Where would you expect the different kinds of blogging content I produce to be found?

jc2048
jc2048 over 7 years ago

Something I've realised recently is that content I put in my own blog here doesn't get seen by search engines. Content that goes in one of the groups, like Test & Tools, or one of the communities, like the Project14 competition entry ones, does. Presumably element14 have their reasons for that, though it seems a bit counter-productive to me.

 

One option I've got is to move to posting in the various groups/communities, but which ones?

 

Most of what I'm doing would seem to fall in the area of analogue circuit design, but with a lot of investigation and experimentation rather than complete projects. There's also a fair amount of simulation-related stuff and a small amount of FPGA (though I didn't get very far with it). Where would I put all that?

 

The manufacturer specific areas aren't really appropriate for most of it, though they do work for anything that's an addition to an SBC.

 

There is an FPGA group with a bit of activity, so that would do for those (if I can get started on them again).

 

There is an Open Source Hardware group, but that doesn't really seem like the right place for anything that doesn't end up as a full, working project.

 

There are a couple of places for audio design with few members and next to no activity, but that's too narrow a focus for most of what I'm doing.

 

Anyway, the question is: where on the site would you expect the different kinds of blogging content I produce to be found?

    Changing the direction of the question slightly:

     

    I don't write many blogs here,  but when I do, I post them under my personal blog, so they are all in one place. If I think that the blog has a relevance within a specific area - Arduino being my most popular area - then I put a message there to make the community aware, otherwise the blog will only be seen by people who are following me. I hope some of my blogs have a wider interest!

     

    I hope that doesn't sound too self-centered!!

     

    I think it would be a good idea if you could post a blog in  more than 1 one place - personal blog and wherever else it seems most relevant.

    I like to group mine like that too and if it wasn't for the issue with external search engines I'd probably continue like that.

     

    I agree that it should be 'Your blog AND..' rather than the current 'Your blog OR...' choice. It's obviously possible to do it with the content-management system because the staff do it occasionally. It's also been suggested at least once before (I did at some point, though there was no response from element14 to it).
