Blogging advice or a short bloggy quote:
While content is king, 80% of success is still just showing up. The reason Jewneric decided from the outset to be a group blog was to allow for the constant flow of original content. The more talented people we brought on board, the more often we would get new articles and the more often our readers would return to the site. This has proven to be true. We ask our contributors, now over 60 from around the world, to write about what they want, so long as it sticks to our theme: Somehow Jewish. We also ask that they write around once every two weeks. We don’t pressure anyone, we aim to ennoble and motivate our team to be passionate about writing and being consistent with their efforts. Slow but consistent growth over the past year has helped grow Jewneric into a Top 25 Jewish Blog.
