Yes. I don't write for others though. I write because:

- It helps me gather my thoughts together and reflect on where I am.

- It helps me get better at writing and communicating.

- It helps me stay accountable for a few things. I like to write about success, failures, lessons learned etc and sometimes those things keep me accountable.

- It helps me learn better. Let's say you are writing about a technical topic. Now you will have to go and learn/relearn a few things related to it as you write about it.

If you write because you want to be found through SEO, that is hard in 2024 because Google search is now a shitfest with crappy ads first and real organic stuff doesn't even show until 6-7 entries.
