You probably know that space pretty well then. Would you be willing to write that list and post it on HN or on your blog?

- DanLivesHere 16y agoI'd be glad to. I don't really use my blog. I could do it as an HN post, but that'd be a bit too self-serving....
- mattmiller 16y agoIf you tell me something I don't know and want to know I am happy for it to be 'self-serving'. Some things I would like to know (disclose what you are comfortable with): how to you monetize? How do you acquire users? How much (assuming you buy traffic)?
- DanLivesHere 16y agoRight now, I don't monetize much. I occasionally add in an Amazon affiliate link. I acquire subscribers in many ways, but I've bought very little. I spent $20 on a reddit ad which netted me (I think) 3 subscribers -- that's 100% of my marketing budget to date. The most effective ways: * I syndicate posts to certain blogs, asking the blogger to plug the newsletter in exchange for letting him or her run the whole post for free. * Word of mouth and asking readers to tell their friends about it. * Links to individual issues, which have on them subscription boxes and links to the archives.
