Yes folks, I'm starting a blog.
I have this domain, easyui.dev, and its purpose has been selling Tailwind CSS templates. Obviously without much success.
So I'm thinking I'll repurpose the domain into a blog, with both free and paid articles.
If you're interested in joining me writing some articles, please can you DM me.

This is just an idea but maybe it could go further 🤔.

PS. Buy me a coffee, it will really help with ghost hosting costs

I would suggest you write the articles, cross post them here (with the canonical URL set) and to other aggregator sites and not worry about getting money from the articles themselves yet. You need a good following and reputation before you start putting paywalls in front of content.

Leave the templates in the site that you want to sell, once you have a decent readership the sales will follow, especially if you write about advanced techniques that you use to design sites (and then gently point people to one of your templates as an example).

Read a load of stuff on marketing, conversion rate optimisation etc. and learn how to get more eyeballs, convert eyeballs into revenue and follow up to upsell more products.

Remember: Good marketing > your development skills, a fact few developers care to admit.
