Hm. I've been writing this blog now for a little over two years, I think. Maybe close to two and a half.
During the time that I've written this blog, I've always tried to keep on a set posting schedule - Monday, Wednesday, Friday. I set that arbitrary rule because I realized when I started reading others blogs (well before I ever thought I'd start this one), nothing bothered me more than to really get sucked into someone's blog ... only to find out a few days later that they had built up a string of 5-6 posts and blew through their story telling wad ... so they'd disappear for a month straight. Or longer.
When I set up this blog, I told myself I didn't want to be "that guy".
Regardless of my original goals, in the last few weeks, I've gotten a little busy with other things. Which has left me a bit deprived from my usual hunt and peck for info that I want to post on this blog. Not that this is a bad thing - it's good to keep busy. But it also means that for me, right now, keeping up with 3 posts a week is a bit much.
So starting today, and for the foreseeable future, I am going to change my blog to a 2 post a week set up. Check in with me each Tuesday and Thursday for news.
And who knows ... maybe I'll make it through this busy spell and switch back to a 3x format. We'll see!!
We're not getting paid to blog, so definitely no reason to force anything. Your blog, your rules! You do what works best for you!
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely guilty of being one of those bloggers who goes in major spurts, haha. It's a huge momentum thing for me!
No kidding! And to be honest, being paid to blog ... not sure if I want that 100%. I see so many people's blogs go down the tubes when they are overly sponsored and no longer authentic. :-)
