I have a website I'm developing. I try to use SEMVER with any changes I make. Sometimes I'm not sure when I need to bump up the minor version. For example,

I have my website/app at v0.9.0. I have this deployed on a production site. One day, I decide to add some new functionality to the website. I add my new functionality, test it and deploy it and it works great. Since this is not a bug fix, does that mean I need to go from v0.9.0 to v1.0.0? So essentially, if I'm at vX.0.0, it only takes 10 new features to be independently added (no matter the size) in order to go to version X+1 ?

It seems like there should be some way to incrementally increase the minor version. I see a lot of people do v0.10.0 as the next version.

Is that the recommended way to do it?

No Jake, it does not mean you need to go to version 1.0.0. The next minor version after version 0.9.0 would be 0.10.0.

See https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/semantic-versioning for a nice intro.
