Do you schedule your blog for peak times?
When I first started blogging, I was posting 7 days a week. I really wanted a day off and so I started thinking about letting one day slide. Then I noticed that my stats for the weekend were about half what they were M-F. I started posting on Saturday stuff that really wasn't trying to market anything or really even being that good of content. I figured, when try on days when nobody is reading.
Then the holidays came and I thought I wouldn't post on those days either, for the same reason.
I have noticed that lots of those who are farther advanced in this biz than I, read Lynn and the like, did post o weekends and holidays.
What do you think? Am I being foolish for not posting on weekends and holidays? Should I be thinking more in terms of what the search engines are doing during those days than people? I will do what is best, I just am not sure about this.
scheduling for peak times
Great question, Steve! If you enjoy the weekends off, but you still enjoy twitter or Facebook, it might be a good time to tweet "highlights from this week," or something to that effect, to get more mileage from what you've already done. I'll be interested to see what the others say as I still feel brand new to this world of blogging on purpose!
