I think, if I were to be gone for 6 weeks that I'd still try and throw a short blog once a week. Given most of our success is tied to continuing to create new and unique content, this makes a lot of sense to me....of course generally speaking I'd have posts loaded and ready to go when I'm on vacation. You can also bring in a guest blogger once or twice for when you are gone.

Hi Sara,

I believe that telling your readers is always a good idea. As it can make your readers aware that you won't be able to post. And also gives them a deadline that when you will be back.

Most of the time, if you gone, I am you have access to the internet. How about just prepare some articles and post while your on vacation and answer a few comments. No one would know that the site has been neglected much.

I agree that telling or not telling depends on the posting frequency.

I agree with your words that the blog owners should not comment upon that they are not blogging for some days. It will leave a bad impression sometimes. Thanks for sharing.

Agree that ideally you should get someone to look after your site while you're gone - even just cleaning up spam comments. Telling people you'll be away for a while invites hackers and other lowlife to try and take advantage of your absence.

This is a good post and I too agree that it is the best to let your readers know that you would be away for a while.

A few other solutions...

Bring someone else in to hold down the fort while you're away...

Pre-write some "evergreen" posts that you can schedule to drop while you're away.

Personally, I'd combine your idea of giving readers a message with one of those.

Hello,

This is really a very good post. Even If its a "advance Post". But it would be really nice if we can just write some pros and cons of the tools we are using. For example I am using BlogJet, its a nice tool but have a some problem with getting the text format right.

What I like to do is write articles in advance and then take advantage of the ability to schedule when they get published. It depends though really on the whole content and audience of the blog. I try to post at least once a week of each of my sites - some though occasionally will go longer.

A lot of readers like continuity in a blog. They somehow get hooked on to the delicious content that a blogger gives them on a daily basis and faithfully come very day to check for the latest post. If they go hungry once they are then capable of searching for similar blogs with similar posts. And thats where the loss can hurt. The reader may never come back again and may even forget the url by the time you decide to post again without keeping your status updated.

Good reminder

The idea by orovo is great...In fact, that's what I intend to write in here before I noticed his comment. Simply have your posts pre-written and get someone to post it on your behalf while you're away. I can't think of a better way than this.

I personally believe that the best way is to have created posts in advance or to have someone guest post for you while you're away.

If you're posting daily a change to every second or third day probably won't matter so most readers and it'll take some load of the amount of posts you would need to prepare in advance.
