  43. <p>Yes, you should write a text-only blog in 2024. It is still worth it. People still love to read to consume new information. If you look at the numbers of various text-only websites, it shows that people still read text-based content.</p>

  85.  
  86.  
  87. <p>But today, readers have more options to choose from.</p>
  88.  
  89.  
  90.  
  91. <p>Instead of reading a long blog post, she can easily pick up a short reel to get a gist of the topic.</p>
  92.  
  93.  
  94.  
  95. <p>If I follow my own habit of reading blogs, I scan blogs for information.</p>
  96.  
  97.  
  98.  
  99. <p>Every time I am looking for something, I will Google it. </p>
  100.  
  101.  
  102.  
  103. <p>Often times I get my answer within the search meta descriptions.</p>
  104.  
  105.

  109.  
  110.  
  111. <p>So I don&#8217;t even click through the websites most of the time. </p>
  112.  
  113.  
  114.  
  115. <p>And even if I do click through, I will quickly jump to the desired section of that blog, and then grab the info I am looking for and press the &#8220;back button&#8221;.</p>
  116.  
  117.  
  118.  
  119. <p>Even when reading a tutorial piece for development, I will look for either a step-by-step process or prefer video instruction over text content.</p>
  120.  
  121.  
  122.  
  123. <p><a href="https://kentcdodds.com/blog/authentication-in-react-applications" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The following blog post</a> from Kent C. Dodds has a quick tutorial. I watched that short video to skip over the technical text,</p>

  128.  
  129.  
  130.  
  131. <p>I only read through the entire blog post when it was very insightful, and thought-provoking, such as <a href="https://thedankoe.com/letters/i-discovered-a-way-to-learn-10x-faster-reality-metabolism-universal-thinking/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">this one from Dan Koe</a>.</p>
  132.  
  133.  
  134.  
  135. <figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="672" height="484" src="https://blogkori.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/image-11.png" alt="" class="wp-image-9466" srcset="https://blogkori.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/image-11.png 672w, https://blogkori.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/image-11-300x216.png 300w, https://blogkori.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/image-11-156x112.png 156w" sizes="(max-width: 672px) 100vw, 672px" /></figure>
  136.  
  137.  
  138.  
  139. <p>Then again, my attention span is low. So I am going to enjoy the post when it&#8217;s divided into meaningful sections. These sections should have bite-sized chunks I can easily digest.</p>
  140.  
  141.  
  142.  
  143. <p>You will likely read an opinion-type post such as this one. And if you really care about my opinion, you will read the entire thing through the end.</p>
  144.  
  145.  
  146.  
  147. <p>But when it comes to creating SEO gain posts, most of these blog posts will sit there as commodities. </p>
  148.  
  149.  
  150.  
  151. <ul>
  152. <li>You will get search rankings</li>
  153.  
  154.  
  155.  
  156. <li>you will get traffic</li>
  157.  
  158.  
  159.  
  160. <li>you will get ad revenue</li>
  161. </ul>
  162.  
  163.  
  164.  
  165. <p>but in my opinion, those posts are easily replaceable by other people&#8217;s blog posts.</p>
  166.  
  167.  
  168.  
  169. <p>So what do people value? and how to be truly remarkable?</p>
  170.  
  171.  
  172.  
  173. <p>You should blog about your own unique experience that people cannot replicate. </p>
  174.  
  175.  
  176.  
  177. <p>Today, people will read and continue reading that blog because of the unique perspective the author brings to the world.</p>
  178.  
  179.  
  180.  
  181. <p>If you can, also use a visual medium to enhance your text posts.</p>
  182.

  204. <p>I want to use the endless possibilities of a self-hosted WordPress site. WordPress site lets me do what other hosted platforms don&#8217;t want to do (such as ads). Some other reasons I am blogging in WordPress are:</p>
  205.  
  206.  
  207.  
  208. <ul>
  209. <li>I want to learn how to build WordPress sites again. Get into the ecosystem.</li>
  210.  
  211.  
  212.  
  213. <li>I want to have a great publishing experience. WP editor is a pleasure to work with.</li>
  214.  
  215.  
  216.  
  217. <li>I want to be able to sell this site if I ever wish to. WP is a transferable asset.</li>
  218. </ul>
  219.  
  220.  
  221.  
  222. <p>So now that you know the reasons for me to pick WP, let me tell you my process on getting back to it again:</p>

  230. <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why I am back to blogging in this again?</h2>
  231.  
  232.  
  233.  
  234. <p>This year in 2024, I want to start building online businesses. As I work on various ideas, I want to document my findings here on BlogKori.</p>
  235.  
  236.  
  237.  
  238. <p>Few days ago I went to visit a friend and a long time reader Rubel SBS. He told me the story of how he got a Payoneer card after reading my blog post. After he posted about this on his Facebook profile, a bunch of people chimed in the comments and shared how they also read my blog. This sparked a new interest in me to start writing on this dead blog.</p>

