The New Rules of Blogging (And Why Less Is More)

The New Rules of Blogging 2025

Joelene Mills

It is 2025, and I know you don’t need another reminder to “just post more.”

You’ve already been told a time and again that “consistency is king,” the algorithm loves volume, and the way forward is to crank out as much content as possible.

The problem with that is, you’re already tired. Your audience is tired. Nobody wants more noise.

And yet—that is still the default advice. Make more. Publish more. Shove more into the feed.

Honestly, I am so over it and I know my audience is also.

Blogging today isn’t about producing more—it’s about producing what matters.

The internet is already overflowing with “5 Tips” posts and “Ultimate Guides” that read like ChatGPT on autopilot. Your audience doesn’t need another checklist or guide. They need clarity. They are looking for someone to help them filter what matters from the noise.

So I suggest that the new rule of blogging is not more. It’s meaning.

Instead of writing three posts a week that skim the surface, write one that goes deeper. Stop chasing keywords you don’t care about and answer the question your client Googles at 2 a.m. Quit building building a content factory and build a resource your people come back to because it’s useful—not because you’re shouting the loudest.

To apply the new rules of blogging, this week, try this:

  1. Pick one client question. The kind they’d DM you or nervously ask on a call.

  2. Write one blog post that actually answers it. No fluff, no “10 hacks,” just your best answer in plain language.

  3. Stop at one. Don’t make a “part two” or scramble to force more out of it. One strong post will do more for your visibility than three throwaways.

If you need a filter, ask yourself: would this post matter to one person who’s already following me? If the answer is yes, it’s enough.

My point is, you don’t need to out-publish anyone. You just need to show up with something worth reading.

One good post can go further than ten forgettable ones.

And if you want a little help turning this into a habit, this week’s blog starter in Coach’s Corner is built around this exact shift.
