His suggestions make a lot of sense to me and I have spent the past several days strategizing and re-positioning my blog. I’ve made several changes and have several more left to be completed. [...]

Hi,
Rather than look at how you would like to blog. why not look at the issue from your blog readers prespective.

i guess it’d be easy for them to come one time and read 7 new posts and then disappear.

but if you’d like to build regular readership, it’d be good to post one post at a time. I tend to blog at the time i post, rather than pre-write multiple posts.

if time is an issue, you can set up scheduled posting (but it isnt entirely bug-free).

you might also want to update your WP blog to 2.0.5 as it fixes a number of security bugs too.

Hi Andrew!
Do you think that posting consistently like 1 post a day is better than posting 7 post in one shot every monday? I would like to know if these 2 ways make a difference to the reader and search engines?

Mine is not a marketing blog and my focus is to drive more traffic and improve the stickiness. But I believe the same principle applies whether it is a marketing blgo or not right? :>

Ethan,
I looked at the traffic rankings for your blog. I don’t believe you’d be missing out on much if you removed the adsense and it’ll help you out a whole lot in the long run.

If you are serious about generating income from your blog, you’d want to post content more frequently.

Thanks for always proving such solid advice Andrew! I am finding it hard not to put advertisements on my blog though.

Hi John,
tks for your feedback.

i had a look at your blog

i was wondering if you might be interested to bring your blog to the next level?

you might want to include more content for your readers and tone down some of the adsense. it will hurt you in the long run.

Hi Andrew,

Great Advise from you. Really it hard to part to not to put adsense ad in the beginning but i am sure your reason is valid if blog is for branding “me” purpose. Another point I agree with you is one after another of sale pitch in the blog post. It can be really irritating sometime.

Great Post Andrew
