How many blogs I should publish at the start of my blog before publish

[orangeversion]

Can you guys tell me how many blogs I should publish at the start of my blog before publishing the website?

You can begin publishing posts on your blog before you submit it for indexing, there is no set requirement for how many posts to publish before you do that though. The more content you have when it is first crawled can help Google find where it belongs in their overall results. You can see why it is better to delay indexing until it can be competitive though.

New content may be given a temporary boost if it is seen as new and useful so submitting it too early does you no favors. Easier to sift down and work up than to start down and then try to move up.

Until you have sufficient content you may consider using robots.txt to discourage crawling, then when you have a validated GSC account, change that robots.txt file and submit it for indexing when you feel it is ready to go public.

My impression was that the question was about how much content a new site should have before it goes live at all. It’s a good food-for-thought question. Presumably you want humans to become regular followers of your blog, and they're more likely to do that if their first visit already shows a representative sampling of the subjects you'll be writing about, and your prose style.

One thing you should do ahead of time is figure out how often you’re likely to post new content. You don’t necessarily have to say anything about it on the site, but it gives readers some idea what to expect: is this a site I check first thing every morning, or once a week, or every now and then when I happen to remember its existence? If your blogging platform allows you to do so, make up dates for that first batch of posts so it looks as if they came out with your chosen time spacing instead of all at once.

Echoing lucy24 and not2easy:

One "blog" is all you need to start. On the other hand you need to have a plan to KEEP blogging on a regular basis, as the content is fresh, as unique as possible, and serves the user/visitor well. And that plan includes REGULAR updates (blogs) as frequently as possible to keep interest high, not only by the search engines, but by the intended audience as well.

How frequent? Can't tell you. Also can't say how many you need to even get started.

I will relate that (static site, not a "blog") started with 6 pages, is now 800 pages (and several thousand images, video, audio as well) and done over a 20 year period. Still going strong. (side note: the 800 pages are often 300-500 pages in length if PRINTED OUT, so nothing shabby, thin, or "quick").

Put enough info/work on the project and set it free as soon as possible, and KEEP ADDING to it as often as possible.

Content is the King!

There is no number, you can publish as many blogs you want. The more content you publish, the more traffic you get on your website.

According to me, initially post at least 1 post every two days. And after some time, increase this to 1 post a day. Consistency is very important.
