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. i think its to hard to find the balance. im banking on it improving with practice.

i'll try make an update for better intros to articles. i think i go in a bit too technical from the start.

I actually meant the home page of your blog site, but modifying each blog in a similar fashion could also be great if possible, although that may also depend on the type of audience you are expecting that would read them.

A few of these articles genuinely interest me. I may consider reading them whenever I get time later.
