What is the Simple Web?
The Question
How can I get visitors, subscribers, comments, inbound links, and people saying good things about what I do?
The Answer
Evaluate every action, every possible change, and every existing feature of your blog or website, and ask: Is it gripping? Can the reader resonate with it? Does it make it easy (and rewarding) to interact? And most importantly: is it easy (or rewarding) to talk about?
The above question and answer are opening paragraphs in Skellie’s free, 27-page eBook version of a post series that appeared on Skelliewag in 2007.
As bloggers and webmasters, we want most or all of these things: more visitors, more subscribers, more comments, more money, more inbound links, and more people saying good things about us. Our wants aren’t in question. It’s the how that gets us. It’s the how that has us reading a dozen blogs a day, trying to find the answer (or at least a little piece of it).
