Free Online Platforms to Publish Your Blog as a Developer

  2. Dev.to: Dev.to is a community-based platform specifically designed for developers. It allows you to publish technical articles, tutorials, and discussions. It has a supportive developer community and provides an easy way to share your content with others. You can create an account, write your blog posts, and obtain links to share on your website.

  3. Hashnode: Hashnode is another platform for developers to publish their blog posts. It offers features tailored for developers, such as code formatting, syntax highlighting, and the ability to embed code snippets. You can sign up, create your blog, and share links to your articles on your website.

  4. GitHub Pages: If you prefer to have full control over your blog and website, you can use GitHub Pages to host your blog directly from a GitHub repository. You can create a repository, add your Markdown blog posts, and configure GitHub Pages to generate a website for you. This way, you can have a personalized domain and complete control over the content and design.
