Look around some mega blogs like Tech Crunch and Mashable.
They publish several posts per day. One after each 3-5 hours. And
that’s why these giants have occupied a great portion of the online
traffic. But you can surely achieve that stage with better planning and
time management. If you have a good friend circle then you can encourage
them to write posts on your blog. After all great number of good
articles is what you need to receive your desired traffic.
I
have always personally observed my traffic expanding greatly when I
post more and more. You might have observed that the traffic Percentage
Change goes red in your Google Analytics when you don’t post and goes green again when you start posting actively.
Top 10 Reasons why you must Post Frequently!
This is how this simple yet most effective trick works:
- Robots visit blogs periodically depending on how often the blog is updated
- The faster a blog updates the faster it is crawled and indexed by Search Engines
- Since there is big competition amongst search engines themselves so they always look into more updated content and try their best to provide the searchers with the most up to date content
- By posting more your blog becomes an encyclopedia for Google where it can find variety of topics
- The smaller your number of posts and posting frequency, the smaller you get in the eyes of search engine robots.
- Robots are more like school teachers they love you when you provide them with complete homework on time and they penalize you (lower your ranking) when you turn lazy.
- When you post more, your readers will remain active and would often visit your blog and read your feeds. Thus you multiply Pageviews and page impressions. As a result revenue through Ads blossom.
- The only thing with which you can beat any competitor is by turning your blog into an Encyclopedia of your selected Topic. Remember the weakest point on a competitors side is always laziness so make his dumbness your strength and burst him with tonnes of articles and grab all his readers and traffic. That is surely legal!
- When you update more, your readership would increase because readers would often check back to see if you have something new to share. Subscribers mean a lot!
- Frequent updates when shared on Twitter and Facebook will surely expand your followers/ fans list.
