How often do you blog?

Google had released the SEO Guidethat could improve the websites’ rankings in Google and other search engines. However, what should be frequency of updating a blog?

Of course writing a good article can get you links and increase web traffic. Articles shared to social networks and bookmarks could even create a web server bandwidth outage. Following those simple tips stated in the SEO guide could also improve page rank and revenue via whatever products or services you are offering.

Search engine robots like to get fresh content from your site especially if that content you published is relevant enough to certain keywords in line with your site. However, robots will sometimes flag you as something if it will notice that fresh content is not as good and relevant to your keywords. A unique and useful article helps a lot.

Google tips for bloggers suggests that “Write well and often. A frequently updated site encourages people to return – as long as your content remains relevant and engaging. A useful post once a week is better than low-quality content published daily. A great idea is to search Google for subjects of interest in your field. If you can’t find a good answer, create a blog post about the subject – chances are that other people are searching for the same thing.”

Haven’t you got it yet? Don’t just post about anything just to have some updates and fresh content daily. Stop and think again. Do you think you are writing just to get noticed? Do you blog for the search engines or for your readers? Does it make sense having all those nice articles you got there that are way not so relevant to your sites theme?

Short articles such as this you are reading right now is perfectly good enough than those a hundred more words article that talks about something your readers might not be interested. Just think of your readers before your blog.