  260. <h2 class="wp-block-heading">From Hashnode to WordPress</h2>
  261.  
  262.  
  263.  
  264. <p>This blog was previously on a self-hosted WordPress site, then earlier this year I moved all the posts to <a href="https://hashnode.com/@tamalchowdhury" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Hashnode</a>. </p>
  265.  
  266.  
  267.  
  268. <p>Although I could continue blogging on the Hashnode platform but I didn&#8217;t for few reasons:</p>
  269.  
  270.  
  271.  
  272. <ul>
  273. <li>My blog is on Hashnode, and I don&#8217;t know if I can fully monetize it. I have to abide by their terms of condition.</li>
  274.  
  275.  
  276.  
  277. <li>Hashnode is mainly a developer&#8217;s platform. I am blogging for the digital marketers now.</li>
  278.  
  279.  
  280.  
  281. <li>Writing experience on WP is better than Hashnode. Hashnode is good for writing technical articles in Markdown syntax.</li>
  282.  
  283.  
  284.  
  285. <li>Hashnode lacks themes. They have a set of themes. Compare that to WordPress, I have unlimited possibilities on what my blog will look like.</li>
  286. </ul>
  287.  
  288.  
  289.  
  290. <p>The domain name blogkori.com was on CloudFlare registrar, the cheapest domain rates right now. Unfortunaly, cloudflare does not allow you to change name servers. That means if you have a hosting account in BlueHost or others, you won&#8217;t be able to add the bluehost nameservers. I tried adding NS records but it didn&#8217;t work.</p>
  291.  
  292.  
  293.  
  294. <p>So the solution was to transfer my domain again to namecheap. BlogKori.com domain name was originally registered on NameCheap. A fellow patreon, Mushfiq from Gamers World Bangladesh was generous enough to register the domain name for me in 2008.</p>
  295.  
  296.  
  297.  
  298. <p>I transferred the domain name again to namecheap and this time set the new hosting nameservers.</p>
  299.  
  300.  
  301.  
  302. <p>My hosting account already had a WordPress site setup so all I did was to change the themes and do some cleanup.</p>
  303.  
  304.  
  305.  
  306. <h2 class="wp-block-heading">I drafted all my old blog posts</h2>
  307.  
  308.  
  309.  
  310. <p>Since 2008, I have published more than 300 blog posts. Most of these posts are junk and irrelevant today. So few years ago I deleted, updated, and merged a lot of them. I was left with 30 or so posts. I set most of my old posts as draft in WordPress, because I don&#8217;t know what to do with them.</p>
  311.

  315.  
  316.  
  317.  
  318. <p>Now in this 2024 reboot, I am doing a fresh start.</p>
  319.  
  320.  
  321.  
  322. <p>If I write words, I will make sure it&#8217;s valuable to my readers. You.</p>
  323.  
  324.  
  325.  
  326. <h2 class="wp-block-heading">The very first design of BlogKori</h2>
  327.  
  328.  
  329.  
  330. <p>I re-created the very first banner design in Figma:</p>
  331.  
  332.  
  333.  
  334. <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="750" height="274" src="https://blogkori.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/blogkori-white-header-1-750x274.png" alt="" class="wp-image-9443" srcset="https://blogkori.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/blogkori-white-header-1-750x274.png 750w, https://blogkori.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/blogkori-white-header-1-300x110.png 300w, https://blogkori.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/blogkori-white-header-1-200x73.png 200w, https://blogkori.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/blogkori-white-header-1-768x280.png 768w, https://blogkori.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/blogkori-white-header-1.png 830w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" /></figure>
  335.  
  336.  
  337.  
  338. <p>I picked up the reference logo from an old Twitter account and found that old font &#8220;<a href="https://www.freebanglafont.com/download.php?id=855" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Ekushey Chandrabati</a>&#8221; and recreated that first banner.</p>
  339.  
  340.  
  341.  
  342. <p>If you are one of my very few early readers, then you should remember this logo.</p>
  343.  
  344.  
  345.  
  346. <p>This is the only place you will see a Bengali text (for now). I will write this blog in English and occasionally I may post Bangla videos.</p>
  347.  
  348.  
  349.  
  350. <p>The blog tagline is simple: <strong><em>digital business experiments of Tamal Anwar Chowdhury</em></strong>. I am going to make some new online biz experiments and share what I find. BlogKori is my project in 2024, and I want to build some passive income streams using the internet.</p>
  351.  
  352.  
  353.  
  354. <h2 class="wp-block-heading">So who am I writing for?</h2>
  355.  
  356.  
  357.  
  358. <p>As I am now living in Bangladesh, I am writing this blog for mostly Bangladeshi people. But if you can read English, then I welcome you to join this journey. I will look at my analytics and see where are you coming from.</p>
  359.  
  360.  
  361.  
  362. <p>But regardless of your nationality, this blog is aimed mostly at digital marketers, online entrepreneurs, and or side-hustlers. The world of business is huge and I will cover topics as I learn them. Think of this as some guy&#8217;s journey to financial freedom. This blog is the digital biz experiments of <em>Tamal Anwar Chowdhury</em>, so if you care about one man&#8217;s experiences, then go for it.</p>
  363.  
  364.  
  365.  
  366. <h2 class="wp-block-heading">What should you expect from this blog?</h2>
  367.  
  368.  
  369.  
  370. <p>You should expect blog posts from time to time. As I publish a new post, I will share the link to my Facebook profile. I am documenting my journey of my projects. BlogKori is my first project, so I will post the process of setting things up on this blog, and how it went. Expect words, my thought process, results, and screenshots.</p>
  371.  
  372.  
  373.  
  374. <p>Previously, my blog was a guide on &#8220;how to blog&#8221;, but now it&#8217;s not. This blog is going to document my journey, and it will act as a means to educate, entertain, and inspire you.</p>
  375.  
  376.  
  377.  
  378. <p>As I type out this article on the WP editor, it&#8217;s been 58 minutes since I started writing. It takes me roughly an hour to draft an article. In the next posts, I wish to say more with fewer words. So don&#8217;t expect me to write 1,000+ word long posts. I will write as much as it&#8217;s needed.</p>
  379.  
  380.
