This is kind of a rant (ish) and is my opinion. OPINION. Haters, you have been warned

As most bloggers, I put lots of effort into my posts. Some more than others. But for some reason, the posts that I don't expect to become a pop-reel, become one! Its so weird. For example: http://www.planetminecraft.com/blog/why-is-mining-so-creepy/ I did NOT expect at all that that would be popular. AT ALL. Yet http://www.planetminecraft.com/blog/what-makes-a-good-blog-2634109/ with a million words on it, I expected more from it. What does it show? I'm better at articles than tutorials >_<

You see, the posts I put more words in, the less popular it is. Visit: http://www.planetminecraft.com/blog/what-makes-a-good-blog-2634109/ on how to make a good blog. For example, the http://www.planetminecraft.com/blog/why-is-mining-so-creepy/ has few words, and I use it in many examples because it has meaning to it. Meaning of Quality > Quantity.

The thing is though, its like a gambling game. You post whats on your mind, and see how it goes. And the more effort you put, the riskier you are betting your time. (I'm not saying effort is horrible, find a right balance.) But the more effort, the better chance you have at "winning" the bet. And I cannot tell you how disappointing it is when you put so much effort into a post and it doesn't go anywhere. But I cannot also tell how surprising it is to find your supposedly "non-adequate" blog become a pop-reel. Of course though, if any post of yours becomes a pop-reel, you should be happy.

Anyways, I had to let this loose to the world of Minecraft and tell peeps how I feel about posts! Tell me your experiences in the comments below and rant with meh!

Don't worry, it happens. It happens a lot with the stories I post. I know how it feels - spending so much time on a submission and coming back ten hours later to find it with two diamonds.

You have a good point, but for the moment I can see you're a new blogger and I think you ought to get some more experience. I am not calling you a noob, the reason I mentioned you need more experience is that it gives you perspective. You need to have fun with blogging, regardless the amount of attention you gain, before worrying about anything like this. I can see you already have some future potential, so get out there and enjoy the time you put into things :)

Keep Crafting,
