Default VFR position reporting

I'm still not clear on the exact procedure for position reports if you
are flying VFR over long distances without flight following. To whom
do you report your position, and what information should it include?
Which positions do you report and how often?

Sometimes when flying near untowered airports I will report my position
relative to the airfield on the CTAF. If by some chance (rare) I am near
the pattern altitude when passing by I think it a good idea to advise
inbound & traffic in the pattern.
