Results of my first 90 days of marketing experiments on the path to $1M

Results of the First 90 Days of Marketing Experiments - GrowthBadger

Three months ago, I launched GrowthBadger as a side project to see how quickly I can turn a blog into a $1M business -- without being a coder or having outside funding.

In the first 90 days I set out to test three things:

  1. The “Skyscraper" technique, aka “10x" content — writing a great, in-depth guide about a specific topic, and promoting that guide with the goal of getting it to rank 1st on Google for a specific keyword.

  2. Guest posting — writing articles on other blogs to spread spread awareness, drive traffic & build links.

  3. Product giveaways, which people can enter by subscribing to my email list.

Those 90 days of marketing experiments have passed, and in this post I cover the results in detail including:

  • Which article has gotten 73% of GrowthBadger’s pageviews (and which one has only gotten 1% of them)

  • The top 5 traffic sources for the site

  • The number of visitors, revenue, and email subscribers I’ve gotten so far

It also covers what I plan to test over the next 90 days. You can check it out here - https://growthbadger.com/90-day-results-dec-2018/

I'd love to get your thoughts and know if there's anything else you'd like me to test!
