Does it even make sense to start with Instagram today ?

Yes, but it is hard
and the road is rocky.

For a personal account it is not
so bad if the subscribers or likes
do not increase so quickly,
for a start up or small business
it is like a Sisyphus work
and you have to put
a lot of energy into it.

Anyway, Instagram will reach soon
the one billion user mark,
and it is a useful social media tool
for companies.

Facebook doesn’t seem so cool
to millenials anymore.
The most Instagram users
are under the age of thirty five.

Choosing a suitable user name
can be the first problem,
most of them are already taken !
Can I create interesting
and unique content?
Is anyone following me at all,
is anyone interested
in my content or products?

On the web you will find many
tips on why and how to build
an Instagram community.

So, get social and always
remember : Content is King !

Finally, yes,
and my main reason is because
today: It’s All About Photos

Attention to the younger ones !
Instagram has become
a virtual online drug that
is far too harmful for us,
so beware: real life is
outside and offline !

Haha, I’m over 35 and my account
is not business related, so I see it
more as fun and an experiment.

300 words – The ideal length for a blog post ?

Does it even make sense to start
blogging in 2021 ?
Blogs are dead, no one reads
them anymore….
No, blogging isn’t dead in 2021…
but it is changing.

Video and podcasting
are becoming more and more
important, posts in social media
are reaching more and more
traffic. Blogging continues to
generate traffic and has many
advantages over other platforms
but it also needs to be
mobile friendly.

With 300 words you can get
some traffic on Google,
the posts can be easily
consumed on the smartphone
and shared on other platforms.

300 words is not the ideal length, it all depends !

300 words
These short posts can be easily
read on smartphones, can get
some social shares and include
links to longer and more
detailed posts.
Normally, not recommended

300-1500 words
The experts would say
this is the minimum length.
We can call them educational
posts with a journalistic style.
These posts are great for
sharing, generate more traffic,
present valuable content
and reference links.

1500-3000 words
Perfect for detailed
and valuable content.
Search engines love longer
posts, so you will generate
more organic traffic.
These posts achieve expert
status, should be read
at leisure on larger screens
and are suitable for detailed
and valuable content.

So you can decide for yourself,
I’ll stick with the 300 words.
The internet & communication,
changes rapidly, what is
not advisable today
may already be optimal tomorrow.

This does not mean that I do not
enjoy reading valuable content
& posts with 3000 words.
But it can’t be that everyone
(including me) without
subject-specific knowledge
tries to write a post with 3000
words in order to generate
only more traffic.

This post is 285 words long.

Tria – dyo – ena, my first post

Welcome to my blog !

Well, this page summarizes my projects
to one point.
Here is my personal blog with the aim
to give you an incentive to build
or maintain your connection to Greece.

I experienced the internet before
social media, in those days you still
had to wait for an internet connection.
That’s why I would call myself
a connector, from the old internet
world (forum and websites which
apparently nobody reads anymore, lol)
to the new world of social media.
The second connection is a connection
to Greece.
I am not a programmer but I love
to create websites.
I am not a photographer but I love
to take photos.

I don’t care about the perfect blog
specifications because I don’t need
to make money with this.
It’s just for my creativity,
to improve my English and maybe
I can help someone.

So have fun exploring the website.
greetings
Thanasis
