Marketing - Media / Multimedia / Corporate blogging
French term or phrase: rythme éditorial
In a corporate blog about using social media for marketing purposes and brand awareness. This post is on the "hows and whys" of corporate blogs, and in the paragraph headed "politique éditorial", the following questions are asked:
- Quels sujets, sous-entendu, quelle niche éditoriale ?
- Quel *rythme éditorial ?*
- Quels formats (contenus froids et chauds, vidéos...)
- Quelle équipe de contributeurs ?

I believe "rythme éditorial" simply means how often a new post is published, but is there an more elegant or succinct way of saying this in English?

Thanks for any suggestions.

agree  Helen Shiner: Yes, publishing frequency is a standard term for this. And not just for blogs - would cover newsletters (by e-mail and otherwise), etc.

posting interval (posting frequency)


Explanation:
"éditorial" est un peu pédant ici, fait référence à un journal avec rythme de publication, rédaction et processus plus formels.

Pour un blog "posting" est le terme le plus utilisé pour un billet, pour le rythme on raisonne soit en intervalle soit en fréquence selon la quantité publiée par unité de temps

Wordpress ne choisit pas et utilisé les deux termes "frequency" et "interval"

Pro Blogger utilise "frequency" et "blog posting frequency" donne 2,4 millions ghits, donc semble largement utilisé
