That is impressive! How did you stay motivated to write and publish consistently?

To be honest, I was not too consistent. Even when it comes up to be around one article per week, sometimes I wrote 8 articles in a week, and sometimes I didn't write for a month. I'd love to do something like Chris Ferdinandi –writing a post per day–, but I don't think I'm close to that.

Consistency is so tough. Do you sit on any posts or just post them as fast as you write them?

I try to leave them at least overnight. Although the temptation to publish them immediately has won sometimes.
