Things like blog posts are playing an increasingly large part in scholarship. Granted, it's not part of the 'traditional' peer-reviewed journals publishing process, but there's lots of change afoot (e.g. open access, post-publication peer review, preprints etc). One thing you can do is make sure you're still on the map. This could include, for example, making sure Crossref tracks your blog so we can record citations / references from your work to other work. Our service for tracking non-traditional publications, Event Data, is still in beta, but you could add your blog to the list: https://github.com/crossref/event-data-enquiries https://github.com/crossref/event-data-enquiries http://www.crossref.org/services/event-data http://www.crossref.org/services/event-data You could also publish your article on FigShare, which means it will get a DOI and thereby be more easily citable by others. If you hadn't guessed, I'm an employee of Crossref.
