Well it has been a while since I have logged onto this page. Blogging , apparently, is not for the feint of heart. While away, I have discovered that perhaps I was taking this too seriously. Looking to ensure I have good format, proper words, phrases that will get a hit with a search engine. All that technical stuff that I , in all honesty, don’t care about.
I did not create this blog in order to earn money or to “get famous” . I just thought it would be a cool thing to do in retirement. A way to stay busy, use my mind and have some fun. And if someone read it, well that would be good too.
I have no idea how to add links, create headers, and all that other stuff I read about. I don’t know how to position it to get some good feed back. I don’t even know if my blog is set up for feedback. LOL. Or interaction with others. ( I have had 4 comments all sent in a different language, which leads me to believe that my blog is out there somewhere). I think those comments are spam to tell you the truth.
So now I am thinking about what to do with this blog. Do I jump in deeper, take a course to learn more? Do I “upgrade” and invest in tools to make this experience more? Could I get to a point where I make money from this? And how would I do that? Better yet, do I want to do that? If so, how to I stand out? How do I create something others truly want to participate in?
It’s mind boggling how this has become like a weight on my back. When I started out it was to have fun and blog. It has become something that is work and that is not what I wanted. So, what now?
I will continue to blog, maybe take a course so I can at least maximize the effectiveness of some of the tools, and just have fun. Who cares if anyone reads it, comments on it. But I won’t limit it, because perhaps as I grow, so grows my blog.
