1. WHICH OF THESE RECOMMENDATIONS DO YOU AGREE WITH?
The tools shown in the video are useful to start a blog, but it’s important to explore new platforms as they appear. Blogging is moving toward a more focused audience. I agree with using social media like Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram for visibility, and organizing content through an SEO-based calendar.
2. WHAT OTHER ONES WOULD YOU ADD TO THE LIST?
I would add an indicator that evaluates the relevance and impact of a topic during the idea development process. In my opinion, the number of likes shouldn’t be the only measure of value. The fact that someone chooses to read or visit a blog already reflects interest and gives meaning to the content shared.

I usually read blogs that present new concepts or technical solutions to social problems. I find them inspiring because they combine innovation with real-world applications, demonstrating how technology and creative thinking can improve lives and communities.
4. IF YOU HAD TO START A BLOG, WHAT KIND WOULD IT BE? WHAT WOULD YOU INCLUDE?
If I started a blog, it would focus on energy sustainability. It would include technical articles, case studies, and expert interviews. I’d also add a smart search tool to highlight valuable content—like theses or patents—based on user preferences, keeping the original language and making it globally visible.
