There are many doubts among people who are starting professional activity (or those who have not started, but still should) about creating their blog. The benefits of having a blog are enormous, and the effort, once you’ve practiced, will also be small.
So why? To prove your qualifications! (Mainly)
Reasons Why This Will Help You
Let’s consider these reasons from the employer’s perspective:
- You prove your knowledge of a given topic. To write about something, first, you need to spend a lot of time on research or your contemplation.
- You show that you have a desire to share knowledge. This is, in a way, proof of your dedication to the topic.
- You have proven knowledge that will be somewhat practical.
Just having your internet corner will also be convenient for you
You’re doing a collection of your reflections on various topics. You have a chance to talk yourself out in your corner. Not only that, but you build your archive of what you have been doing, where you have gone. This sometimes has a different end because you may feel depressed by your laziness, but that’s okay! This will lead to motivation.
You will also improve your writing skills.
I think I’m not great at it, but I will get into practice :)
Don’t think you are not a knowledgeable person. That is absurd!
Because the truth is, there will always be someone who knows less than you. Someone who has 3 weeks of experience on a broader topic while you have 3* months* of experience behind you. *
Creating a blog is not that difficult, and It does not risk being hacked
Maybe these conclusions sound like a hat, but the excuses are different. There are technologies like Static Site Generators. Which works extra out of the box. Their field of attack (scope) is also low due to the lack of databases. I will leave further considerations on the benefits of generators for later posts.
