00:25 David Blackmon: Hey everybody welcome to WP The Podcast brought to you by WP Gears I’m David Blackmon.

00:34 Tim Strifler: And I’m Tim Strifler.

00:35 David Blackmon: Today we’re going to talk about how often you should publish blog posts. Loaded question obviously. It’s gonna it’s  gonna depend on a few factors and Tim and I’ll cover that today. Tim you want me to start this episode off? 

00:51 Tim Strifler: Yeah go for it!

00:52 David Blackmon: All right! The quick answer to how often should you publish blog post is how often can you create blog posts!  I’m  jokingly saying that you know the phrase content is king. Is there for a reason you know content producing content for organic search results and traffic is definitely the long play. It’s definitely the best play so if the more blog posts that you can create the faster that Google’s going to see you as an authority on a specific topic. So you know how many blog posts can you create. I was Simmi joking but it’s the truth initially we started out with one blog post per week we committed to consistently writing one blog post a week a thousand words. And it changed our business now we produce several blog posts per week because the value is just there for us so I don’t want to take this whole topic and want Tim to talk about it some too.

02:00 Tim Strifler: Yeah yeah no but David you’re exactly right and I 100% agree and there’s not really a right answer there’s not a number you know or there’s not a you know how often answer for that, because there’s a lot of factors. But I think a couple of key things is you want to be consistent which is what you mentioned. David consistently writing blog posts and then also you want to make sure they’re really good quality so
you don’t want to blog just to blog. So that you’re publishing something you want to make sure it’s meaningful and it’s valuable and it solves a problem of your ideal customer your ideal audience and then you want to make sure you cover it well. And it’s good quality and it’s not thrown together in just a paragraph and you want it to look really good too. And not be just riddled with grammar and spelling errors and stuff like that so if you can do those things to where you can be consistently publishing it. A blog post that’s quality and valuable and you can do that only once a week then do that and stick with it. But if you can consistently do it twice a week well then get on that schedule make sure you keep the quality up and all of that you need. Again you don’t want to just publish blog posts for the sake of publishing blog posts you want to make sure that they’re they’re adding value and they’re they’re solving some sort of a problem well.

03:13 David Blackmon: There you go folks how often should you publish blog posts? As often as you can! Consistently put out
good useful content so I wish it was five posts a week, but it’s not it depends on your company your brand your bandwidth. A lot of factors so tomorrow we’ve got another great topic where is the best place to buy a domain name Tim..

03:35 Tim Strifler: Take care bye bye.

03:36 David Blackmon: Until tomorrow we’ll see you then.
