    How to write a blog post that people love to read (and still makes money and attracts traffic years later!)

    I spend years writing ‘news’ story blog posts, with new exhibitions and openings in the city I was living in. I was struggling to keep readers up, so I wrote more and more – up to 5 posts a day.

    Now, this isn’t the way it should be, and unfortunately, I learned this the hard way.

    Now, many years later, I know that writing 3 blog posts a month is also okay.

    I have more readers and I’m keeping them up, if not increase them month after month.

    If you’re having a hard time keeping your blog stats consistent and stable I have a secret to share with you. One month you really go for it with 50 blog posts and a lot of visitors, the next you publish two posts and see your visitor number drop.
