I am going to start posting to my neglected blogs, as i have been busy.

They are Wordpress and blogger blogs.

QUESTION:
a)How often should i be posting to the blog, from a Search Engine Optinization point of view.... so it looks like the blog is active?

How many posts a week?/month? Approximatley ?

b) I wish to put keyword articles on each post. How many words approx should these articles be?

Generally, like all content, it should be as often as you can manage and if that means two or three times a day then do it. (If it means two or three times a week, do that).

Using a site like http://www.blogpulse.com will show -- for chosen keywords -- just how quickly a posting gets recognised, although from experience, "hosted" blogs such as TypePad and Blogger will get more notice than self-hosted blogs, simply because Blog Pulse may not recognise your blog as a blog, even if it is produced by blogging software like Wordpress.

As for length, try to keep it less than 250 words and perhaps use a keyword density tracker like the one at http://www.justwebcontent.com/content-tools/keyword-density/ to keep track. Aim for no more than around 5% on any keyword phrase; I think keyword densities of 15% look unnatural and are hard to maintain.

The general rule is that if it reads well, it will do well: Google's latest algorithim actually reinforces the readability aspect of content, partly because machine-written or even bought-in content is usually rushed and poorly written. JustWebContent.com also have a readbility analyser at http://www.justwebcontent.com/content-tools/readability-analyser/

If you write good post 2-3 good posts weekly are sufficient, more over try to make a reader base.

Stick to a good frequency. Say if you could post twice/thrice a day. Do it regularly without fail. Orlese if you could manage even 3 posts within a week time, maintain that frequency. Generally speaking daily one post would be better and easy to do.

I would aim for about three times a week. That updates your blogs frequently but without becoming too much of a burden on you.

Hi,

I have found that one post per day will get you a good amount of readers and visitors. People will visit your site everyday if you post everyday because they will be excited about what you have to post next!

Thanks,

IBW13
