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