Does it help to share your knowledge online as a developer? Absolutely.

A thread with the 5 benefits of sharing your knowledge online.

1. You deepen your understanding of the subject

When you teach a topic, it forces you to research it to ensure you do not teach the wrong things.

That forces you to go more in-depth and learn that subject better.

Moreover, you might learn new things about that subject!

2. You may get opportunities such as jobs and paid gigs

Sharing your knowledge online is a great way to open yourself to opportunities.

Having a blog and/or a video channel is like having a personal recruiter search for opportunities for you non-stop.

3. Becoming part of a community

Another benefit is that you can join communities. You meet and hang out with like-minded people.

Being around knowledgeable people, you learn and improve better. They can guide you in the right directions, and you can do the same for others.

4. You help other people

Eventually, people will stumble upon your piece of content, and hopefully, they can learn something from it.

It's a fantastic feeling knowing that your content helped other people too!

You can help a lot of people by simply sharing your knowledge.

5. You save yourself future troubles when you encounter the same problems

It's likely to run into an issue more than once. You would waste your time solving the same problem multiple times

Besides that, other people likely have the same problem. Thus, you help others, as well.
