Daily updated blog get a lot of traffic ?

I think most of you already read / heard from someone or some other site saying / writing about updating your blog daily / frequently because if you post to your blog daily you’ll see an increased number of your site visitors (of course most of them are search engine unless your site already has a returning visitors). But after testing this on my site (for this month), the above condition doesn’t apply to this site.

As you already know that in this month i rarely post something on my blog here (24 posts for this month) which is caused by the recent earthquake in taiwan which caused major internet connection problem in Asia. But let’s keep that aside shall we ? Because i’m not going to talk about it anymore :-P

And, thanks to that problem .. i can see how is my blog doing if i’m not writing on it for several days. At first i notice a small traffic drop, but instead of writing a new post i keep waiting for it (by playing game) .. and it goes on like that (and eventhough i post something new, i only post uninteresting article and i’m pretty sure no one care to read it)

And guess what ? after a few weeks doing this .. i saw an increased traffic to this site (and i’m sure it’ll be higher than the previous month (i’m getting 20869 Unique Visitors for December 2006) .. because this screenshot was taken before the end of this month) .. and most of those visitors are came reading / looking (i don’t know if they truly read my article or no) at my previous month article or my early article

And the conclusion is (judging from the above condition), eventhough you write something new everyday on your blog, there’s no guarantee you’ll get an increased traffic to your site. But i don’t know whether this condition also apply to your website or not ;-) .. so that’s why the best thing to do is always tried it first and see if the above condition also appy to your site :-)
