I love blogging!
Since 2017 I am in this game, trying to learn how to produce the best and valuable content for my readers.
Blogging is a medium...

I used to do most of the things listed there and I'm glad that no longer I do them.
When I have an idea, I'll write it down on a Google Docs file, so no matter if I'm at my job, home or walking, I'll not forget that idea. In fact, I have more than 50 ideas to write about, so that is no longer a problem π
My problem was not being consistent. I used to write when I feel like it and I wrote a lot. Until I didn't and I haven't for months. 2 months ago I re-took it and now I write 1 non-technical post and 2 technical posts every week.
I have set 3 days on the week to write and that's it. Not when I feel like it or when I'm bored.
Now my blog went from 3-7 readers a day to 50-70 a day and I'm starting to get a few readers from Search engines.
So yes, consistency is a good thing. Even if you publish your post and check after an hour just to see that post has 0 views.
You only need time.
Thank you so much for your message! This is very informative and helps a bunch π
Wishing you continued success! β€οΈ
Iβve started writing a lot of posts without planning and decide half way through that Iβm just rambling and not really making any sense. I would suggest writing sub headings before writing the content to help steer the direction of your post and keep it on track.

For me the struggle is to keep consistent, I've been blogging on and off for a year but never too consistently. I always get dragged into doing other things. For example a few days ago I had an idea for a webapp and now I'm working on that so I put writing articles aside.
Thanks for stopping by Alberto! That is definitely a real struggle π Donβt stress β just have fun with it. Well best of luck with your web app!
Thanks for your post! Actually, I've just started my own blog this month, after toying with the idea for over a decade. Two of the point you made here was one of the major reasons it took so long to begin - to unreal expectations and the marathon. I got over the first, hopefully I'll be able to get over last. Only time will tell...
Thanks for the comment!
Consistency is key, so donβt give up and you will get there.
Best of luck with your blog Zohar!
A great set of thoughts and tips, many of the things you mention I learned the hard way over time. Whilst painful lessons to learn, I'm glad that I did.
Every time I blog something, I feel I get a little bit better. But the one resounding tip that stands out above all-overs is to constantly write things down as they come to you.
For me, most ideas come just as my head is about to hit the pillow for the night, I think this is because that's when my brain is at it's most free from the days activities and demands, so I suggest either keeping a device to capture audio notes quickly or a pad and pen next to the bed.
I try to keep at least 40 things on a list all the time so I'm never short of things to work on when the creative spark hits.
I have written a tech blog about 3 months back. I am trying to complete the second one for the past months. I know I'm not very good at English which stops me further. I would like to improve...
No worries! Practice makes perfect π
Hmm for me I do my best to be consistent with my release of my blog post.
Just some time I'm swarm with work that I will take a week break from it a few times when I'm swarm with work
Thanks Max! So do I from time to time.
Thank you for your words! I appreciate it ^
