Ask HN: Starting blogging when you're not an expert?
Even if you aren't using it to become attractive for recruiters, this will probably happen.  I went from rarely (like, extremely) getting callbacks for remote gigs to getting around 30%-40% callbacks.  The difference was that I started a blog about writing a web application with modern technologies and included it in my applications.  It's a pretty bland blog, but just the fact that I wrote about stuff I'm interested in and has relevancy with the jobs I'm applying for has really paid off.<p>I definitely feel like an imposter, and I have no readers, but it definitely sharpens my abilities and has really forced me to really understand why I build something a certain way and to evaluate alternatives.<p>Do it.
