Maybe it's the niches. What was your old blog about compared to the new ones?
Also, the sheer amount of material you have to compete with for people's attention is insane these days.
I also wonder if most people still read long articles. Do people prefer video or podcasts over lengthy articles?
- personlurking 10y agoThe old one and the newer two are about understanding foreign cultures. The old one was about a particular country while the newer ones are focused on vibrant major cities. I know if I focused on tourism, I'd get more of an audience but since I blog for pleasure (and like digging into national identity, urban planning, historical changes and the arts), I prefer to produce content that interests me rather than write for clicks. I also wonder about the same things (re:last two lines you wrote). I'd love to make a podcast, like 99% Invisible, but who wouldn't?
