How often do you blog? Do you think it's better to have 1 blog post per day or better to have 2-3 high quality blog post per week?
I usually update my sites with 2 posts every single day. I have had a lot of success with that method
Thank you so much for the feedback. Do you find that the content is over 1000 words each post or are they sometimes shorter?
HubSpot research found that "companies that published 16+ blog posts per month got almost 3.5X more traffic than companies that published between 0 - 4 monthly posts." That said, you've hit the nail on the head in your question. There's little point in posting rubbish. If you need to make a choice, go for quality over quantity.
No worries, Joe. I spend far too much time reading HubSpot. I'm currently working my way through their Inbound Marketing Certification. Here's the link to the content I referenced in case you want to have a look at some point... http://blog.hubspot.com/marketing/blogging-frequency-benchmarks
actually I just stack them up in my blog Queue and just pull them out when I think of it.
Thanks for the information... That sounds like a reasonable goal for me, but I might try to up it to 3-4 HQ per week.
Hi Joe, personally, when I first started out, I was writing three, 500-word posts per week. As my writing skills improved, my writing automatically became more in depth and I started to enjoy it.
These days, I put all of my energy into a single post. The post is usually somewhere in between the 2,000 -2,500 word mark, sometimes more.
I just concentrate on quality over quantity now. If I wasn't working, I would be able to produce three of these a week.
We all have our time constraints. I'd say just write the best quality post you can, publish, and then move onto the next.
I just blog when I feel like it Joe,I know that is not the correct answer but it,s how I cope with life here.
When you are first starting a website, it is good to be blogging as often as you can, as long as they are quality posts. After you start getting traffic and your site is doing well, you can scale it back some. I'm sure you will get all kinds of responses to this question. :)
Neil Patel a very successful entrepreneur was once asked "what do you do when you have finished a blog" his answer... "I blog again"

Do you think the Black Friday deal is worth it? Why or why not?
It is the best thing you can do for yourself Joe. Not just because of the money savings, but peace of mind, the ability to learn more and have the creativity to do more with your business. I wish you good fortune my friend,
Ken
Stupendous deal and well worth it Joe....in fact it would be worth it at 3 times the price. That's just under 900 bucks so take a look at this and see for yourself.... Social Media Marketing Jobs See what I mean ;-)
Mark
Of course it does! You will find yourself paying much less and you won't have to monitor any payments for a year! In the meanwhile, you can easily cover the subscription much easier with a few referrals.
Go for it! Do the maths and you will see that is 100% worth it!
Good luck
Gus
I took it last year and it saved me a lot of money, but it's recurring, so this year it saved me again a lot!
The black friday deal is an absolute MUST for anybody that is serious about Wealthy Affiliate and learning how to make money online for a couple different reasons....
You make a one-time payment of 300 dollars, which is an absolute steal for the information you are learning here and you NEVER have to worry about making another payment for an entire year.
This frees up ALL of your attention and allows you to focus everything into building out your website and learning how to cover the costs and begin profiting by the time your next payment comes along.
What sounds more enticing to you? Worrying about coming up with that 50 dollars every single month for 12 months, weighing the pros and cons of whether it is even worth it and when you will be making enough money to cover it? Or making a single one time payment of 300 dollars and being able to fully devote and entire year to bettering your future.
The black friday deal is the greatest bargain you could ever come across, much better then saving a couple hundred dollars on a tv or something like that.
My recommendation for those that are worried about dropping 300 dollars?
Find a way to get it done. You won't regret it. I
Hi, I understand that this deal is great for those members who get the deal in the Black Friday period. but how about other members who want to go yearly at any other time of the year. I commented on this issue on one of David Sweeney's recent blogs where I told him that the offer I give to any new referrals of mine is to refund them $75 from my $175 commission if they upgrade at any time. This means that they only effectively have to pay $284 for a years subscription. And they can do it every year if they decide to stay with the program. Everybody wins. WA get their money, I get my commission, albeit $100, and my referrals get a great deal.
I wouldn't necessarily disagree with what you're doing Ken, after all, it's your business and dollars so it's up to you.
What I would say though is this...
Although this is not network marketing, we should be setting an example to our referrals, and their referrals and so on, so I would personally be reluctant to perpetuate the model you are advocating.
We should be teaching them how to maximise their earnings, not how to discount the deal.
Kyle's discount is an accepted one because it comes under the label of the BF marketing phenomenon but I doubt very much he would be giving away commissions during normal trading times and in any case, if referrals can't see the value at the normal price of $359 I wonder if they will appreciate the full value of what we have here.
Just my thoughts obviously.

Hi Mark and thanks for your thoughts on the subject.
I am in total agreement with you when you say "if referrals can't see the value at the normal price of $359 I wonder if they will appreciate the full value of what we have here."
I'm certain that many members do see the tremendous value offered by the WA program but simply cannot afford to take the big step to the yearly membership, although in the long run they realise what great savings they would get.
The Black Friday deal gives these members a great opportunity and many do take up this generous offer. Many don't because it may be too close to the festive season and they have other priorities.
I would personally love to see every single member who joins WA, takes the initiative to go Premium and follows all the training, become successful.
And we all know taking out the yearly upgrade is a real commitment by the member to at least give it their best shot at success.
If the offer I put forward to any of my referrals can assist them in achieving their success then I'm more than happy to do it.
Can't fault any of that really......good luck and I hope you get lots of takers for your offer.
My last reservation would be that I hope other WA members don't feel that they have to start doing the same thing to compete with you otherwise we'll have a race to the bottom to see who can give a bigger discount/refund........we'll end up paying people to join then ;-)
I can see the benefit of offering many incentives for people to join, freebies, one to one trainings, hand holding etc but I'd draw the line at refunds.
Cheers Ken
Mark
I doubt that would happen Mark! Don't forget referrals only come from sources outside of this forum. And also, more importantly the WA referral program is only one of the multitude of avenues available for marketers to use in their IM businesses.
Hence the little wink at the end Ken :-)
Good having a debate with you, I enjoy it and come back any time!!
Mark
Well,I am off to bed now Joe.Catch up tomorrow if you want to and let me know how you are getting along here.
It saves a good deal of cash over a year. If you can afford to pay a lump sum, I think the deal it is well worth it.
I suppose it is a good deal Joe,however I am not in a position to afford it.What are your feelings about it?
I am kind of in the same boat. I feel like it's a good deal, but at this time of the year I can't afford it.

I have to say that Bloom is probably one of my favorite plugins. I use it a lot on my sites to create opt-in pages. It is simple how it works, but outcome of what it does it
TinyMCE, but I run it on my test website, I create with that one tables and different fonts, and copy the codes to my regular website
Now you have to wait again for 6 months before I have another good one... They are really exceptional... ;-)

2-3 high quality blog post per week Joe!
Consistency and quality is what you want - even if it's one post/week.
The longer the better 1000-2000 words/post
That seems to be the consensus. Thanks for the tip!
