I got my 4th real life person to subscribe to my blog
Ok so it's not a huge deal for most people. But it has taken me years to battle with my own fears about 'what to write' and that I 'don't know enough' or am 'not interesting or helpful enough' for people to care.
While I have a solid client base in my business, content marketing has always terrified me.
Four real people chose to sign up to hear what I have to say. And every one of them is so meaningful.
We all start somewhere.
Edit probably should have linked my blog haha.
Congrats! Keep at it and writing will become easier!
Thank you! Canny's 200 words a day benchmark really helped! And I have a pretty good set up for dumping ideas / moving them across a kanban now so finding the right tactics.
Gotta start somewhere, great work! Hopefully many more to come.
Thank you Tim :)
Congrats! What does your blog's traffic look like? It would be interesting to hear about conversion rates on a blog like this.
So far, still very very small (my site homepage has just hit 1k views), but it's only a month or two in so I'm not expecting miracles. There is a very noticeable spike in traffic every time I post and then share across IH, twitter and LinkedIn (so far these are my go-to platforms) so the blog is by far the most effective thing I'm doing at the moment.
Currently in community building and major rapid experimentation phase, so working out what combo of content / title type / topic type / platform etc is the most effective and replicable.
Thank you for the question! I think it's important to be transparent about these things :)
honestly, that's very decent for just having started! Keep it up
Thank you!
That's cool! Now sending a great newsletter would be the next step, but looking at your blog you shouldn't have much trouble filling it with interesting stuff.
Thank you !
Congratulations!
Every person counts, especially the early ones
Yes I think so too - thank you!
Congratulations! 🎉
Thank you! 🙂
Can you share the link to your newsletter? I am also a real guy and might become your 5th subscriber also...
Of course! Here you are
