Is Post Quality or Quantity More Important?

I received an email from a reader nameed Mike who asks a really good question about quality vs quantity and how that also ties into the possibility of making money online with your blog. In order for a blog to make money online, does the blog author need to focus more on quality or quantity? Here is a copy of the email.

Hello Garry,

As a new blogger, I quite frequently visit your site (and linked it in my own) for tips and strategies. My current blogs are suchadowner.com for personal bitching, and acousticbeginner.com for free guitar lessons. I would like to expand and create more blogs, but had a few questions for you. Sorry if you have already addressed these.

With my current blogs, the primary focus isn’t making money, although it would be nice. I want to create blogs that focus mainly on generating revenue, and I was wondering about quality vs. quantity. What is more important for a blog that is focused on monetization?

Also, you update quite frequently–I was wondering if you ever feel like you are “beating a dead horse” on certain topics, especially if you can’t think of a good fresh topic. Is it better to just build off what you have already introduced rather than try to create fresh blog topics every day? Anyway, I really enjoy your site and youtube vids.

Thanks.

In order for a blog to make money or have any form of success quality has got to be there. No matter how much volume a blog pushed out on a daily basis, if the quality of the blog is poor, then it will not attract people and traffic. As you know, people and traffic is the element needed to make money online. 

Quantity all depends on the type of blog you create and what the current expectation is of the people reading the blog. In most cases quantity does have an influence on how much a blog can make simply due to the fact that there are more pages that can be used for monetization.
