Thanks to Eric Kintz for posting an entry I’d been thinking about doing myself since last year:

Why Blog Post Frequency Does Not Matter Anymore

My particular favorites:

  • #3- Loyal readers coming back daily to check your posts is so Web 1.0
  • #4 - Frequent posting is actually starting to have a negative impact on loyalty

My daily web reading is mainly facilitated through RSS feed subscriptions (point 3), and I have actually unsubscribed to several feeds who just posted too often (point 4). They were clogging up my RSS reader, and making me feel constantly behind. So out they went!

Generally speaking, I think the frequent-post mentality is old school, so please don’t do it. I might unsubscribe.
