Why documentation is important for bloggers

More often I received requests to improve website SEO or build a new website or improve an existing one. One common problem with lot of those website owners and bloggers is they do not have any documents about their expectations. They say do it best, do it as you like, I mean business. Or maximum they present some similar site.

Imagine a legal professional showing you a similar site and its about a hotel or resort.

That is not the story of most novice only. Even people in IoT business since over a decade and software professionals act numb. This simply put off me.

Whenever you start a blog or website, ask yourself

  1. Why I am creating this website?
  2. Who are my prospects?
  3. What I expect from this website?
  4. How this website well fulfill my expectation?
  5. How I want this site to look like?
  6. How I will promote this website?
  7. How often I will need upgrade?
  8. How much budget and time I can allocate for this?
Write down answers to above questions and any additional one that you have? To help you design part find a similar site. And mark the changes those you want in the layout etc. If you are solo chose your theme very carefully so you can customize it whenever you like. If you are a team, engage designers, developers, writers, Social Media team etc in discussion. Do the documentation first. This will help you in building your blog and online business.

Do not jump on the project without brainstorming else you will end up in trouble. Starting a blog or any IoT project without documentation is the first step towards failure. And if you are a beginner ......., ......., ........

How to get quality traffic on a single page website that converts

Single page website? Not a bad idea. May be you want to sell your products online. You can not write too much as you are too busy in creating and modifying your product. And you need to travel a lot for promotions. Outsourcing could be one of the answer but if your budget is tight then hiring a freelancer may drain your money. And writing regular blog post would be tough. In such a situation one page website can serve the purpose. It will be easy to update especially if its cms based may be like wordpress for example. Its one page website with simple product picture, detailed description, ways to order and customer review. You are not tech savvy and don't want to invest too much on website's geeky things. One page is enough for you. Its doable, but without traffic how will you generate online sales. That is the question right? I said quality traffic that converts and make your bank account numbers increase. After all you mean sales. Its a good idea that you want to focus on you...

OneUp Today: Using AI to Make Reddit Outreach More Targeted, Personal, and Measurable

   For indie hackers and solopreneurs, finding early customers is often harder than building the product itself. Reddit can be a strong channel because it is full of niche communities where people openly discuss problems and ask for recommendations. The catch is scale. Manually scanning threads, writing thoughtful replies, following up in DMs, and tracking outcomes quickly turns into hours of daily work, and it is difficult to measure what is actually working.

That makes it valuable for early-stage products, es...
