350 Reasons To Subscribe to the SEO Theory Premium Newsletter
Since I launched the SEO Theory Premium Newsletter last year I have published over 60 issues (approximately 1 each week) and over 350 articles (including the articles going out in the next issue). Although I haven’t promoted the newsletter as much as I should, it has done pretty well despite the setback of having the original distribution service (LETTER.LY) close up shop. The original service required you to pay for your subscriptions through Amazon Payments. Now subscribers pay through PayPal (and you do not have to have a PayPal account if you have a standard credit card like a Mastercard or Visa). To date the newsletter has included over 40 Tech Tips articles covering topics like “Managing WordPress Plugins”, “IP Address Mapping”, “Hotel Internet Service Upgrades”, and “Fast Cleanup for Old Web Design” among others. More than 60 detailed SEO questions have been featured in the newsletter as well, dealing with subjects like “How Can I Differentiate My Listings?”, “Examples of Possible User Engagement Signals”, “Does Infinite Scrolling Hurt SEO?”, “Does Google Prefer Deep Content for Questions?”, “How to Reduce Main Navigation on a Large Website”, and “Is It Worthwhile to Update Old Links?”. The questions keep on coming. One […]
