Do you stick to a schedule?
How often do you post and do you think it's important to be regular?
I have always posted to a consistent 'schedule'. It's ranged from every other day, every 3 days and currently I post daily.
I was a bit scared of posting daily at first as I thought that not everyone would see each post, but then I started putting my recent posts below the post so those that were interested in the rest of my blog could still easily read. I find my page views have doubled since posting daily!

I post daily too. I don't know how it's helped my page views because I started daily posting about a week after launching my blog. I tend to schedule posts in advance and write when I feel like it so I'm not putting pressure on myself to produce a post every day. I think if I did that it might turn into blogging for the sake of it and the quality of my posts would suffer.
I have a widget that links to other posts too.
I know this topic can divide people so I'm interested in everyone's responses!

I blog 3 times a week on the same days; Mon, Wed & Fri, and the posts always go live at 6pm (thank you scheduling!). I'd love to post daily but I just don't have the time to commit to it. I do like the odd 'every day for a month' challenges, but they are so challenging that I'm worn out and left with major bloggers block for a while after. I try and pre-plan my posts so that I'm never stuck staring aimlessly at a blank page for hours on end! I'd say it's super important to have a schedule and stick to it, that way your readers get used to when new content is coming up, like tuning into your favourite tv show when it's on. My page views are more consistent when I adhere to my schedule! Sarah  |

see.. sometimes I just can't stick to a schedule.. like school gets quite hectic!
I'm trying to blog every other day. I wont say that to my followers either because I'll find my self not sticking to my schedule bcus of busy-ness. If I see that the following week is to packed with school stuff.. I'll blog in the weekend instead and save it as draft to post it later that week.
Daily posts would be so cool but I really don't have the time!

I would love to blog every day but I just don't have the time. I try to blog around 3-4 times a week. Really I just need to sit down and write a load and schedule them. Since I returned back from holiday I've been writing and posting 'as and when' and feel really disorganised!
How do you guys that blog daily fit it in?

I fit it in by being very motivated, motivated and organised haha.
I have a calendar where I write down when I am going to post what, I also have a list of posts ideas. I take my photos in bulk when I can and try to write in bulk, usually writing 3-4 on days off work and then editing the night before, then scheduling for 9am the following morning.
I have loads of ideas for posts so I don't think there's danger of me running out. I actually have to many posts and lately have had to put 2 up a day so they don't become to irrelevant.
Anytime I'm at home, I'm basically blogging. I don't really watch TV and if I do, I'll watch while blogging. It's not uncommon for me to have netflix on my Macbook on my desk while I'm blogging on my desktop.

I blog 3 times per week on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 7am.
With a full time job I find it hard to post daily as I tend to write my posts bit by bit, adding to the draft and then I write the full post usually on a Sunday.

I'm very much like you Corinne~ I like to be really organised and plan what I'm writing so I always have new content to post. I also have a lot of drafts of new posts and I'm always adding to them and editing them before they're published. I aim to post at least three times a week but sometimes work does get in the way (I work both day and night shifts so there are days where I'm just sleeping because I've been working all night) so sometimes I will write three posts and set them to post on different days during the week so I can keep to a schedule.
