Blogging for the Hell of it
by WhionaWe don't need blogging niches, or "thought leaders"; we need more people just to blog for the hell of it.
I think Whiona hits the nail squarely on the head with this one. Writing a blog post just for the fun of it is exactly why I blog. All that ProBlogger crap - find a niche, double down, collect emails, CONVERT! Is utter bullshit.
Also, the sheer number of useless "listicles" that plague search results is beyond a joke at this point. I'm willing to bet there are millions of fantastic posts, written by people who know what they're talking about. But they're hidden in the depths of the internet because, unfortunately for them, they haven't "optimised" enough.
Fuck search engines.
