Over the past 5 days I have shown you the strategy known as Not Posting At All. So, while it seemed like I did nothing at all, I was proving a case.

I suggest practicing this strategy once in awhile, with a one, two, or three day break rather than five. I have had to remove some blogs from my reader because I log on after only one day and have 15 posts to read on one blog. It takes me forever to scroll down, not even reading. I think good content deserves an extra day to breathe, to build comments, once in awhile.

What type of posting strategy do you use to maximize effectiveness and efficiency?

Link love is a great way to tip readers onto helpful, informative, useful or simply hilarious information elsewhere. It is also a good posting strategy for when you’re lazy/efficient/effective/riding on someone else’s work/dedication/coat tails. So what if you don’t want to put in the leg work to achieve results that keep people coming back for more? Someone else does! Make them feel appreciated by pointing people their way.

Now, I’m going to send out some link love to Millionaire Mommy Next Door. I don’t know what my deal with Mommy blogs is; I’m in my 20’s and haven’t trusted children since my brief stint as a waitress at Red Robins, and a four year term coaching 5 to 11 year olds in ice hockey. Millionaire Mommy Next Door is more about Millionaire than Mommy, and lately I have been reading really insightful posts over there. The post I am referring to specifically today is How to Find Your Zingers. It’s a writing exercise which involves making lists of 100. I like making lists, and if you do too, I encourage you to make lists of 1000, or even 10 000.

Hmmm. If I’m so lazy, why and how can I make lists of 1000?

Well, maybe you should just listen to Jen Smith and try the exercise as she describes it.
