The Spur-G-Blog celebrated its birthday today.
The first article was posted exactly ten years ago to the day.
Who reads in the archive soon realizes that the Spur-G-Blog was a technical experiment in the beginning.
My employer wanted to change his own homepage to WordPress and I thought about trying the system privately.
As a topic our great hobby seemed to be a good choice.
That my employer himself changed to WordPress two years later.
But that was because the new system had been transferred to a new team…

Only a few weeks later – during the International Toy Fair in Nuremberg 2011 – I noticed the interest in my blog:
The number of hits became so great that it could no longer be just my own friends.

In ten years, more than 6,400 articles have been created in this one-man project.
Some longer – many shorter. Fortunately, the Spur-G blog is still very popular with readers and advertising partners.
One component of the success is probably the daily newspaper principle of the Spur-G-Blog:
Originally it was planned to post two or three articles per week.
But after just a few months, the goal changed to daily reporting.
The goal is to always post one article by 9:00 am.
On weekdays this is usually achieved much earlier.
On weekends it can happen that the 9:00 am target is not reached.
Overall I am satisfied with what I have achieved:
Neither vacation nor emergency surgery can be seen in the publications.
Only technical problems have torn the goal on a few days.

Also in the next years it should continue to pass on the Spur-G-Blog
– as long as my employer allows me to work part-time in my spare time.
And to an important goal the track G Blog holds on:
While the large publishing houses let their Internet offer disappear in the last years step by step behind a Paywall,
the track G Blog is to remain further free for the readers.
Finally the trace G Blog shows, which mad beads a free Internet can bring out.

At the end of this day the birthday child can only say „Thank you“:
To all readers, supporters and sponsors.
Without you the Spur-G-Blog would not exist.
Thanks!
