This blog is still a young blog. June 20th. of 2011 was the first post and after Sept. I almost quit writing at all. Aiming to forget this blog came the new year. Not quite a resolution but on more of a suggestion that I keep writing, I have been posting new topics and have kept the blog current for about 2 months now. I have seen a dramatic increase in traffic from before with a lot of traffic occurring most recently. Total views of this site are not anything to brag about but it has raised the questions; Does my writing reach anyone? Do people read and care?
I have just relabeled the blog posts into a more concise listing and have come to realize that this blog may lack focus. My aim is to have a mix of topics and still focus on 3 main issues encompassing Atheism (religion), politics, and entertainment. After the relabeling I have noticed that many posts are under the philosophy label and this is somewhat of a catch all of coherent ideas and some inane ramblings. Politics and entertainment both have a high content total and to keep it balanced, I will write more on Atheism; what is it, what it means, and to show its not devil worship.
This posts goal is to generate some level of feedback. Since I am new to blogging I have no idea on what it takes to get followers or even comments out of people. As of now not a single person has commented which isn't actually disheartening but it is somewhat like being in the dark. I have tried to post decent content and make the page look half-well designed. I have also begun to include more photos and embed more videos for a more entertaining site.
I have searched blog spot posts randomly by using the 'next blog' widget while logged in and many blogs seem very uninteresting. Sometimes the page that it lands on may have only a tertiary relevance to the blog itself and this single sample is judged for better or for worse. I can see how some of my older posts are less attractive then my current content. So then how do I get a person to stick around a little longer? I can see how a great many people may be put off by the Atheist topics but I try to include enough variety to hook a greater audience. Is it working?
Tell me what YOU want to see or read about. How do YOU want this blog to look? Tell me am I relevant to YOU?
