How do acquire new, loyal subscribers if your site is “a little annoying to people who are not [your] loyal subscribers?”
- boplicity 6y agoEver heard of sales and marketing?
- jagged-chisel 6y agoSales and marketing don’t get me past that annoyance that sends me to a competitor.
- srg0 6y agoAs long as the competitors are no better, there is little risk.
- xorfish 6y agolike lwn.net? A local digital, ad free and independent magazine (republik.ch) has the same model. Everyone with a link can access an article. Everyone with a subscription has access to the links for the articles and can share them.
- StillBored 6y agoI think LWN is more like PBS/NPR/wikipedia/etc in that the content is generally free (although a little less so that the examples). It has "supporters" who pay too keep them running because they value the unique perspective in a niche.
