Do something new, write about it and invest some time. And do this as frequently as possible. Don't do it for clicks but for yourself. Best case is doing something long lasting / educational, that is still interesting in several years - even if technology has advanced. I try to see my personal blog[1] as way to keep my notes organised.

Nobody cares about Powerbank 2021 reviews or yet another "how to flash a raspi os image on an sd card" - except it contains something new or something not everybody does.

Examples:

- Not interesting (old content): The Top 5 Powerbanks 2021

- Interesting: Building a DIY 100W PD Powerbank[2]

- Not interesting (everybody does it): Copy raspi os to micro SD cards with dd

- Interesting: Copy raspi os to micro SD cards with cp and how Linux deals with files[3]
