Stuart, I don’t know what else to say besides that you’re a rock star. I love your posts – I just honestly don’t know if I have enough to say each day.

I relate to Michael’s point about meatier posts, though I feel I’m going the opposite way. When I started out, my posts were 800-1K+ words with multiple citations – they were mini-dissertations. Now, I feel like I get more interest, generate more traffic (which, frankly, leads to more ad clicks), when I write shorter/1-idea kind of posts. I hope Trevor is right that we’re getting more into the “steak” and less into the “sizzle,” but I’m not sure.

And Nick makes an excellent point about the content you’re writing about. I don’t want to play down our celebrity-watching brethern, but could there be a connection to the amount of ideas and the infrequency of posting? (i.e. The more you have to connect different dots, the longer it takes to churn out a post.) There must be a graphical representation for this…

Another way to think about it: Here are some factors I hear from you:
-How you write (Stuart)
-The depth of what you have to say (Carlos, Michael, Trevor)
-The subject you’re writing about (Nick)

If you are writing about something like fashion or celebrity gossip, one post a day even will get you nowhere.

I almost post every day although I miss a day here and there. I write about food though. Cooking and eating are a part of my life every day. I think my readers seem to enjoy having new food porn to gawk at every day

I think how often you write is in some ways hinged on what you write.

Happy Honeymoon amigo!
