Publish your writing to a domain you control, then syndicate it to several other places. If you're less than, say, 40, there's a very good chance that you will outlive Github Pages, in the same way that many of us outlived Geocities and Angelfire.

It's like owning your own home or renting.
There might be a good analogy out there, but this one is not it.

I agree. On second thought, it was a poorly chosen one.
* markdown files
* push to GitHub
* their Jekyll actions take care of the rest
I don’t see the point in paying for my own domain. I hate it that sources of great information disappear when the owner passes away. Chances are that GitHub pages will exist longer than I do. But if not, I can still move my business somewhere else.
