# 10 Years of Blogging

[This was my first blog post](https://kaspars.net/blog/web-development/optimize-for-search-engines-or-users) on this day ten years ago. [This WordPress plugin](https://github.com/kasparsd/yearly-archive-shortcodes) tells me the following statistics:

> In 10 years since September 9, 2007 I have written [384 blog posts](https://kaspars.net/blog/archive) mostly on Wednesdays and Thursdays (one post per 1 week on average) which have received 1720 comments. Posts are composed of 56412 words and 269 images in total with 146 words and 1 image per post on average which would be a book of 225 pages.

It has been an amazing ride and I’m really excited about the addition of [the video blog](https://kaspars.net/go/vlog) that I started on January 1st, 2017.
