Revisiting your most successful blog posts

If you've ever visited a blog that's been mentioned in a popular article, you may have noticed the author's name in the byline. If not, it's usually due to two things:

First, the author posted a piece of content on their own site and it was so good that other people want to link to it. The author is probably busy doing something else (like working on their next piece of content) but they still want their readers to see what they've written.

Second, they wrote some great stuff that's worth revisiting. This is especially true if you're still new to blogging and have only published one or two posts so far.

So why revisit your most successful posts? Well, first off because they're still relevant - they're helping people solve problems or achieve goals and you might be able to help them even more if you add new pieces of content around them.

But even more importantly: if someone comes along who needs help, but hasn't found any resources before reading yours - then all of those re-visits will help them out more than just one link from someone who has never heard about you.
