And certainly when I blog on sundays, as I sometimes do, I'd get a lot of readers.

And it turns out the best time to post a blog is Monday morning. So I vote for you to post Monday & Wednesday, because I want you to keep your readership because YOU'RE AWESOME. <br /><br />And if you want to read the post (it's short), here's the link: http://www.globalwrites.com/web/best-times-to-post-to-social-media/Jessihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17634783997278281829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-422555164465305734.post-26266797559701876492012-04-11T05:47:13.114-07:002012-04-11T05:47:13.114-07:00I haven't been as regimented as you for the la...I haven't been as regimented as you for the last 2 yrs of my blog schedule, but for me, I noticed Thursdays have less traffic and Mondays & Wednesdays seem to get more. *shrug* Could be just the blogs i follow, but my list on Google reader is more full earlier in the week, too. :)Jessica Lemmonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16388504462239939840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-422555164465305734.post-86253093786958812602012-04-11T04:38:12.851-07:002012-04-11T04:38:12.851-07:00I have no earthly idea how you've kept this up...I have no earthly idea how you've kept this up.

Twice a week is great, and I vote for Tues/Thurs. I've never managed to follow a very regular schedule with my blog, but I can tell you that readership is always low on Sat, nonexistent on Sun, and mostly steady throughout the week as long as I post early enough in the day, which you always do. <br /><br />Congratulations on being too busy making a living as a writer to keep blogging every day!Alexa Ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09980266579954005906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-422555164465305734.post-19848074363440372812012-04-10T04:12:30.843-07:002012-04-10T04:12:30.843-07:00Do what you've got to do!
