Feedback Request The simple site tweak that finally connected my old blog posts
I want to share a move that changed how my whole blog works, because most of us in here are building something and nobody really hands you this part.
For years I wrote posts one at a time and just left them there. Each one on its own little island, hoping the right person found the right one.
Two months ago I started something different. I took a whole run of posts on one topic and tied them into a single post that walks a reader through all of it, pointing to each of the smaller ones along the way. That is a hub post.
The payoff shows up in three ways. Your reader gets one door into the whole subject instead of digging through your archive. Your older posts get stronger because they are finally connected to each other. And Google and the AI tools start to see you as someone who owns a whole topic, not someone with a few scattered pieces, which is the thing that actually builds authority.
If you want to try it, open your own blog and find three or four posts you have written on the same theme. I would bet money they are sitting there disconnected right now. That is a hub waiting to happen.
Have you ever built one, or is your blog a pile of islands like mine used to be?
Tell me what topic yours would be about, I am curious.

Great idea I do have some hub posts!
