Either your blog picks up and it becomes your identity - and can be useful for getting hired - or it's useless. It's a bit like github: if it's not great you won't get much out of it, if it's good you'll get some gigs out of that. Personally I discontinued my old blog back in 2011 and it wasn't never very useful, while my github still gives me leads for jobs and reputation. I have a friend who is really good at maintaining his blog but it doesn't seem like it served him any good.
