I set up a blog when I realized that this project was going for the long haul, and that I was going to need to do a lot of research and a lot of work, and that I would really need to write stuff down or I would forget about it and miss it when I needed it.
And that, in the end, I could write it in a way that was publicly available so that fellow enthusiasts could benefit also. In fact I realized that proper information on the subject was difficult to come by, especially wargaming related (with the expection of the very good Rams Ravensband Wrecks!), so sharing my research could be useful.
I do get little feedback but as was already said blogs are not about that, you have FB for that. I do get satisfaction from views, which are now fairly regular, and the odd fellow who writes me telling me how much he liked this or that - these guys makes my day! BRE Wix is a fairly good platform, I find it easy and functional.
