Once upon a Wednesday: milestones

An alert popped up in January of 2019, telling me I had reached the milestone of 1,000 posts on Scent of a Gamer.

I just had to write about it.

At the time I took a look over some of my most popular posts to date by page views, and then talked about some of my favourite posts.

It’s less than two years later but I would not write the post that way today. Milestones for me now have changed into something else. I have my trays to mark my progress through painting my collection.

One thing these pop ups from WordPress do, is encourage me to think about what I do like about my blog, and blogging in general. In summary, it’s not the blog, it’s the interactions with other bloggers that I value.

I’m less concerned with getting to a certain number of posts, or making sure I post something about a particular topic. As we move from 2020 into 2021, I am thinking about how the blog can be steered more by the audience than by me. I’m not sure what that means yet and I will talk more about this next January when I have a better idea.
