Writing Feels Empty? These Writers Changed That for Me
We are now enslaved by the algorithms.
Being a writer for almost three years, I love to read my fellow writers, to get inspired.
But interestingly, I have come to a place where articles ranked on the Google first page, Medium home, and LinkedIn virality do not pique my interest anymore (I don’t find any value lol).
Getting my own articles ranked for several companies, I know how SEO is working, and what kind of fishy game it has become.
The value is rarely given through thoughtful winning methods.
Instead, the methods used are to surely (definitely) rank on Google #1.
Writing my way, which is actually helpful, has become much harder, not because I don’t want to write my experiences or so forth. Because if I don’t follow the strategies, long checklists, and briefs on “Make it SEO friendly”, I won’t be able to pay my coffee bills.

You can taste real writing when it hits your gut before your brain.
