E-book for self-taught devs
Set up a landing page for an e-book: https://self-taught.dev.
The target audience is self-taught developers who haven’t landed their first job yet.
The goal of the book is to give people actionable advice to get the confidence and skills they need to get that first job.
Would love your brutal and honest thoughts.
Thanks!
I don't have any brutal feedback! Nice and sleek site.
You address your target customer clearly and their pain-point as soon as you land on the page. Good job with that. It's short sweet and to the point. I hate having to scroll for a full minute to find what I'm looking for.
I think the book itself will have a large target market that is probably underserved in this regard. You should focus on concrete steps that you can take and realistically accomplish in the order presented in the book.
Signed up to the mailing list!
Thanks @findingnino! Appreciate the positive words :)
(Btw, I don't see you on the mailing list yet... did you get the confirmation email?)
No confirmation email but just tried again and it says I'm already subscribed!
I used my personal email n*****@gmail.com
Hmm, blast. I see you in the pending list now.
The email should come from spencer@self-taught.dev. Maybe it got flagged as spam? :(
There it is! That's not great news though...
Should be confirmed now.
What are you using to send your confirmation emails?
Woo! Glad it came through.
EmailOctopus ... they've usually been pretty speedy for me before. Dunno why it's slow now ...
I meant there it is like I found it in the spam folder! On the bright side, looks like it did come through right away lol
I've just started using EmailOctopus as well... uh oh.
Could your .dev domain maybe have something to do with it?
Yeah maybe. :(
Could be the .dev domain. I just added a little comment in the confirmation message to suggest checking spam, just in case.
