Does consistent content still win in white hat SEO?

I've seen people say consistency is the key in SEO, especially with white hat methods.
If you're publishing regularly, are you seeing better rankings over time? or is quality more important than frequency now?
Curious about the approach.

Consistency helps, but only if the quality is there.

Fewer, better pieces always win.

consistency can help but if you have 10 days in a month to work and you need consistency, you can utilize 10 days and schedule posts for future so that it automatically publishes content at a future date

I believe that quality always trumps quantity, but consistency is a reliable signal that will encourage Google to revisit your website more frequently. If you post regularly but with superficial content, your rankings will quickly plummet. Conversely, one in depth article that thoroughly addresses a user's problem will be more powerful than ten short articles. The best approach currently is to maintain a consistent posting schedule (e.g.2 articles/week), but each article must meet standards in terms of informational value and technical optimization

Consistency is a secondary factor. If your content is high-quality and also consistent, you’re more likely to improve your rankings

Freshness is loved by Google and even AI. similar algo is also being used on Social media sites too.

Honestly, consistency helps, but only if the content is actually useful. Posting regularly builds topical authority over time, but one solid article can outperform several average ones. A mix of both usually works best.

I’m new here, but in my opinion Consistency still matters, but quality matters more. Posting daily won’t help much if the content isn’t useful. I think a better approach is to post regularly, but focus on making each post actually helpful. Even slower posting works if the content is good.
