5 Reasons Why You Should Blog on Hashnode

Hello everyone! To commemorate Hashnode's launch on ProductHunt, I'd like to dedicate this article to the Hashnode team. In this article, I want to simply summarize all the amazing reasons why anyone should start blogging on this wonderful platform.

Without further ado, let's begin!

1. You get to meet new people

Our Hashnode community is home to developers and writers from around the world, which means you get to meet new people at a global scale.

Hashnode even has an exclusive Discord channel where you can start introducing yourself to the community, make some new friends and share your articles there!

No matter what your background is in tech, the diversity at Hashnode ensures that you will be able to meet and connect with like-minded individuals who share similar passion in many areas of software, technology and development.

2. You get to learn from fellow developers

One of the best things about starting a tech blog is not just writing and sharing your knowledge. It is also about learning from others and growing together.

The Hashnode culture highly emphasize this form of learning from each other. Through live Ask Me Anything (AMA) sessions, you get to connect and ask questions to some of the most well-respected experts in the software industry.

Of course, there are also plenty of accomplished developers on Hashnode that are more than happy to answer any questions in the discussion forums.

Discussion forums is another simple way in which you can engage with other developers, ask questions and learn from their perspectives.

3. You are surrounded with supportive and amazing people

Hashnode facilitates a non-toxic, respectful and supportive environment. If you are new to writing, feel to use the draft sharing feature to ask more experienced writers for advice before publishing your article.

In fact, it is encouraged to share your drafts to gain a lot of feedback when you are starting to write on your blog. It will help improve your writing significantly faster.

At Hashnode, our community is supportive and helpful. You can simply reach out to anyone that you want to connect with by checking out their blog or Hashnode profile page.

Here's mine as an example. You can find my contact information on my profile page or my email on my blog. image.png

4. You grow and develop your own blog
