It's an intersting discussion which I decided to add to, on the MarketingProf blog itself. After reading the article and the comments I come to the conclusion that the frequency of your posts should correlate directly to the ambitions you have for your blog. If you want to be in the top hundred blogs on Technoraiti, for example, you need to post a lot. --Penelope I took a look at the link (first comment in this string).

If you want to be in the top hundred blogs on Technoraiti, for example, you need to post a lot.

It's sort of addictive - particularly if the new post-to-be has already formed in your mind. I'm enjoying your blog and would be perfectly happy backtracking on your week-day posts during my weekend hours.

One thing I did when I first started getting comments was to comment to the comment. I thought it was a polite way to acknowledge the presence of my new commenters. Plus I had seen it done on other dog blogs like <a href="http://markandcream.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Fur Kids in Hong Kong</a> and I liked the tone it generated. If I know a blogger comments to comments, I will go back to see what he or she said. If they don't usually comment, I will still check to see if my brilliant riposte generated some appreciation. Just a little obsessive. :) Some bloggers get hundreds of comments per entry and I wouldn't want to have to respond to all of them, that's for sure. Since I am still at the meagre handful of comments stage, I don't have to worry about that. Interesting post link above.
