I expanded the number of bloggers on my blog but the frequency is still about the same - but traffic is up about 20%. I believe that's because of the quality of the authors that I've enlisted to help... they're top-notch. There's usually a single post per day on my blog - where Compendium has 5 or 6 posts daily, yet my blog has twice the traffic. I love Chris, but I'll disagree re: frequency being king. Quality is king... and if quality includes your personality, even better! Chris needs to keep his eye on conversions, and he'll find that conversions go with quality... most of the frequency is just noise and is lost on the audience. If I do a search and find a site, but that side doesn't have the answer I was looking for... I'm gone. That's why bounce rates are so high on search traffic. You have a split second to grab and retain the visitor's attention. If you do that with crap content, say goodbye to the visitor and goodbye to the conversion. .-= Douglas Karr´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/DouglasKarr/~3/CKzyIdZYlNY/" rel="nofollow">Is Google Really Trying to Make the Web Better?</a> =-.
