Random Introduction

I first got the domain markymaligmat.com around March 2021 for the purpose of putting myself online and somehow introducing my web development service.

I’ve recreated, redesigned, rebranded, and shut down this website a couple of times because I don’t feel the voice in every reiteration I made. I’ve followed countless influencers, implemented the best practices, and watched a lot of YouTube videos to get inspiration on how I will design it if I’m going to offer my service, but then again, I don’t see my soul in every iteration.

This time is going to be different.

I’ll unapologetically write just for myself, add as many pages as I want, not beg for SEO or algorithms to work in my favor, add many layers of topics along the way, make it wild, improve as I go, and welcome imperfections.

Why do this approach?

• This is the only approach that I can imagine if I want to reminisce on previous events and maybe tell myself in the future, “I couldn’t believe that I wrote this before,” or “Did I actually support this stupid idea?”
• The commitment: Since I welcome imperfection and fixing things along the way on this website. It simply means that this personal project is going to be a lifelong commitment.
• Aside from what I’m doing for a living, I think it’s a good addition to my introduction if I say, “I talk to myself on a daily basis by updating my personal website.”
• Last but not least, I want this mini-project to be my helpful companion against doom-scrolling.
