I think putting out too much material can be overwhelming for readers. I find that the blogs whose writers post just once or twice a week are the ones I read religiously and look forward to.
It’s okay. I think it’s a good question and I said, no, writing every day doesn’t mean your blog will thrive. In order to have a thriving blog, we have to interact in a meaningful way and that means we have to support the blogs that support us. Unless, of course, our blog is for information purposes or we are selling something to someone, then it may be different. Perhaps it comes down to relevant content, whatever the genre of the blog.
Oh, you brought up a very good point in that we need to support other blogs as well in order to continuing growing our own. I for one am guilty of not doing just that and hope to change that over time.
I do post everyday, I think if it helps me, then it could someone else. I write a lot in advance and whatever is on my heart. And I even go back and read what I wrote last week or month even year. It may be different with everyone.
It just flows from years of not writing for various reasons including grief and disappointment. I know He is faithful so I want to be but I have more rest and peace than ever.
I think writing every day helps … maybe not posting them every day. I loved the accountability of the #Write28Days and knowing that I had committed to posting daily made me do it. But as someone mentioned … the quality does suffer — unless you are a professional journalist.
Quality vs quantity. I’d rather post once a week with something that followers want to read instead of posting daily and have followers delete it.

I can relate to that. I follow a few blogs that put out more than one posts each day. I find it difficult to read them and I’d end up not ready any.

Oh my, I am so sorry to hear that. I tried to go into the Poll settings and see if there was a way to change that but I saw no options to do that. 😦

I think many of us are guilty of it and it’s a fine balance, depending on our objectives whether we need to interact or if we have time to.
