I can't help but notice some contradictions in your statements on this post, for once you maintain that you had a decent blog and coding projects but nonchalant about readership and traction metrics, isn't this more like a case of "grading your own homework"? I am not trying to be negative but I am just trying to make sense of the situation. In another instance, you lamented the lack of public recognition for your work and yourself in particular and in the same sentence insinuated that other developers are maintaining their blogs entirely for the ego boost when it looks to me that taking your whole portfolio offline in a protest of not receiving the right amount of public validation of your talents has as much to do with ego as their perceived driving force behind their online presence. Again, I am not trying to be negative on purpose here, I'm just trying to establish the facts. In general, I think that you may benefit a lot more from more introspection and viewing the whole enterprise in retrospect, and perhaps writing a post mortem detailing what went wrong and what can instead be done in the future to increase your chances of success, and to use the whole thing as a learning opportunity for personal growth on all levels.
