How often do you post on your websites?

I am interested to know how often everyone else posts on their websites and how long these posts are?

I've just been chatting to another blogger and he said that he posts a 3000 word post every single day and he does it all himself. He is in the online marketing niche so it is content that needs to be well written.

How on earth does someone do this? I just can't figure it out.

I wish I could write like that for my website each and every day but if I write a 3000 word post it will take me 2 full days to get it exactly right.

With keyword research, researching my topic, writing the content, adding images... there is just no way I can do a 3000 post every single day.

I am just interested to know what other people do.

3,000 words per post is incredibly difficult unless you have plenty or rambling and run on sentences lol

I've posted here on Seocheckout and I think my longest was 1,800 words, but even that took a while. I knew what I wanted to write about and didn't think of how long it was going to be when I started. I might have been able to get it to 3,000 words if I stretched out the wording as much as possible, but when someone does that the text begins to be unreadable. And for anyone that hasn't read my posts, I like to get right to the point without a lot of fluff and pointless content

As for how often you should post, it's really up to you. I like to post at least 10 times a month and those posts are 800 to 1,200 words a piece. A lot of people will tell you that 400 word articles is enough for the search engines, but I want my readers to get all the info and feel satisfied with what they read. What's the point of giving them 400 words of content when it needs 800+ to be explained well. I never understood people when they complained about their 400 word articles not getting the traction they thought they deserved lol

If I were to do one extremely detailed post per day, I'm pretty sure I could get it to 3,000 words. It would just take a lot of time and I'd have to rewrite sections a few times and add in new info each time. Articles that size are pretty tough to do

That's what I thought. I once wrote a post of 3 500 words and it took me just over 2 days to complete but I have to say that it was a brilliant piece of content

I also write what I need to say and yes there have been a very few occasions where my post was not nearly as long as I would have liked it to be... but really there was nothing more to say. The subject was covered and I don't like fluffing up a subject that is well... done. There is no point.

I always aim for at least 1000 words and if I can write it longer yay. If I can't well then I can't.

Its good to do it at least 1 time or 2 times per day websites are different from social media but fresh content is important. Whether you have a blog, corporate website or ecommerce store, updating your website on a regular basis has a few benefits here is two, It’s good for SEO – Search engines love content and especially new content. They like to have long quality posts in their index to satisfy their users. A website that is updated regularly is crawled more often, has more pages in the index and more possibilities to boost SEO by applying internal linking best practices. It’s good for your users – Websites are meant to serve users and giving users fresh content makes them happier. A happy user will most probably come back, convert, register, buy or recommend your website to other people. I am not saying that this is easy as 1-2-3, you need to first get your website noticed so that it receives a decent amount of readers but once you reach to that point everything becomes easier.

I rarely post on my current blogs. I have only 2 at the moment. One of them is personal and I only used it for testing on-page and off-page SEO ideas and the other one is on medical niche on which I write an article once per month, usually around 1000-1500 words with lots of secondary keywords, h2, and photos.

Hi Lynne thanks for your question. Writing 3000 word content and post in a day really incredible. I am thinking now how he manage time. Is he only work for content writing? I think for making effective post need to choose topic and need to research information and need to research keyword and title and need to make image perfectly I means a lot of work. When I make a blog first time, I tried to post each day at least few 1 topic. But after some month same energy will decrease and I tried to post 1 a week. And I saw my website improved on search engine unexpected. So, still I follow at least one article in a week. That should be good.

When I launched my blogs and websites back in 2015, I published new post regularly, once in 2-5 days. When I had 20 plus articles, I stopped publishing and instead focused on marketing and optimizing. Since my blogs and websites were new, they did not earn revenue. As a freelancer, I need to work on the projects that brought me quick money. Thus, I began focusing on something else. I did not work on my websites for a year. However, I am again giving focus on my website. I have begun to publish. These days, I am putting new content once a week.

When I was co-blogging, I would submit 1 article each week. Our blogsite would come out with 2 updates in a week, that’s one for me and another for the blogger. There was a plan to get another guest blogger so there will be 3 articles to be uploaded each week. But it happened that the blogger had to be focused on something else and he had abandoned the blogsite. I guess a post of 2 updates each week is good enough for the readers to come back for more.

I usually post daily on my site, doing this is good for SEO and it affects my rankings. I always make sure that I'm posting only good and original material on my site.
