I wrote 100 articles in 100 days!
Hey guys,
Just wanted to share this amazing news, I've been an Indiehacker since starting my project: https://daily-dev-tips.com/
I started this whole project to keep me sane during Lockdown, (and yes we are still in Lockdown).
But loving the site so much now, I can't even stop, the number of people that leave wonderful comments, ask questions and just send positives vibes is amazing.
To be honest, every now and then it gets a bit stressful when i don't have a backlog of articles but it always seems to work out.
Here are some of the numbers up till now:
- 103 articles written
- 58 MailChimp subscribers
- 855 twitter followers
- 425 Instagram followers
- 3990 users (GA)
- 4936 sessions (GA)
A big shout out to IH as well learned so much on the way and pretty sure I'll keep on learning from everyone in the community.
Great achievement. This is a great example of consistency building up over time. Well done @DailyDevTips
Thanks man! Consistency is key
A hundred congratulations! keep it up mate! I hope you tweet every one of them every day!
Yes man! I even try and do 2/3 tweets about the topic a day.
That's great! Congrats
That's amazing!! Not an easy task to accomplish, and I think the long-tail gains will be awesome.
Hopefully, I just hope it helps some beginners.
Woww Achievement
Thanks :D
what do you do with the GA stats?
I don't really action on it now, also not sure where to start to be honest.
And tips?
ignore it until you need it then.
An article a day for 100 days is actually insane! You're a star Chris. The writing you've put out from the few I've read is also really useful. Super inspired, keep at it :)
Thanks! Glad the articles come across as useful.
Woahh... 100 articles in 100 days? it seems very hard to do on me.
Any tips on how you can achieve that consistency? ;)
Hey! Yes, the consistency is just commitment.
I have to finish the article day before, and luckily my girlfriend understands this. As for example, we will be going away over the weekend, so I'll make those articles upfront.
It's really just about getting yourself to do it every day (like going to work) and working out.
Amazing! Regardless of the length, writing an article per day is a great achievement that only demonstrates your commitment and consistency :)
Thanks! I think the shorter articles even work better, people love micro-content, Sometimes I write an article and it turns out too long so I will split it out over 2 days.
How many page views? Good job and keep it up!
Very good question, can't believe I missed that: 8,367
i really think you can increase email subscribers a lot, on my blog flutternerd.com i get most of my subscribers 95% from the home page offer,
While i share article links only to fb groups and my twitter(130+ followers),
still i have collected 149 subscribers (convertkit) in last 17 days with 6 blog posts.
Also try creating a facebook group worked for me alot i collected 200 email leads from fb group to mailchimp in last 17 days.
Hey!
Do you mean the Bootcamp CTA? I do feel I can get more subscribers, so I will perhaps indeed try to get a better CTA on the homepage.
I did do a lot of articles sharing in relative groups on FB, but not all appreciate it.
Very nice man! impressive results.
I do have a Facebook group, but I only attracted 1 person?
Not sure how it would work better?
And tips on where to directly improve in subscribers?
improve in subscribers? do you mean getting more then, for your home page i will recommend to add a offer something people in your niche will be interested in &
for facebook group initially getting 1000 will take the most time once that is done if you can have good engagement in you group fb will promote it for you for last few days i am getting 100+ requests a day.
Holy moly, good job!
Thanks! 🤟
Oh man. I have ultimate respect for you.
I've tried to push myself to be regular with blogging so many times and have failed miserably.
Congratulations and keep up the good work.
Keep in mind I started another blog before this: https://thetodoist.com/
Ofcourse these are more "designed" articles, longer and took way more effort in making, but the results where a bit "meh" so this one actually started as a fun side gig, but works waaay better.
Amazing. Great job
Thanks! 🥳
Good work Chris, consistency is key for sure. How do you see the site developing over the next few months, any new ideas/plans?
Hey!
Hopefully, really grow the audience, I would love to build a community on Discord/Slack or something.
Perhaps even some courses
But for now, just keeping this going as is, I did try and do guest blogs on the major sites but so far no success in getting accepted.
Sounds like a good plan. Good luck!
Wow! Congrats Chris! Consistency is key!!
100%, Still have to find the day where I just can't post an article. Can only imagine how bad it must make me feel.
Yes, I was impressed some weeks ago when you said you post every single day. I’m struggling with my weekly posts haha
Ah yes! So what is it your struggling with, finding the content of the actual writing part?
first editions I wrote about pre-internet companies and now, I'm writing about my personal/professional story, how I launched a b2b company in the past, the product development, etc. But not sure if I should write about myself. I also want to help others, maybe sharing others works, rather than talking about myself?
awesome!!!
Thanks man 🤟
That's awesome (also very helpful, I've been doing a lot of vanilla JS lately.)
Keep it up man.
Ah nice! Vanilla JS is the best JS
Wow, that's an amazing achievement, @DailyDevTips! Loved the dark mode on the site btw :)
Thanks! I sometimes even forgot I have a light mode
Haha xD
That's a wonderful habit you seem to have now, keep going!
Thank you @rosiesherry! Will do my best in keeping it up
That is amazing, @DailyDevTips! Congratulations. 100 articles in 100 days is a great accomplishment to reach.
Hey man, thanks! Yes very happy with it! 🤟
