Do You Believe In Blog Holidays?
So for those of you who dont know what a blog holiday is, its the day that most bloggers take off during the week. Usually I take either Saturday or Sunday and some times both days off during the week but that depends on how the week is going for me. Lately ive taken quite a bit of time off but now im trying to return to my normal schedule.
The idea about a blog holiday is normal and most blogs do take a day or two off per week and some more depending on how many posts they do a week. The idea about a blog holiday is to give your mind a break and your readers too.
What tends to happen is that when you write new and interesting posts every day, sooner or later you’ll feel that youre running out of ideas. What happens is that sometimes you only have one or two tag worthy posts a week. That means that posts that are so good that people will link to them. The more you write, you’ll use up your tag worthy posts faster. You want to save your posts and so usually you would take a day or two off.
Aside from that, the idea of taking a day or two off means that you give your brain some rest. That allows you to spend time with the family and in that process come up with more ideas. The best ideas come around when you least expect it so taking a day or two off actually helps you become more productive in terms of creativity and helps you come up with more ideas. Its an interesting idea if you think about it and I’m sure those of you that take a day or two off actually notice that you come up with your ideas during that period.
So my whole point of this post is. Do you guys think that taking a day off is important and how many of you actually take a day off. Do you think it makes you more productive? I’d be interested in finding out. Well you guys have a great week ahead and I’ll catch you tomorrow!
I dont take a day off as such , infact saturdays and sundays I tend to spend more time on the blog and blog research ….As a blogger our minds should be constantly looking for inspirational blog posts or blog ideas…..
Oh yeah. Thats definitely true. Taking the day or two off is just a reason to not create an information overload but that period of time helps me come up with some great ideas so Ive always done it. I’m inspired by your 7 days a week spirit though, thats not for the faint at heart.
yes, why not.
Every damn guy should have holidays and so bloggers do..
Happy Holidays
I’m somewhat divided on this topic. While it is certainly good to give your brain time to rest a bit and spending time away can help you come up with ideas, the more you take time off the easier it becomes and pretty soon it’s almost hard to post something. I try to NOT have days without posts, although I recently have only had a couple of posts per week due to not having time to post.
I can understand why one would take a blog holiday. For me, since I post only once a week on my blog, nearly every day is a blog holiday.
Those who get tired of blogging by Saturday and Sunday, should work on Saturday and Sunday posts throughout the week so that they have something that is posted on those days.
Yes i believe in “Blog Holidays” n thy should take… after doing whole week work, creating n sharing new thoughts… one has right 2 take holiday…
