If You Have a Blog...


Someone I greatly respect told me last fall that having a Facebook page is tenuous, because Facebook can change the algorithm and all of a sudden, it no longer shows up in someone's feed. So, I started a blog. I really like my blog; I like writing to my blog, even though it may take several hours to do all of the research to make it meaningful. I think I have a lot to say, and some of it is interesting. It's also the point of view of an older middle-class educated black woman, and not everyone hears that point of view, so it has value. With a full-time job, I can only write once a week, but I've been consistent.

I'd love to have a wider audience. I think I have 12 followers. I'm not trying to make money from it, I'm not going for tens of thousands of followers. But I'd love to make a name for myself. I think it would be fun.

If you have your own blog, I'd love to know how you get followers.

I'd also love some blog ideas.

Over the past 9 months, I've written about a wide variety of things in my blog:
- the March on Washington
- Black Superheroes
- How our values determine salaries
- Hip-hop turns 50
- Henrietta Lacks and Medical Research
- Midwest Conservatism
- Product Safety
- A Son in Prison
- Abortion
- Juneteenth
- Fatherhood
- Pride Month
- AI
- Gun Control
- Hook Ups
- Domestic Violence
- Native Americans
- Trump
- Marketing
- Feminism
- Hospice
- Good Stories
- Writing
- Spending $1 billion
- MLK Day
- Kwanzaa
I find ideas from TV, from the news, from my stories, from my life... and I LOVE writing. I love doing the research to make the blog powerful, factual, educational, enriching. But coming up with topics has been tough. So, ideas are welcome.

Currently being in a waiting room at a professional office and bored, I read some of her blog entries. First off, she’s not a good writer. Her pieces are mostly all “woe is me” and “whitey keeping the black people down.” Also, she’s murdered several unborn children and she is a devoted worshipper of an idol. IOW, your typical primitive.

Bet she doesn't post mean tweets, though...  :fuelfire:

Can you say 'borrrrrrrring' ? 

It seems more logical to go for a niche audience till the thing is breathing on its own.

I'm surprised DU's PTBs would allow a member to self-promote their blog like that. Maybe her having nearly 5600 posts is relevant to being allowed to do so.

So, I started a blog.
 I really like my blog;
My blogs name is de shawana, it sounds very African.
My blogs pronouns are they/them and it
I like writing to my blog,
I think I have a lot to say, and none of it is interesting.
I am black with a chip on my shoulder because I’m better than everyone
