It’s great advice on how to focus on one topic, becoming a self-proclaimed expert on that topic. I particularly love this part, “Within 24 hours I had five requests for meet-ups, a conference invite, and a woman offering to cook for me. All of which, of course, were much appreciated.”
How to Get Free Traffic Without Google. Great video series that I highly recommend you take a look at. Maybe some of you already know this stuff, maybe some of you don’t. Either way, a great refresher, and highly recommended.
