I try to post daily. However, I am on vacation, and do not believe in advertising the fact that I am not living in my home right now. So, while I have been writing regular posts, I have not been publishing them. And, I will not publish them until I return home.
So, there will be a record of my thoughts while I have been traveling, but posted after the fact.
What I have noticed these few days while I have not been publishing, and in the past, when I have not published regularly, is that my readership goes down when I do not post regularly.
Really, this does not worry me too much. I know of only two people who regularly read my blog, and only one of those comments, but only sporadically. The other does not write comments, but discusses the blog with me, so I know she reads the blog.
I receive the rare comment from someone unknown to me.
When I look at the information about my readership, it makes no sense to me: What blogs are read, who the audience is, where the audience is. Usually the audience is predominately in a non-English speaking country. And the blogs that are read are often older blogs, so I know the readers are not following me chronologically. The "readers" are randomly clicking on this blog. I suspect it is being "browsed" by automated browsers in foreign countries.
Well, I blog for me. I would like comments and acknowledgements, but I blog for me. I do not care who is or is not reading the blog. I blog for me.
