Write And Publish First Organize Later

This article was first published on 15 July 2020, and I'm porting from a previous platform to this current one.

I chanced across this concept as I read Jon Dyxstra’s blog, where he started a new product review blog, but he keep writing first without adding any tags or categories, simply because he wants to see how the site grows and develops first.

I like that idea.

I believe the major reason why this blog (NigelChua.com) isn’t growing as fast isn’t just because I’m busy with a few businesses to juggle such as

  • Phoenix Rehab Physio & Hand Clinics, our specialist physiotherapy and hand therapy practice in Singapore
  • KDP romance and self help books and maybe others (in development)
  • investments
  • kids and family
  • other niche affiliate sites and projects

…is that I have been wanting to think the entire project first before I take consistent action, such as writing here for myself and my readers.

It’s not that I don’t have topics to write about, I do have quite a bit, just that I was thinking if I should sort/think out the categories first so that the topics can fall within the categories I prepare, but that was an error I believe.

As I am more intuitive and exploratory curious in nature, I will do it the other way around: take an intuitive semi-structured approach to writing NigelChua.com and then take a look to create/refine the categories here on this site.

Let’s see how that goes.

We don’t have to have the entire map and structure mapped out first before we make our move – we can make our move first and then refine as we go along.

Commentary 22nd August 2024

Hmm - despite me writing this, yet I fell into the trap of trying to categories and tag everything FIRST before writing...hence I didnt write much at all, now that I'm porting all the content from October 2019.

Less than 15 articles across the span of 5 years? 

That's...disappointingly annoying yet, it shows how when I'm overwhelmed, I just dont do anything. That's how I lose 5 years of writing opportunity costs.

And that's why I'm back here now in Solo Build It - take away all those WordPress tinkering and dealing with the plugins and apis and whatnot. Just go back to basics.

That should work...if not then its me wakaka!
