If you write to get lots of views, your posts will probably never be great.
If you write really good content, though, you’ll achieve the former by proxy.
It’s all about patience. So many of my old articles did nothing, but I’m a completely different and much better writer now for persisting.
I can also link pretty much all success in the web world back to writing. Publishing on my own blog has been endlessly useful too.
The blog platforms will get you short term views, sure, but what happens to your hard work when they’re gone?
Lastly: anyone can be a great writer. I did terrible at school, but over the last five or six years, I’ve persisted and improved. You just gotta work at this stuff, like anything else.
