If you ever had any blogs out there that you really forgot to pay attention to, then you might have noticed a trend, those lazy bloggers out there that forget about a blog for months at a time will slowly see their traffic  diminish.  There was always a debate among SEO professionals whether it can be a bad thing to update too often.

Reduced Traffic from Lazy Blogging
If you stop blogging on a blog for a month, I can guarantee that you will slowly see your traffic diminish.  This will continue on a slow downward slope. Google will slowly put less importance on your content pushing it slowly to the back. Recovery? Simple, just start blogging again. Often bloggers have been even able to capture even more traffic then when they were daily blogging.

My Own Lazy Blogger Blogging
I’ve had a few blogs that for whatever reason, usually a lack of traffic and money I’ve just stopped blogging on.  I’ve noticed the downward trends as my traffic slowly but surely gets less and less.  Write a few posts and traffic picks up again.  Why is this?  As I said, Google will start to put less importance on your blog if you rarely update.
