I would think that programming skill increases by programming. The design, implementation and debugging of increasingly complex applications and tools. If blogging improves organizing one’s thoughts and theoretical knowledge it should help. But doing is best.

Agree, the article mentions this in a way:

There are many ways to do so: race others in ranked online challenges, try to solve hard programming riddles, or study new paradigms. However, most programmers, whose work involves a form of writing, overlook writing itself.

The point is that sometimes that "doing" doesn't advance you, as it's not challenging anymore. Writing can be a form of deliberate effort to improve in your craft. There are many other ways to improve, the post focuses on one.
