If you care about citation count without the hassle of publishing a paper, you should make the blog post or github repo easy to cite. Add a blurb along the lines of "For attribution in academic contexts, please cite this work as: (insert bibtex blob here)". For examples, see the bottom of the posts distill.pub: https://distill.pub/2017/momentum/#citation https://distill.pub/2017/momentum/#citation. Or bottom of academic github repositories such as: https://github.com/sympy/sympy#citation https://github.com/sympy/sympy#citation.
