I always wanted to start and write on my blog - just to share some things that other may find useful.

I started with something simple - entirely preloaded (all howtos) and static:

1. http://www.strony.toya.net.pl/~vermaden/links.htm

I assume no one ever entered it ... besides me of course.

Then some time later - I though that having that 'static' links site is pointless - lets start 'proper' blog this time. I have chosen Gogle Blogspot this time.

2. https://vermaden.blogspot.com/

... and after several posts I generally abandoned it.

Several years later I made a decision to make another blog ... but this time with some strategy behind.

3. https://vermaden.wordpress.com/

This (3rd) attempt was 'successful' and people sometimes actually visit my blog - sometimes even comment. In March of 2023 I will 'celebrate' the 5th year of that blog. I have made about 100 posts there and I made about 100,000+ views per year:

What is the secret of [3.] being successful and [1.] and [2.] definitely not? Sharing.

I do not know what blog (subject matter) you are trying to share - but for IT/UNIX/BSD/Linux related blogs (as mine) you need to share each post on these mediums:

- mastodon

- twitter

- lobsters

- hacker news

- FreeBSD forums

- reddit (r/BSD)

- reddit (r/FreeBSD)

- reddit (r/unix)

- reddit (r/linux)

- linkedin

Not sure about Facebook/Meta as their 'ecosystem' definitely does not suit my needs.

You need to ask yourself where and how people would try to find your content. They would definitely not browse a catalog of blogs. Maybe they wil ltry the search engine ... but search engines only pick up sites that are somewhat popular. They omit pages/blogs that are 'unknown'. How blogs are known? By many links pointing to them.

In other words - if you do not share your work/posts on all 'relevant' platforms - then you will 'die' in a 'non-known' hell.

If you believe your work - and it is work, you 'waste' your time to write/share these things you do - is valuable - then share them in all possible mediums/medias. If your content is good - you have to do nothing else. If your content is crap - You will immediately get feedback about it :D

One of the things that I really appreciate was the feedback I got. I often assumed that I know a lot about 'X' topic - just to change my mind after several comments later and providing and UPDATE to my blog post :)

I do not know what should I add here more so I will end my comment - but feel free to ask if You have any questions.

Regards,
