Nobody cares about your blog, but you should keep writing!

The author started a blog but has considered stopping due to lack of readership. Though few may read the blog, writing it can serve as notes for the future, help release and clarify ideas, and give a sense of freedom. Even if the ideas are not original, sharing one’s personal view can enrich them. Ultimately, the author decides to publish the post regardless of who may read it.

Do you maintain a blog? Are you getting value out of the practice?

    If someone still wants to do this, more power to them. I definitely think there is value in just writing for yourself and putting it out there.

    But then again, the internet has changed so much even in the last few years. I used to blog but gave it up.

    Journaling offers me a similar outlet, and I dont have to bother with web hosting on a website that reminds me every time I look that nobody else is reading my stuff. (At least for me.)

    But I recognize this is just my experience. I know it isnt like this for everyone. If it still helps someone find meaning, I say go for it.
