Since I started this blog my aim, besides making money, was to write a post every day. I felt that this was necessary for all sorts of reasons and something I had to do.Over the last seven to ten days I haven't been able to post something daily because of other commitments. I was slightly concerned about this.
The strange thing is that my worries have been unfounded. The blog is still getting the same amount of visitors and I'm getting the same number of clicks.
In fact, if anything, the number of hits has increased - though I suspect that this is purely because of the time of the year. January is an active time for people and their New Year resolutions about making money.
So I have broken what I considered to be the great taboo but it's virtually made no difference to this blog.
The question is: Is writing a post every day essential to success? Or perhaps even more than one post.
Personally I still feel that something should be written every day, and I hope soon to get back to this, but it does sort of show that there are a lot of myths about blogging. The 'experts' aren't always correct.
Probably when starting blogging regular posts are essential to build trust and to show that you are serious about what you are doing. Once established though, it may be preferable but not quite so necessary.
It would be interesting to know how other bloggers feel about this.
Good luck,
Mike.
