I think right now I'm publishing at a cadence of 4x per week with 3 relatively short posts, and 1 lengthier essay. This seems to run against the advice of the data team's recommendation, but I'm trying to prioritize getting more reps in and have more room to experiment. I do all of my planning the Sunday the week of, have all of my content lined up in a Calendar + drafts, and then I just schedule all of it on a Sunday. Any thoughts or advice from fellow writers?
I find it hard to believe that there is a one-rule-fits-all solution for how frequently to post, except to note that since newsletters are delivered by email, it's highly likely that you will lose subscribers if they get too many notifications from you. Other than that, it really depends on why you write and how you expect to engage with your audience. If you're keeping a public diary or publishing quick reacts to stuff that happens, once a week doesn't seem quite right. I want to do a mix of short and long posts, too, and I'm still trying to find a good rhythm that will keep me in people's minds, but also be sustainable for me. Right now, I'm going for once/3 days. We'll see how it works.
