Hi Devs,

I'd like to discuss the value of the Solr blog at
https://solr.apache.org/blog.html

We started it a year ago with a great idea that if we build it, content
will come. But it looks like the breakdown of posts was:

2 meta posts about the blog
3 posts about C/C conferences (2 of which are outbound links)
7 additional outbound links

So 75% of our content is outbound links. Is there value in providing these
outbound links rather than linking directly to those blogs on our Resources
page? Maybe these outbound links to individual posts help with SEO for our
authors, I don't know enough about this topic to speak confidently.

Maybe the "join us at upcoming conference" can be part of the News feed?
And conference recaps? Or if we had recaps of our monthly community
meetings on the blog that would be a good venue for it.

Let's have a discussion about what can be done to improve the presentation
on our web site, having had some time to let this experiment play out.

Thanks,
Mike
