Ideally how many to start?
 

Thats number of posts. When starting a blog how many posts would initially be good to start with... 5? 10? 15?

Thanks

10 should be fine for a splog, 5 could work for a real blog.

Don't forget the pics! |waves|

so if I have the number of posts per page set to 8.. wuld a full first page be OK to start with and then just keep updating regularly?

It really depends. I don't even think with splogs as you can have pretty much however many posts you want when you load in the feeds.

With a hand written sales blog, I would say 10 to start submitting to directories and setting up link trades although I submit to technorati, feedburner, google and yahoo immediately after my first post.

If your doing something along the lines of a real blog, even if it's adult slanted, I start submitting to the more mainstream directories after about 7 posts. A few will reject you for not enough content but those I just submit to a couple months later.

I usually start with about ten or so....

Thanks for the input guys, as you all know a bit more than me when it comes to blogging.
