Are there any benefits to blogging?

Blogging is a matter that takes a lot of time and effort, if it is not profitable, anyone will go to the blog. An IT blog will bring you the following benefits:

  1. Helping you build and enhance your brand: I get respect from my colleagues because I learned to see them online and follow my blog. If you are a senior, team leader, having a blog about IT will make your juniors respect you, your boss will value you more. When applying for a job, just having a CV on Linkedin, a 2000 rep account on StackOverflow, an IT blog, you will be much more appreciated than other candidates.
  2. Network expansion: Thanks to blogging, I get to know a lot of friends, from senior, junior to students. These relationships are quite useful if you want to change jobs, refer to the salary.
  3. Improve your qualifications and writing skills: To have a blog, of course, you have to…. write. You will have to urge yourself to find something to write, how to write. In the process of reading, learning cool things to write, your level will increase significantly. When you write them down, you will remember clearly, remember longer, your presentation skill will also improve. This skill is very important, sometimes it determines the position — your salary.
