If you want to be noticed as a blogger – you have to blog.
It would seem like a reasonably easy equation, but how much do you have to blog to be really noticed, if noticed is what you want to be.
Well it would appear that the answer according to Technorati is at least 2 to 4 times a day, and if you want to be really, really noticed you have to blog more than 10 times a day.
Well, there is little chance of me getting to 10 a day, perhaps I should just aim to be one of the 22% of top 5000 bloggers who write things that are so good that writing less than one post a day is good enough.
I still think that quality is better than quantity – but then I would, I don’t have a lot of quantity.
I quite like the idea from Micro Explosion Media of the meal verses snack ratio.
Personally, I try for three posts a week and employ my meal verses snack ratio with those three posts (one meal, two snacks).
I suppose that’s about what I do. Perhaps a few too many snacks recently though.

Do you really need to be in the top 5000? I don’t think I could give the time to blog 10 times a day. Sometimes 10 times a month is a challenge. The only way I feel to acheive this is with multiple authors. I also don’t like keeping up with blogs with 10+ posts per day. Am I a luddite?

I don’t know Stu. How is success measured. I suppose that if you want to get paid for blogging you need to be in the top something or other. If money isn’t the motivation then I suppose that it depends on what your motivation is.
