When I began blogging I was simply a babeblogger - as in pretty nude pic linked to a gallery and babes/site name clickable...
Yahoo loved me Google never put me higher than page 10 plus lol...
A few weeks reading the stuff here on the forum (2005 - when we were a tiny little outpost lol) and I increased blog posts to between 100 and 250 - Google now likes me and strangley yahoo has dropped me down the list a bit...
Could be a lot more factors than amount of words obviously...
However - Pam made an interesting point (doesn't she always

) a while back when she ran some kind of poll or feedback with her visitors - none seemed to bother with the text at all!!!
So you have to find a nice balance between the spiders and the surfers...a balance that is that works for you - trial and error with say a few blogs each with different and varying amounts of text...
To be honest I reckon 500 words plus 5 times per week is overkill - if ya writing is crisp with a few natural keywords sprinkled about - a couple of hundred should be more than enough...
As an aside my gf has just started writing erotic stories...pretty good too lol...
I popped one onto a MILF blog of mine a couple of days ago that I rarely went over 100 word blog entries...
I'll be interested to see (1) how it's received by the surfers and (2) if it pushes the blog up the serps at all...
It's 1500 words and very risque God love her...
And I want to know who the young builder in the story is - dirty fucker
