“Blogging can afford us such luxuries and freedom”- The unprecedented truth!
After 605 days of blogging, creating content, researching, and scrolling through pages to learn new every day, I, Rashi Desai was affirmed: Blogging is incredible! In my very-short but awarding journey of blogging, I found my niche really soon and began to narrow down on my content. I began looking out for content in magazines, on social media, other blog posts, and also in auto-rickshaws, in malls, streets, though I’m a tech blogger:P
The final semester of my engineering study, I had 6 months of mostly nothing to do. Internships, training, none worked out. And then, out of nowhere, I summoned a recruiter to reject the only internship offer I had and said: “I want to focus more on blogging. Thanks for the offer though.” And I started my full-fledged weekly blogging. And, it all changed when one of my blogs made 364 reads (!) Unimaginable!! I was overwhelmed, shocked, excited, nervous at the same time and charged to work the hardest to put forward my best content onto the blog.
It all changed the way I perceived things then. I’d tend to form a backstory of scenes around me, understand the dimensions and dynamics, and LEARN NEW everyday. This situationship of my mind unremittingly trying to explore content around was an omen: Blogging is my passion! More research, coffee, pages, scrambles, and final drafts. My reads graph escalated exponentially. And then was my superstar blog “How I learned UX in a week!” with 8K+ reads on a single blog. We’re CALM! No frenzies.
I started receiving Twitter messages to be a guest blogger, featured writer, someone even asked to accommodate paid promotions! I was getting paid to write blogs. We’re still CALM here:D
This ocean of opportunities that knocked me just because I said “I want to concentrate onto blogging”, it was surreal. March 24, 2019, I pounced to have a publication with an inter-connected but a much wider niche. Was born The Phile Club.
