Is it just me or are some blogs getting really repetitive?

And I don't mean that one blog has the same content as another (that's true). I mean, I've noticed there are some bloggers who don't realize they sort of ..repeat posts. Like I've seen many bloggers make a "5 ways of getting traffic" and "5 ways of getting readers back" and "10 ways to get more readers" posts. Now they COULD be different, but more oft than not they're pretty much the same post. It's like "yes I get that participating in mybloglog will get you traffic AND readers AND readers back".

haha, i know what you mean on this one. sometimes it is helpful if i am just searching for a particular subject, but if i was a regular reader of a site i would probably stop reading it so much. i am so sick of making money blogs - i really liked your one blog about learning things - so much more refreshing! i visited your site and dropped my card - i think i was logged in as best of stupid, lol...you'll see it in your dashboard i'm sure. i hate how i have to have 2 seperate entrecard accounts, it really limits me! but i have to say in just the past week since joining my traffic is going up incredibly. i also met a someone who guest blogged for me on my site it might be love...how cool is that?

That's not uncommon because a blog about driving traffic....how many tips are there to do that seriously? Its the same for many no-direction blogs like money-making blogs.....There are so many clueless people who started such blog thinking they can share their money making tips to others... but in fact, all of them are more or less the same without anything new to say

There are more ways to drive traffic to your blog than you think and unless it is a fresh post most onsite readers won't read it. Repetitive posts are more for the sake of the feed readers than they are onsite readers.

LOL. I think maybe they forgot that they already wrote that post. That's why I always check my previous posts to make sure that I don't repeat information that I've already posted.
