Recently I received notification that somebody post information about my article on Twitter (thanks!). Twitter usually renders a link to blog posts as nice-looking cards. The card to my article shown up without a featured image.

I checked my Twitter feed, and some of my other entries also suffer from missing featured images.

This blog is my third approach to regular writing. It’s almost three years old now, so it’s a good indicator, that this attempt was the successful one. Over time, I published more than 40 articles, which is many and few at the same time, especially when I’ll consider my approach to writing.

The start wasn’t easy since I hadn’t picked any niche or the main topic. I collected some ideas for articles I could write about. I narrowed the scope to the programming field, but as time went by, I realized that there are plenty of other exciting topics, which, unfortunately, don’t fit into my blog.

Now, I’d like to set up new rules for myself to liberate my writings and thoughts, making this blog my unique place on the Internet, once again.

Before you start your blog, you have to perform a set of essential choices – topics you want to write about, domain name, and the way you’ll publish your content. I choose the self-hosted WordPress platform with a slightly customized theme that I found on the Internet.

After more than two years of blogging, I migrated all my content to Hugo. In this article, I would like to show you why I decided to move on from WordPress to Hugo – a static page generator.
