I have worked on this side project for few days. I initially started to collect for myself to find advice and save it for later use. But I realised it could help so many like me.
Please provide feedback if I need to make any changes.
It looks good, but it somehow feels.. off? Like one of those online marketing / make money online quick products - but with a nicer skin.
Here's how my thought process went:
"Oh nice! Curious to see what this is."
"Huh? Free now? $10 later? Limited time offer?" (instant irk)
"So what are these, let's see.. oh, links."
At this point I asked myself the question: who are you? Why should I trust your curation? You gave me nothing yet expected me to be overjoyed with a $10 discount. Clicking a few links did not change this feeling. Nor did your "My comments"
How this would have gone down better with me personally: Just share the whole list in a blog post! Then if I like it, pitch me a newsletter at the bottom where you will send new free weekly / monthly lists to and mingle that with advertising. Or $2/mnt for access to a weekly / monthly updated list behind a paywall that I can search myself.
You've done a nice job with the product (curation) - so my interest's peaked. The packaging / framing ruined it for me.
You're essentially packaging other people's "output" that's out there for free - so for me personally you'd need to do a lot more convincing to have me pay you for work and insights that not you but others had.
