Show Your Reliability With Weekly Returning Offerings
Lorelle VanFossen is great. If you’re the least interested in the WordPress community you know this. She’s got a great blog, she is a great interview subject, and she does a great job giving us the weekly WordPress recap over at The Blog Herald. The latest one went online yesterday.
Other blogs should learn from Lorelle, and The Blog Herald, in regards to the WordPress Wednesday News segment. By having a returning column on a given day you’re signaling reliability, and that’s certainly a good thing, especially online, where sites and blogs come and go.
Something to think about for your blog, surely.
With that I bid you a happy Easter. I’ll be back on Tuesday next week. Another thing slated for next week is the new Wisdump design, in public beta. How about that, huh?
Wow! Thanks for the kind words and endorsement.
You’re right. Having something that makes it worth returning for keeps people coming back for more. A regularly scheduled “program” works as does article series.
But there is more to just doing the same old same old all the time. You have to keep pushing it and making it interesting, and not just a dependable staple. I think of the television shows that have lasted seven to ten years or more. It’s hard work turning out the same stuff over that much time. After five or seven years, it’s hard to think of new stuff each week. But keeping it interesting keeps them coming back.
