   Hmm…never thought I posted so much. Thanks.

5. Pete @ biblemoneymatters July 3, 2008 12:38 pm

   sweet - i’m number 16. thanks for the list - very interesting how some of the biggest bloggers really posted a lot.. 172 posts for freemoney finance? wow.

6. That One Caveman July 3, 2008 1:03 pm

   Thank you for including me, but my blog’s name is actually One Caveman’s Financial Journey. My name is That One Caveman.

   Seems there are a lot of one-a-day or one-a-weekday (like me) bloggers out there, but only a handful of true multiple-per-day bloggers. Interesting stats and thanks for sharing!

7. Dorian Wales July 3, 2008 1:11 pm

   Welcomed initiative. Good work! I’d be interested in another metric while you’re at it. I wonder how many words on average each post had?

   Regards,

   Dorian

8. The Shark Investor July 3, 2008 1:11 pm

   Wow, that’s an interesting list, thanks for posting. I didn’t know I’ve posted 13 times

9. rocketc July 3, 2008 1:16 pm

   wow. FMF is just amazing.

10. Sean July 3, 2008 1:29 pm

    Caveman - your name has been corrected, I should have caught that.

    Dorian - I thought about it, tried to dismiss it, until you reminded me.

    I’ll make another update if there are new blogs that meet the criteria.

11. Curt July 3, 2008 2:07 pm

    Very interesting list. I don’t see my blog, so I guess I’m not in your RSS reader. Although I agree with your idea that the more you post the more readers you will have. It sets you apart from the rest of the pack. But I think too many posts can also get into trouble if your posts lose quality or are less conversational.

12. Sean July 3, 2008 2:41 pm

    Hi Curt, you are in my reader, but I put it off initially because of the non-standard navigation. Sorry, your site will be included in the next refresh.

    (I think the only other pfblog whose structure threw me for a loop was Mapgirl’s Fiscal Challenge…)

13. Frugal Dad July 3, 2008 3:20 pm

    Thanks for including me. I experimented mid-month with posting twice a day, but it just didn’t work out for me with a FT job and other writing gigs. If I can ever do this full time I’ll definitely ramp up the postings-per-month.

14. Moneymonk July 3, 2008 4:20 pm

    thank you, I try to post at least once a day!

15. Financial Goal July 3, 2008 4:27 pm

    Thanks for adding my blog. I never knew I posted so much.

16. Penelope @ Our Fourpence Worth July 3, 2008 5:21 pm

    Wow, what a cool idea. Thanks for including my blog!

17. Lazy Man and Money July 3, 2008 5:49 pm

    Very cool idea. I’m way to high on this list, I need to be a little lazier.

18. Tight Fisted Miser July 3, 2008 6:26 pm

    Thanks for including me. It looks like I’ll have to step up my posting a lot to make it to the top.

19. lulugal11 July 3, 2008 6:41 pm

    I am just one below Clever Dude so I guess I better find more things to talk about so I can have interesting posts to offer my reader.

20. Grey July 3, 2008 7:48 pm

    The daily postings/subscribers link is really interesting, but not entirely unexpected - after all, I’m more inclined to add someone to my reader who is posting on a regular basis.

    Thanks for sharing, and the link to the Fu!

21. Ryan S.@uncommon-cents.net July 3, 2008 7:56 pm

    That’s a great list, and some of these folks are incredibly prolific! Mine is above ten a month too, so I’d like to mention that… my URL’s above, of course :)_

22. Chief Family Officer July 3, 2008 8:42 pm

    Thanks so much for including me in this very cool list, and thanks especially for being a subscriber/reader!

23. Katharine July 3, 2008 9:11 pm

    Thanks for the mention!

24. Funny about Money July 3, 2008 9:55 pm

    Funny about Money had 34 posts last month. Since I make at least one post a day — often more than that — it’s never had fewer than 28 posts a month since its inception last December.

    Because Funny is done in iWeb, it’s a little atypical to navigate, and I’ve found it hard to enroll in services such as Technorati that require me to enter code behind the scenes. You can subscribe by clicking the blue RSS feed button on the homepage, and you can easily see how many articles have been posted over any given period by clicking on the “Archives” link.

    If anyone out there knows how to hack iWeb, I’d sure like to hear from them…

25. Pinyo July 4, 2008 7:11 am

    I have tough time with my 20+ posts. It’s incredible how others post so much more.

26. Broke Grad Student July 4, 2008 10:47 am

    I agree with Pinyo. 20+ posts is a stretch for me. It’s amazing how some of the others find the time to post so much.

27. PT July 5, 2008 9:01 am

    Interesting way to look at our group. Thanks for putting together.

    I’d love to see “length of service” and “subscriber count” bumped up against this to see the relationship.

28. GG @ This Writer's Wallet July 5, 2008 12:00 pm

    Hey, cool list! I always enjoy seeing the bloggers broken up in new ways. Thanks for the mention!

