Discussion: How often should you post?

Okay, so when I first started out with this whole book blog thing nearly 10 years ago (2012) I tried to post every day. I was very enthusiastic and I wanted to post as many reviews and articles as possible. This lasted about two weeks when I realised how hard it was for me to post decent, daily content and keep up with school work at the same time.

It was hard to keep up with other bloggers who always had new content and I realised I needed to find a blogging schedule that worked for me and wasn’t overly demanding. After all it is a hobby. 

I later decided I would post three times a week with at least one review a week. This was a doable amount of weekly posts for me and although I’ve been known to take a break or two from blogging when work has gotten on top of me, I always try to come back to the same schedule of three-ish posts a week. Sometimes more sometimes less but I always try to post something. If one week I’m really busy then I’ll at least post a Fun Fact Friday because I tend to feel guilty not posting anything.

Well in recent times I've been focusing on my career (Medicine) and navigating a pandemic which has put a lot of my content on hold. It has been hard to be as prolific as I was when I started out but that won't stop me from trying. 

How often do you think you need to post?
