My website did not have a blog until last week and it’s still mostly hidden. I landed two well paying freelance jobs directly with customers (i.e. no recruiters) from it. They had a project, needed help, Googled and found me. Sharing this to say that while I reckon a blog will help, it’s not essential. I only started working on a blog _after_ my websites proved itself.

If you’re curious, it’s an about me with project history: https://martijnhols.nl/
