How Much Content Is Enough? |

There is never enough content.

But you are whole and complete within.

Uh-oh.

Does this sound like a Zen riddle? Unanswerable. One answer cancels out the other answer. Making matters worse, I know you want a scientific, how-to study to get one clear answer to robotic-like follow all the way to a professional blogging career.

But you cannot get that answer here.

Follow this General Guideline

Publish one detailed blog post weekly for the entirety of your blogging career.

Publish at least one piece of content daily for your marketing channels for the rest of your blogging career.

Work off of these general guidelines. But be flexible. Life intervenes. Change arrives. Plans change. Strategies change. I have published multiple posts daily and once every 2 weeks for various stretches of Blogging From Paradise. I made both work.

But offering general guidelines lets you grasp some order, some rules, as a basic framework to follow. You want blogging guidance. I offer you blogging guidance.

The Secret Is that the Content Creating Timeline Never Ends Until You Decide to End It

Ask the question posed as the title of this blog post.

“How much content is enough?”

Instantly, you need to establish a timeline to answer the question accurately. How much content does one need to publish within a specific time frame to be considered enough?

The secret to creating enough content to drive:

organic traffic
blogging income

is to look past asking the question to:

fall in love with the process of creating targeted content
stretch the content creating timelines out to years….until you forget about the timelines to focus exclusively on the process and not what the process yields

Re-read the above 2 bullet points. I cannot lie; remaining true to each is at times a difficult process. But it is a do-able process all the more possible if a pro blogger drills these ideas into your mind with alarming repetition.

Stop asking the wrong question which yields the wrong answer.

Redirect your mind to following the process for the rest of your blogging career.

Look past unconscious self-sabotage.

Succeed by doing the proper inner and outer work.

Why Is this Question Impossible to Answer?

I have seen bloggers publish one post monthly to become wildly successful. Publishing one post monthly was enough for them.

I have seen bloggers publish 3 posts daily to become wildly successful. Publishing 3 posts daily was enough for them.

Blogging guidance comes on a case-by-case basis. What works for one does not work for another based on our personal unconscious mental blocks. Some make money via blogging fairly easily. Others find making money through blogging as difficult as trying to get a breath of fresh air while sitting at the bottom of the Mariana Trench. Why? The easy money maker had little unconscious resistance to making money; the one who struggled to make bank harbored tremendous unconscious resistance to making money.

The “How much content is enough?” question-answer is never identical for both those parties for the unconscious resistance is so vastly different.

Why Do I Offer the General Guidelines Above?

The world typically believes that one blog post weekly seems acceptable. I don’t make the rules. I just observe the general consensus.

I will break it down based on logical deductions.

Blogs are news portals. Being current is important. But since you are a single blogger sans a staff of 1000 journalists, readers generally expect to see at least one post weekly to remain current. Readers understand that you are one person and not 1000. Receiving 1 post weekly at a minimum sounds realistic to them. Readers remain current without being overwhelmed. Solopreneur bloggers keep blogs current without overwhelming themselves.

Let’s Get Back to the Time Element

Instead of asking “How much content is enough?”, think right-side up by saying:

“I have not given my content creation campaign enough time.”

That’s the secret. That’s how future pros think, feel and act. That’s how current pros think, feel and act.

Versus looking at a content volume as the key to unlocking consistent organic traffic and income, abundant-minded bloggers create more detailed content with greater consistency over an ever-increasing timeline.

Some do this unconsciously. Most need to mentally work at it. I needed to mentally work at it. I still do, being imperfect.

Create content consistently. Stretch out timelines. Would you ever ask this question as organic traffic and blogging income arrives?

Of course not.

Organic traffic and blogging income arrives by being prolific, consistent and mentally detached from the time element.

We already established that the answer varies for each person based on their level of unconscious resistance to success. No one knows how to measure that. No one knows how to answer this appropriately – or accurately – for individual bloggers.
