Two last tips
Blog isn’t a must-have
Your goal is not to create articles that people won’t read. Your
goal is to create attractive & engaging content. Why spend
80% of your energy to create content that people won’t read
A little kindness
goes a long way
Just like gossip & free e-book. If you can’t write good e-book,
at least be kind to those strangers in your website.
Who knows one of them can be your lovers 💕
Thanks!
