Many bloggers start out writing week 4-5 quality posts. However, a few months due to lack of time or due to a lack of ideas, and then they gradually Weekly pure content can reduce the number of posts.
Connection posts are common on this issue (not yet optimal) solution? Instead, the plan and the time to write quality posts and sit and think bloggers would just post a few links to collect "link" on November 10, 2006, as the title said.That link provides a good read, even if that do not work on a regular basis. One you should be okay for a while each day may turn out that it is not connected posts. You must think of a reason to visit the blog readers eventually. But rather because they're interested they are in your opinion, because it respects the knowledge that you have a good idea as follows: They can help them in any way because the reader went on Delicious Digg (Digg) or pure links will not If you are looking for, I mean, you think?

IMESH,
It is me again. Wow, I must like to contradict you (sort of). In the case of trusted bloggers like Darren Rowse, Seth Godin, John Jantcsh, Guy Kawasaki and others whose blogs I rely on for pointing me in the right direction, I find links that they offer often very useful.
I would say that if I started placing link lists on my blog more than once a week though, it might bore people or turn them off.
We could agree that new bloggers without a good subscriber/reader base might want to hold off on the link lists until they hit the hundreds.
All the best,
Jay
PS: Thanks for stopping by.

Well Jay, our opinion is quite similar then. Once a week should be OK, I just think that some bloggers pump those posts 3 or even 4 times a week, and that is too much. I recently unsubscribed from Steve Rubel’s Micropersuasion blog for that reason.
I must agree with Jay above, but I understand the principle you are setting. It is true that without a good foundation of readers, your linking is really proving to be only self-reference. If that is true, then it may be better to post it on delicious instead.
However, even bloggers like kottke grasp my interest. Sure, some of the links are things that are just making their way around the blogosphere. But I use kottke as a filter of which of these things are actually interesting to spend my time reading.
Jennifer,
The idea of the intelligent filter of peers and mentors is the whole reason that Seth Godin and his team created Squidoo–to offer filtered content.
IMESH,
I agree with your reasoning for unsub’ing from Steve Rubel’s blog though. I have done the same for a number of other very influential bloggers because it was tantamount to Splogging.
Cheers to you both…
Jay
I've got mixed feelings on this topic. If the links that are posted all times and you sentence with the explanation should be kept to a minimum, I'd say. Personal opinions and insights, and also provide a link to another story, if you add another and to be worth, I think.
That most of my blog is - I my feed reader every day for 30-40 Related Blogs on search my favorite things to do, put an asterisk in my opinion and from them to 2-3 daily by clicking on the link! So, the role will be similar to those for the "intelligent filter" of the kind of me, do not think gatyiyi lot of blogs on a specific topic and the only one that is interested in the value of time reading the posts that do not consume.
How often do you really no, it then because I'm down to what and how much additional content linked to other blogs / articles that provide a way to think.
Interesting coincidence!
I just started to compose more link posts due to the fact, that I want to generate some links and trackbacks.
The main reason is, that I want to expand my readership and also noticed, that there is interest incertain news revealed in those link posts.
To be honest, those link posts did cost me more time to write than I estimated. The informations and links need to be very selective.
However I will test this. I always think that you should put everything on a trial perdio for at least 3 weeks.
I don´t clutter my blog. Major changes are always introduced by an explaining post.
Regards,
René
