One caveat for me is that sometimes, even after I decide I'll only post on certain days and not others, I'll really want to write and end up publishing it anyway. Does anyone else go through this or do you just schedule it for a future post?

And thanks @modestmoney for feeding the ego a bit :) 

Oh, and thanks @eric for the link to the other thread (I really need to start searching before I start new threads...).  That was very helpful too.

M-W-F works.  I post daily since that is how I started and what everyone is used to, but there are successful bloggers that post way less frequently! 

But you do feature a ton of guests posts, Crystal.. So it is always a nice mix.

I have a pretty sweet setup with my wife and I both posting, because we can alternate days (which works well).

Ultimately, it's all about how much you can handle. I think 3x per week is the average for a good site. Something as little as 1x per week will make it difficult to grow. Good luck in making your decision.

On my other sites, I have less of a formal schedule and that works as well. 

I'm sorry...that was a really long way of saying that you should do what works for you. 

Basically they suggest posting 3 times per week (plus a roundup) on M-W-F format and spend the rest of the time I would posting the two additional posts to networking and monetizing.  They suggest those two extra posts could be guest posts on other blogs, too, which is a good point.

I like the idea but am nervous about changing the mix but am intrigued by the idea, especially after seeing this: http://diythemes.com/thesis/ho.....your-blog/.  Anyhow, I apparently have a lot to say although I imagine I could spend less and/or more focused time as long as I'm regularly updating the site.

I'd really appreciate any thoughts from the group.
