Here are a few 🔥 blog posts for Open Startup List:

How using the tools that you already know helped Simple Analytics grow to $5.7K MRR

How building in the open as digital nomads helped Leave Me Alone grow to 840$ MRR

How learning by doing helped BannerBear grow to 500$ MRR

Pieter Levels on how the Corona Virus affected NomadList and RemoteOK

It's been incredible ever since I've started it about 2 months ago, the amount of traction is amazing, I get blog posts written over Open Startup List and it's getting featured on Open Startups "\open" pages.

So according to google this one is by far the most viewed/clicked one:

I personally like this one: How to validate your idea with pocket money by @ctw.

Wrote this baby up when we got our first paying users, hope it helps a few out there:

Just published this last night!

How I built and shipped my first product: MeetPass. Goes into lessons learned, what worked and what didn't. Also loved writing it because it was more of a personal reflection on my learnings than anything.

I particularly enjoyed writing the Daymind case study.

I wrote about why designing for open source can be so difficult. It reached the front-page on HN and still brings in a steady flow of visits.

I started to write a follow up to it going over some solutions and techniques but I haven't had time to finish it yet.

I wrote a huge 😎 guide for helping newcomers becoming amazing streamers.

I worked hard for two weeks, wrote examples and made a followup checklist-site for people to keep it handy on their phone/browser tab.

The result?

This one gets me thousands of views and is #1 on Google for streamer tips keywords.

Hi! I just wrote my first Blog Post. It's about Lead Generation without a Budget.
Hope you find it useful for your projects!

Article about Startup Visa

I tend to write a lot about soft skills, but this specific one is about UX / Interaction design, so it might be useful somehow:

Why Apple should put a second front camera on the iPad?

It is not on a business topic, but rather a little experiment I was curios about. I think you may appreciate it :)

This is my most successful blog post: https://www.followchain.org/list-of-instagram-follow-for-follow-groups/.

It's basically a list of places where you self-promote your Instagram. This is especially helpful if you're looking to grow your Instagram audience either for yourself or your business.

I'm more focused on marketing than product - here's a post I wrote on a couple word change we made to our home page above the fold that had big results when tested

I posted this two days ago, I just came back from a walk with my dogs, went to Wallgreens to buy toilet papers after. Guess what, there was none. Its a fun little blog post that we put together to experiment with some of our ideas. We had 500 visitors the first day. It's kind of fun, I am liking it.

What do you think ?

I'm pretty proud of this since getting non-competiting but truly complimentary product founders to team up on cross-promotion is tough. I explain how I made that happen, and how you can too: https://medium.com/hashtag-academy/how-to-replicate-the-viraltag-rite-kit-cross-promotion-success-58432dd104f8

If you see it and if you have a Medium account, the post is SO lonely; would appreciate if you held down the hand thingee at the bottom a few seconds. (Thanks!)

I shared my own technique to choose an idea to pursue: https://www.saasforge.dev/blog/how-to-figure-out-which-idea-worth-to-implement:-a-math-approach

Here's something more personal: Discovering I Have ADHD & What I'm Doing About It

This is one of my favorites. I wrote it back in 2014-ish and just started sharing it again. It's based on the "smart creative" archetype that companies like Google and Amazon try to hire.

I got a lot of traction with: The Huge List Of Code You Need To Write To Start A SaaS

I interviewed 21 experts to get their feedback on what they believe is the best way to approach startup content marketing and compiled their ideas :)

I bought up a misspelled domain that someone with 670k+ Twitter followers posted and fixed it for him and he never said thanks 😢

Here's a beast of a breakdown on how Zapier grew to $50m ARR whilst being fully remote: https://saasmarketer.io/saas-partnership-strategy/

This is a great idea @richardchu. I recently wrote 'Building Remote Relationships' and its importance in today's environment.

I hope you enjoy!

My favourite two are:

• How This B&B Owner Became a YouTube Star
• Remote Work Can Heal America

My best one is about the podcasting industry 🎙

and how it will shine in this decade. I wrote that a few months ago, before the news broke about Joe Rogan moving to Spotify, so my predictions slowly become true - there will be major changes and rise of podcast in the next 10 years.

Hey, cool idea.

How my blog post ended up as a lecture material on one of the World’s Top 150 Universities

I've shared why it's important to blog, even if you have small audience.

We recently wrote this blog post about social media strategies for small businesses. I also posted it on Indiehacker and got some great responses.
