This quick blogging tip is one that I used to suffer from back in the beginning stages of my blog. I would frequently write posts on my blog just to be writing something. I never spent enough time to completely think through what I was going to write about and in turn this led to posts my readers weren’t as interested to check out. Bottom line, I’ve found it’s better to have higher quality less frequent posts than a higher post frequency if you can’t maintain that same level of quality whether it be because of time constraints or some other reason. I’ve seen blogs that post just to post and I just get the feeling that they’re just trying to fill a quota. With that said of course it’s important to maintain a consistent posting schedule and post as often as you can, but make sure you don’t post on your blog just to post. If your posts come across as forced readers can see that and will be less likely to subscribe to your RSS or comment on your blog.

Have you ever found yourself posting just to post?
