Should I start blogging?
I created resmume.com a year ago and now the landing page is ranked on google search results especially in my region (Indonesia). I have never post a blog after resmume.com was released. I glad the resmume.com has a lot traffic from it, but I'm worried should I start blogging to keep the rank?
A story about getting paid users from the Chrome Web Store.
At first, I put Resmume on the Chrome Web Store to get a dofollow link for SEO. Since it's the Chrome Web Store, the app needed to be a browser extension, but my Resmume was web-based. So, I had to create an extension for Google Chrome. I decided it was worth the effort to get a dofollow link from domain google. I made a basic extension to help with resume creation. The extension had a dropdown menu and a contact form that sent users to the Resmume website with their contact info pre-filled. A few months later, I got an email from the Chrome Web Store about a new review. It was a good review, but I ignored it since it was just one. A few days later, there was another good review. I finally checked the Chrome Web Store dashboard and saw many users were coming from the extension. Unfortunately, I didn't set up a tracker to see these users, but I was sure some of them made purchases based on the reviews. The lesson I learned is that the Chrome Web Store can be a good place to get users.
SEO is still the best option for makers.
I follow these tips from Danny and I agree with him. https://x.com/dannypostmaa/statu... SEO is still the best choice for makers to grow their business on autopilot. I also subscribe to https://boringcashcow.com/ and https://www.starterstory.com/. The majority of successful makers are relying on SEO. Here my product https://resmume.com grows through SEO. The strategy is quite simple: 1/ Post anywhere to get backlinks.
2/ Create new landing pages to target low competition keywords.
3/ Repeat. You can check out https://sololinkpro.com to see where I post to get the backlinks.
