What it does

Indie Blogs is a platform that aims to level the playing field for blogs by allowing lesser-known bloggers to be found outside of Google. It's a great place to find high-quality blogs you wouldn't otherwise come across.

  • Discover the IndieWeb, one blog post at a time2022 · indieblog.page · ▲241

    Inspired by the "Ask HN: Share your personal site" last week, I finally came around and built a thing I wanted for a long time: a simple website to randomly explore all the awesome personal blogs without having to subscribe to them all. So this is what I built over the weekend. You click a button and indieblog.page will redirect you to a random page from a personal page... I'm happy to answer any questions you might have.

    With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently.

Blog Surf is an attempt to organize all of the great online writing done by individuals. I launched this project last year as a directory of personal blogs [1], but have now rebuilt it from scratch into a full-text search engine for blog posts. You can search for blog posts, and filter by publish date and…

  • An index of indie web/blog indexesMay 2026 · theindex.fyi · ▲154

    I saw a comment here about how there are so many indexes of indie sites, blogs, etc but there wasn't an index of all the indexes. So I built it. It doesn't require a log in, just go browse! I've curated about 30 or so, but there is a submission form if there are ones I am missing. Also happy to take UI improvements because I am not great in that area!
