How did you get started? Any tips on getting dev blog readers (not that I have one yet)?
- duiker101 6y agoI am really not the best person to answer this because I am still very unexperienced. But I had the luck of writing one blog post that got a lot of traction and to have a website that can generate a bit of traffic to the blog. The actual writing was really the hard part for me. Putting my knowledge to words is tricky. I struggle with finding topics and how to express them. What worked for now was more of a "whatever, let's just do it" attitude and try different things.

Someone very experienced might have very well forgotten how it was when they started, or they might have started when online writing landscape was quite different. Or, worse, they might say "well, I just sent an email to my 5000-member email list, how else would you start a blog?" :) What is your blog? I dug out https://duiker101.net/ https://duiker101.net/ but that is returning 404 for me.
