My take on an unpopular business model at the moment:

--> Should you start a blog in 2018?

The definitive answer for any and all wondering whether blogging is worth your time these days…

Or nah. First off…

Blogging isn’t dead these days.

It may not be a viable option for many.

But it sure as hell isn’t dead.

Many people, myself included, make a full-time income from blogging in one way, shape or form.

#TravelTuesday ~ Ibague, Colombia ~

I’d live here. All year.

Just loved the place.

It’s small, in the mountains, and there’s no tourism.

But the people are friendly, it’s cheap, and I felt insanely healthy here.

You could get a massive piece of baby beef for $6.

Not ideal for nightlife.

As I close in on 5K followers, I wanted to do a quick little thread on Twitter growth.

I have 10X my follower count in the last 4-5 months.

Here’s how I did it: #1. Visualizing the Value

I never gave a damn about Twitter until the last few months.

Why?

Because I didn’t know how valuable the platform was.

Once I saw the value in this platform, it makes sense to create here.
