Ask HN: How do people find your blog?
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.

My own purpose in using it is to be able to get back to any link that I've read or have potentially wanted to read at a later point in time.

Google Search Is Dying
This was kind of the idea behind a side project I started a few years ago:
https://digraph.app/
https://blog.digraph.app/2020-06-13-democratization-of-searc...
I definitely think crowd-sourcing and a well-conceived reputation management system that can influence results are good next areas for exploration.

Paul Graham's Twitter thread on Search engines and SEO spam
> I think building search vertical that are hand-curated would be very interesting to see.
That was my inspiration behind a side project I made a few years ago — a decentralized, hand curated "search engine" [0]. Never got beyond the side project stage. But I see promise in this in the future. Eventually we'll figure out that human and moderated curation is better than the best machine learning.