29. SingleGuyMoney July 5, 2008 4:45 pm

    Great list! Thanks for including me.

30. RC@Thinkyourwaytowealth July 5, 2008 6:15 pm

    Very cool list! Interesting to see sites ranked this way. Thanks for including me.

31. Pushing30 July 6, 2008 12:51 am

    Thanks so much for including me in your list! I’m always a bit shocked when I find out someone is reading my blog It’s neat to see where I fit in with the amount of posts because I feel like I’m not writing enough! I’ll be doing a lot of reading now that I have your list to work through! Cheers.

32. Benjamin July 6, 2008 2:44 am

    I guess that I was lazy during the month of JUNE!

    Oh well, I already have 20 posts backlogged for July and hope to have at least 31 (one for everyday) by the end of the month!

    Be sure to include me next month!!

    Regards,

    Your friendly blogger at Trees Full of Money!

33. Sean July 6, 2008 9:19 am

    Okay, I had not planned on it, but I’ll have to do this again next month with more stats. Thanks for all the comments and suggestions.

34. FinancePuzzle July 6, 2008 4:54 pm

    Great List….Finance Puzzle had 10 posts in June and please include in the next list…I see with my 10 posts that I am on the lower end of the range…I need to pick it up…
    Thanks

35. creditaddict.com July 7, 2008 8:52 am

    How about http://www.creditaddict.com/

    The easiest way to get the post count is probably from the archives page:

    http://www.creditaddict.com/archives/

    Just eleven posts in June, in part due to vacation.

36. Momma July 7, 2008 9:21 am

    I had 25 posts at http://www.3princessesmomma.com for the month of June.

37. MoneyEnergy July 7, 2008 9:51 am

    Yes, thanks for the mention…. and as I see from all these comments, this *was* a great idea:)

38. Sallie's Niece July 7, 2008 8:14 pm

    Hi, I just found this site but I’m pretty sure I made more than 10 posts in June and would like to be added if possible. Thanks and come by if you have a chance!

39. jim July 7, 2008 10:27 pm

    Thanks for including me, I guess I didn’t really count how many posts I had. I try two a weekday but sometimes I get more out I suppose.

40. jim July 7, 2008 10:28 pm

    I just counted and I think I’m at 15 posts through 7 days…

41. Greener Pastures July 9, 2008 5:49 am

    Great list of some great blogs here! I’m honored to have my relatively new blog included among them.
    Lisa

42. budgets are sexy July 9, 2008 7:10 am

    Interesting for sure! Thx for the mention

43. PersonalFinanceHacks.com July 9, 2008 8:03 am

    Please check out my blog and consider including it in your list for July. Thanks!

44. Dawn July 9, 2008 12:34 pm

    Hi there - 36 for June. I would love to be added to your list for next month. The stats are on the right side of my page, by the archived listings.

    Thanks!!

45. Monroe on a Budget July 9, 2008 5:42 pm

    I’m not on this list, but yes, I make a lot of posts.

    I do have an unfair advantage in that I am allowed (encouraged) to blog at my day job, so if something catches my attention I can log on and blog away; as compared to many of you who blog as a hobby or free-lance venture.

    Now, if I relied only on my own ramblings for content, I would run out of ideas pretty quick. But I expected from the start that I’d include commentary on national / regional headlines and PSA’s for my local readers along with my own stories.

    Then, I found other PF and frugal bloggers and started following their links and conversations. Result: even more blog food!

    Who would have guessed there would be so much to talk about money-wise?

46. Sean July 12, 2008 10:00 am

    update: everyone who commented is setup to be included in the list for July.

    Since I do not plan on doing this every month, next month will be the super-duper megalist. Already, I’ve added start dates, and will almost certainly have subscriber counts. I’m debating if there is a “lazy” enough way to grab the average number of words per post, but I have my doubts there.

    For updates on the next list (and other ramblings):

47. Jimmy July 14, 2008 8:32 pm

    Thanks so much for the mention Sean - really appreciate it!

    These are some amazing stats by the way…172 posts in a single month. Unreal!

48. hank July 18, 2008 10:02 am

    Yea, it’s funny how the posting schedules work, I seem to fire off more during the winter months (go figure) and be outside during the summer and go for every other day routine, but indeed an interesting list!

49. The Digerati Life July 20, 2008 11:56 am

    Interesting list! Yes, looks like the financial blogging community is an extremely active bunch! Wowza, gives me a different perspective about how hard we work on our blogs…

50. Sherry July 20, 2008 4:20 pm

    My personal finance blog is just beginning, but I do have some interesting posts.

    I’d like to be included in your list if I can.

    Thanks!

51. Shadox July 21, 2008 1:28 am

    Thanks for the mention. I just squeeked in…

    Well, it’s the quality, right?

52. Andy July 23, 2008 1:25 pm

    Hope you’ll consider my blog for your list. I have done way more than 10 posts last month.
