A Day

Oooh! I feel I'm going to provoke a substantial amount of controversy with this particular one, aren't I?

But yes - I believe that posting multiple times per day can be good for blogs. If for some reason you're not available to post multiple times a day, then you should strive to post at least one time a day. For pretty much 95% of people scanning this post, that's what you ought to be doing.

You need to definitely post this often if you run one of the following blogs, or take part in one of the following business strategies.

Informational/Tips Blogs

Take this blog for example - it deals mainly with blogging, Online marketing, and SEO tips. Put simply, it offers valuable information to those who read this website regularly.

To be branded being an authority in your niche, your site needs to have as much helpful, quality content onto it. If which means posting 3-5 times each day, go ahead.

Most blogs on the net (including yours) will fall into this category.

Personal Blogs

Let's face it - personal blogs usually do not get much traffic. The prior rule about readers coming solely for personal benefit once more applies here.

There's little benefit a reader can gain from your personal blog unless you're A.) Hilarious or B.) A fantastic writer who can hold people spellbound.

Chances are, you're not either. But let's just guess that you decide to go on and start a personal blog regardless. You should be posting once per day.

For some personal blogs, I wouldn't recommend more often than once a day (because hey - people like to have a while to take into account themselves, and not just you).

However, once per day is usually necessary, if you need any kind of traffic. It is because that the people who do follow and read your blog regularly obviously think you're an excellent writer or funny. And, they want their daily dose of fantastic funny (but again, don't overdose).

The Benefits

No doubt about any of it, there are particular benefits you get from posting daily that you won't get if you post less often.

Search Engine Optimization

Although this can't be outright proven, it's becoming clearer that Google favors blogs that post content frequently throughout the day.

When you publish a fresh post, Google is automatically notified. Eventually, their spiders are certain to get to crawling your pages and ranking them.

If they are notified quite often, which means you blog often. In the event that you blog often, which means your blog is active and regularly providing content to your readers.

Everything said, this can not be proven, but it is a general trend I see after conducting research in the SERP's.

Alexa Ranking

Although posting 10 times a day mean that you'll automatically be promoted to the most notable 1000 blogs, the blogs that engage a higher-frequency posting schedule often rank higher, in comparison to blogs that post less frequently with exactly the same quality standards.

Case Studies

I recently found a forum thread where an Internet marketer laid down his technique to go from $0-$200/day in AdSense earnings in two months flat.

What he basically did was outsource cheap article writing jobs to freelance writers. He hired plenty of 'em, posting on his blog 30-40 times. Every. Single. Day.

The effect? He's sitting pretty with $200/day in AdSense earnings. In two months, flat. And that's only one of his online businesses.

Let's take another example. An excellent friend of mine, for whom Not long ago i guest posted, has a prestigious Alexa rank of 44K, amassing a complete of 14,000 page views each day.

He posts a minimum of three times each day. And it's taken him a measly 2 yrs to be at where he is right now.

That's pretty good, if you ask me.

ALTERNATIVELY...

However, this rule doesn't apply to all sorts of blogs. Actually, posting multiple times each day, and even once daily, would be disastrous to certain blogs.

Business Blogs

By business blogs, I mean blogs that participate in already established, offline companies - Wal-Mart, for example. These types of blogs should not - I repeat, shouldn't post a lot more than twice weekly (and really, once a week is all you should be doing).

Why?

Simply because those forms of blogs aren't meant to be updated regularly. Quite often, they're simply about discounts, or business news.

They have no need for SEO (unless it's a local service people actually seek out online). Essentially, it's only a front that says "we're online too".

ARE YOU EXPERIENCING Something Worthwhile To Say?

You have something worthwhile to say? Something that will in actuality help/inspire/motivate people? Do https://sites.google.com/view/basenjimom/ ?

You don't?

Then don't say anything.

Simple as that. If you're not sure about whether you should blog everyday, then blog when you have something to say.

However, try to maintain some kind of consistency. In the event that you get sudden post inspirations, then go ahead and write the blog posts, but don't publish them - yet.
