I am interested to know how often everyone else posts on their websites and how long these posts are?
I've just been chatting to another blogger and he said that he posts a 3000 word post every single day and he does it all himself. He is in the online marketing niche so it is content that needs to be well written.
How on earth does someone do this? I just can't figure it out.
I wish I could write like that for my website each and every day but if I write a 3000 word post it will take me 2 full days to get it exactly right.
With keyword research, researching my topic, writing the content, adding images... there is just no way I can do a 3000 post every single day.
I am just interested to know what other people do.

Not as much as I'd like to! If I could I'd post every day but it's coming up with the content and writing it. Researching and writing takes a good while for good quality, truly informative articles. But it can be fairly easy to write about something you are very well versed in already and already know a lot of stuff about it. I can sometimes find I've written 1-2000 words when I'm writing about something I'm knowledgeable in before I even realize it. That applies for when writing answers and responses in the [b]Community Discussions[/b] here and on forums and things else where as well. But it's not the same as writing and creating something that isn't just straight forward talk and articles that have lots of other things within them maybe like images, diagrams and other such media, text formatting, links and what not. So it all looks good and is proof read and is a high quality article. This takes time to do and usually, the better quality the article, the more time it took to write it.
When blogging though, I'll usually have quite a few posts saved as drafts that I'm working on at any one time. Posts that I need and mean to get round to posting, and posts that I could possibly post when I'm out of ideas and posts that I'm not sure if I should post. But I usually have posts that I'm working on for a long period of time and sometimes it can even be weeks or months before I finally hit that Publish button!
I always try to go for 1000 words minimum today. There's a famous blogging saying that goes "[color=#0000CD][b]It's worth a thousand words[/b][/color]" that you'll see on many demo blogs for WP themes and those words are [b]words to live by[/b] when it comes to [b]blogging[/b]. We all know now how longer articles outperform shorter ones. That there is direct correlation between long articles of 1-3000 words over those that are 1-300 words! But of course, the subject I'm writing on might be done and covered in 300 words or less so what else can you add to an article to make it longer without filling it with filler content you know? It's a real issue that many bloggers deal with and most of them can't be bothered to wait, think up some stuff and just want to publish it there and then and then wonder why it's not ranking very high.
One can find many many ways to extend the length of an article you are writing. Just brainstorming it, forming more questions about it and putting them as your H3's etc and answering them. Searching that subject you're writing about and finding out more things about it you can put in that article to make it more informative and valuable to people. Soo many ways to extend article length when you put your mind to it. :)

I've posted here on SeoClerks and I think my longest was 1,800 words, but even that took a while. I knew what I wanted to write about and didn't think of how long it was going to be when I started. I might have been able to get it to 3,000 words if I stretched out the wording as much as possible, but when someone does that the text begins to be unreadable. And for anyone that hasn't read my posts, I like to get right to the point without a lot of fluff and pointless content
As for how often you should post, it's really up to you. I like to post at least 10 times a month and those posts are 800 to 1,200 words a piece. A lot of people will tell you that 400 word articles is enough for the search engines, but I want my readers to get all the info and feel satisfied with what they read. What's the point of giving them 400 words of content when it needs 800+ to be explained well. I never understood people when they complained about their 400 word articles not getting the traction they thought they deserved lol
If I were to do one extremely detailed post per day, I'm pretty sure I could get it to 3,000 words. It would just take a lot of time and I'd have to rewrite sections a few times and add in new info each time. Articles that size are pretty tough to do
