Here Is What a Disappointing Experiment Taught Me About Headline A/B Testing

from Grow With Less [alt+shift+b] in indiehacker

After reading about the huge conversion boosts many bloggers got after A/B testing their headlines, I assumed A/B testing the headlines of 73 articles I have published on my language learning blog French Together would be a no brainer. I could already picture myself writing a...

There’s an excellent Go testing pattern that too few people know. I can teach it to you in 30 seconds. Instead of writing Go tests like this: // The common, unrefined way. username := GetUser() if username != "dummyUser" { t.Errorf("unexpected username: got %s, want: %s",...

Communities are popular amongst founders for lots of reasons. It's usually pretty lonely to be a founder, especially if you don't live in a tech hub. Most of your friends and family don't get why you aren't just doing a job. So

Everything was going great. My blog French Together had just hit 357k monthly visitors, the French Together course had exceeded $300k in sales. Then COVID happened. My traffic slowly started to decrease, conversions got worse. I ignored it at first, I guess I was in denial. I...

When Google killed Google Reader, the bloggosphere took a severe hit and the content quality went down because there weren't enough readers to justify the effort it takes to maintain a high quality blog.

What's left is a decaying wasteland of blogs, most abandoned, a lot are now SEO spam, and 99% are not worth reading. BoredReading is a way to read the remaining great blogs that survived the ice age.

To add your favorite blog, please suggest it here! I get emails every day which helps me maintain a high quality selection of blogs!
