i normally use reddit for what people normally do with a blog. this is because i dont know enough to drive traffic to my site. i recently created a Docusaurus blog for my app and id like to see more traffic go there when i set up ads. the amount of traffic i have right now is barely anything (about 30 per day), compared to the number of "views on reddit".

i regurgitated old reddit posts into articles. im not much of a writer and im sure the content can be improved to "flow better".

i created some images on my phone... i justify it as "it matches the theme"... its actually the best i can do without using some AI or an actual artist.

id like to set up some kind of ads on it when its looks like its in a better state and i can attract traffic.

let me know what you think i could/should do to make it better.

thanks for the tip!

can i just copy-paste that into the blog for free? if you want, and if you have github, i could list you as one of the authors.

ive tried hacker news (a prev post). its been mentioned before that its good for technical discussions. to me it seems pretty dry and unappealing to maintain a presence there (similar case for mastodon and discord). im faily new to lemmy and so far seems to yield the "most useful" feedback.

No worries. You can use those sentences in any shape or form, without any need to mention my name. They are released under BSD zero-clause.

I think it is a bit like clickbaits, but sometimes you need them. Hope you find your way soon and most importantly, enjoy yourself in writing!
