I added a blog component to the website so I should write something. Right? In this first entry, I’ll quickly cover the 5W1H (sort of) as it pertains to the creation of this website; Historium Content.
Who – This website is very much a solo endeavour. The website and all the content is essentially brought to you by a mid-50s Canuck.
What – Historium Content is where I sell or give away the history focused pre-written content I cobble together. The “product” is geared toward websites, publications, blogs, and also as educational resources.
Why – I enjoy learning about history, I like to research, and I’ve always wanted to build & run a website. Currently, I work full-time but I’m nearing retirement. I thought I’d put those 3 interests together now and – for the time being – tinker around, fine tune and practice.
Once I’ve left the 9 to 5 behind, I do intend on devoting more time and focus to Historium Content.
When – The website quietly launched in late December 2024. I produce new content on an irregular basis.
Where – I don’t have much of a social presence. I have this blog and – for the time being – you can find me on Minds and Bluesky. Most of my efforts are spent on researching, and putting together the pre-written content I sell here.
How – I get ideas for content from the stories I hear, the things I read or whatever comes to mind. I then surf the internet for sources – the more the better – on the topic. Once I’m satisfied I feed it all to an AI and engage in a long back and forth exercise in order to have an informative article or post.
And there you have it!
Of course, as time passes and Historium Content evolves, I will likely need to revise this post.
Stay tuned!
