To Blog Or Not To Blog

I have started this blog more than 5 years now and many times I wanted to give up and stop blogging. But I kept on going with lots of ups and down, stopping for some periods then posting heavily.

Meanwhile I have launched some other blogs, Krikomatic, Skambla and Kibo and as my main blog, most of the time, I have failed to maintain them on a continuous rhythm for many reasons.

Until few days back, I got to a blog post from my twitter timeline with the title saying: “Nobody Cares About Your Damn Blog”, written back in May 2011 by Joey Strawn.

One hundred and fifty-four million, four hundred and forty thousand blogs go completely and utterly unread.

Let me write that number out for you so you can really take it in: 154,440,000

That’s not even the number of blogs yours is actually competing with, those are just the ones that no one felt were worthy enough to even be read in the first place. If you had even one reader on your last post, you’re doing infinitely better than millions of others out there right this very minute.

So, with all that indifference running around for blogs, what makes you think anyone gives a damn about yours and how can you make sure that someone actually does?

So this took me back to the old question that hunts me every now and then: to blog or not blog?

Given the few thousands of visitors I get monthly to my blog, I have decided to keep it alive at the same tempo, just to share my thoughts.

Thank you for visiting my blog.
