This is why having a blog as a developer is a great idea in 2021.

There are many reasons why having a blog can be a great idea in 2021. However, a lot of developers underestimate the benefits of blogging, they think it’s too late as there is already a lot of content on the internet and the competition is so high.

In my opinion, that’s definitely not true. Everybody has something unique to say and there is a high demand for good quality technical content that you can write as a developer. In addition to that, you don’t have to be an expert programmer to start blogging. Even if you just started out in your journey as a developer, there are people who haven’t started yet and they would love to learn from your content.

In this article, I’m not going to talk about how to start a blog or where you should be blogging, but we will cover the benefits of having a blog as a developer. So let’s get right into it.

Improving your own skills

One of the main benefits of blogging is that it can help you improve your own skills. When you write about a specific topic, most of the time you will find yourself doing some research about it. Because you want to write a great and good quality article.

This process helps you to learn more in-depth about that specific topic that you want to write about. It also encourages you to learn new things because when people love your article, they will probably ask for another article about a new topic that you may not know about. As a result, this will push you to go and learn about that new topic.

As a developer, you always have to learn new technologies and be up-to-date. So blogging is a good way to achieve that as it encourages you to learn and improve your own skills.
