Welcome to Hacker News! Show HN is more for projects, startups, and stuff like that. Blog posts shouldn't use that title. What I was saying is self-promoted blog posts usually shouldn't be posted at all. Most content on HN is here because someone found something they found intellectually interesting and wanted to share it. Self-posted content rarely gets front-paged. But, with that said, there are exceptions. I don't want to discourage you from writing and blogging and all that good stuff! The community ultimately decides if something is frontpage worthy. I'm just one voice :)
