  1. Great to see your post after some time 🙂 . I agree with you that it is not necessary to post every day …….as one should not post for the heck of posting. Your posts should have value for your readers.

    Blog commenting works fine for me for driving traffic and i also get some quality traffic from Blogcatalog and Facebook.

  2. Firstly let me apoligize for not posting for such a long time i guess i was a bit busy and could not find the inspiration to post and you are right shabnam we should not post for the sake of posting but to give our readers but give our readers good stuff to read.

  3. Hi lawmacs,

    Enjoyed reading your article.

    I agree that there is no set rule for how many posts one should write on a regular basis. However, I do think that writing "quality" articles that are relevant is more important. Giving your readers what they are looking for and building relationships with them will give you a pathway to a successful blog.

  4. Thank you bro for this detailed post. very useful and informative. Blogging on a regular basis is very important. I agree with you on this completely. I have done the same thing for the last two years and I have seen this traffic go up like anything. But its also true that if you don’t do it the same, you are most likely to see the opposite, a drastic drop in the traffic. As a blogger, my advice will be – post at least thrice a week, post original content, put keywords at the right places, submit your post on social bookmarking sites like stumbleupon, digg, twitter, facebook, etc.. And yes, as you said..commenting can also be one of the best mediums to gain traffic. We must make sure that we are leaving our comments on the blogs we visit. This is a must do activity for any blogger. Plus there can be many more but these are basics and very easy to follow..

  5. with new post you can talk about something new, we can’t just hoping for oldie to do the goodie..
    and communicate with reader sure important.

It also Increase your revenue and exposure globally with SEO, SEM, SMS and email marketing. I took service from it and find it very helpful.

  7. Quality over quantity. It’s better to not to post for posting’s sake, it might help your search engine rankings but your readers will prefer quality posts.

  8. I don’t have much to say about gaining traffic etc..because until now I am still learning all the stuffs here in blogging. But I agree that when you post,. it should make sense and people can learn something by reading it. 🙂
