Two Blog Posts per Day: Making the Move

Since starting this blog, I have made one post per day, everyday. While this may not sound like a lot, it is a goal that I take very seriously. I strive to make sure that readers have something new to think about everyday of the week; even Saturday and Sunday. After about 60 days of doing this, I think that I am finally ready to step up to two posts per day. There are several reasons that I am considering this.

First off, I have received a lot of positive response from readers, and many of them are asking for more posts. Since I like to keep everybody happy, I would love to increase my daily output. I feel that I have the time to do this, and even if something came up, I could always take a step back to one post per day while getting back on track.

Additionally, I have a backlog of topics that I really want to write about. Writing is what I do, and having so many great topics staring me in the face makes me anxious. To me, coming up with new topics has never been a problem, and it seems that I add a few new ones to my list everyday. If I am ever going to get through them all, increasing my output is essential.

Finally, I am hoping that adding more content will help with traffic; both from returning visitors and search engines. If this happens, I can then move forward with some of the other goals that I have for this blog.

I am not totally sure if I am going to make the move to two posts per day, but it is on my mind. By later this week I will definitely have a decision!

    Good luck with whatever route you decide on. My goal is at least once a day, but I’ll post more if I have other stuff to post.

    That’s for my main blog, anyway. My other blogs aren’t getting as much love.

    The key is to post as many times as possible, but, for someone with a regular life, two posts a day is a noble goal.

    Michael - I agree, as many quality posts as possible is a good thing. For me, I think two per day is a good goal!

    DCR - I know what you mean about having more than one blog; that can make things tough. Two posts per day on one blog can be tough enough. But when you add other blogs things can get messy!

  5. Chris Lodge Says:

    The main thing is consistency of posting: Not so much ‘how many’ but ‘how often’. Inconsistent gaps can lead to readers leaving.

    Having said that, the more you put out there, the more Google will love you. Are you using the sitemap plugin? That’s the single most powerful tool I’ve found for attracting Googles attention.

    Chris - Thanks for the tips. I am using the sitemap plugin, and I agree that it definitely helps!
