I think discoverability, reach, and exponential growth is overrated. In the end you either get overwhelmed by your massive userbase, or lose your original intent somewhere along the way, subconsciously catering towards more growth versus blogging for bloggings sake. Instead, screw all of that. Write your ideas and let it out. It's cathartic, it helps you think more clearly on whatever you are writing up, and serves as a lasting reference should you need to revisit that information again yourself. A blog with no readers is still a great tool for your own productivity.
