Where Should You Publish Your Creations on The Internet?
Does the platform matter as much as the content? (Spoiler: It doesn’t)
Where should you publish your stories, blog posts, or perhaps just ideas you want to share with the world?
Many people’s first answer to this question would be — Social Media. And they would be right — with a caveat.
Publishing a picture from an event on Facebook is like flushing down the toilet. You will never see or hear about this water and its contents ever again. Of course, there is always a chance of flooding. But it’s rare.
Don’t think about the platform. The platform is only a means to direct the packaging of your content. Instead, think about the value of what you’re about to publish. Even if only a handful of people will see your post — would they tag someone and say, “Hey, this is helpful”?
On the other hand, what if you’re going to publish an original fantasy story on social media? Like every story — some will connect, and some won’t. That’s perfectly fine.
As long as you make your content easy to digest and with a clear intention towards your reader — you will always succeed. You have to stay consistent to see results.
