When you publish posts on your blog impacts the level of traffic it receives. Remember that blogger orders posts according to the time you actually start writing it. So if you save a post with the SAVE NOW button on Monday and publish the post on Tuesday, the post will appear under the date heading of Monday. To counteract this, copy and paste the body of the saved post into a newly created post and publish.
Think about your internet habits as well as the habits of blog readers. When do you have access to the internet, when do readers access the internet? Installing analytics on your blog from day one will help you gauge the habits of readers. It is reasonable to assume that the majority of readers are 25-40 and working behind a desk or in a cubicle somewhere. With that in mind, they are most likely to be surfing the internet during the hours when they should be working. say between 9-5.
I write a post in the morning somewhere between 8-10 a.m., then another between 3-5 p.m. This way I can keep my readers interest throughout the work day and chances are readers will look at my blog again when the get home from work. As a general rule, readership tends to dip on the weekends, most likely because readers are out doing other things, so I only publish one post a day on the weekends.
