0.000 HBDI Posted On Medium.com For The First Time Today...Here's Why
 **[Today I posted my first article on Medium](https://medium.com/@dappcentral.io/weekly-dappcentral-wrap-up-18-07-18-ac4b53481a38)**...you will understand **why** if you read the whole article. For some reason, something changed in me this week. It was a complete transformation of how I see my relationship with the Steem blockchain. And it's all @Steempress-io's fault. ## DAppCentral.io Is Born And With It...A New Vision If you haven't visited [dappcentral.io](dappcentral.io) powered by [SteemPress](https://wordpress.org/plugins/steempress/), stop by and check it out. For now, it's simply a personal blog where I spend time reviewing DApps(Decentralized Applications) but the vision is to build this into a thriving community of DApps enthusiast. ## So What Changed? I've been blogging on steemit.com for 2 years now...for a grand total of 3675 posts(including comments). Last week, I bought hosting and launched Wordpress, installed Genesis Framework and a few of my favorite plugins. I realized that with my blog, I now **own a piece of property** on the internet. I have total control over the design, the infrastructure and the SEO...**I can actually build a brand**. The time I spend on each article as quadrupled. Somehow because I now blog on my own domain, I am much more careful about the quality of my output. ## Growing An Audience I really enjoy being an established author on the Steem blockchain. I have 17000 followers and I get a good amount of views and comments everytime I write. I love reading your comments and interacting with you guys. For this reason, I'm really looking forward to the future features of SteemPress for complete 2-way integration. But to build the community that I want to build, I have to reach beyond the Steem Community and go where the people most likely to like my content are. In the DApp world, I have to go to Medium and Reddit. So moving forward, I'll have a weekly wrap-up covering the top 3 articles I'm most proud of and see if I can get some traction from Medium. ## Conclusion - Something is Brewing... Now that I'm in the Wordpress world, I realize the potential there for the Steem blockchain is HUGE...I definitely want to launch a business that will offer a killer plugin that will fill a need in the market. I'll stay silent for now but I'm beyond excited about it. As soon as an alpha is ready, I will let you know.
