There is some great newsletter advice in this interview.

I wholeheartedly support his belief in the massive learning potential of curating content over a long period of time. If you want to become a recognized expert in any field, curate content on that topic for many years.

Great interview with PR strategist Dayana Mayfield on how to combine the power of SEO and PR. Includes advice on how to get more targeted backlinks with specific keywords and generate publicity.

One tip is that podcast interviews can be much more effective than guest posts for backlinks.

Rand Fishkin offers some strategies for content creators in a time when the platforms make it harder than ever for others to discover your content.

This post has a specific action step for varying income levels of your business.

Here is the beginner advice:

Instead of ‘subscription fatigue,’ we’re probably seeing the opposite.

“Subscribers to one Substack are more likely to subscribe to another,” Substack spokesperson Lulu Cheng Meservey told me. “And people are more likely to subscribe to a new publication if their email and payment information is already saved from a previous subscribe.”

"I call this the “Newsletter Network Effect.” It’s not a perfect term, but what’s happening with newsletters is mirroring what happens to social networks as they expand. Just like each member of a social network makes the network more valuable, every additional newsletter writer makes reading news and analysis in the inbox more commonplace by introducing the behavior to new audiences."

Here is a selection of the best links I've found this week to level up your creator skills.
