Remember this post about how to flip your publishing model? And the case study we looked at through the Virginia Associations of Realtors’ example?
I just came across this great post from NTEN about how they did just that.
This new strategy means we’re driving a lot of traffic to NTEN.org overall: We’re up 24% year-over-year in 2011. The blog/newsletter strategy drives most of that, as you can see from the increase in blog traffic as a percentage of total site traffic for the last few years:
2008: 17%
2009: 19%
2010: 22%
2011: 25%Most importantly, publishing more and more diverse content on the blog gives us a sense of what the NTEN community is most interested in. Then, when we compose NTEN Connect each month, instead of guessing what we should send out to our 30,000 subscribers, we can look at our blog and social media analytics data to learn what our blog readers have already found most engaging.
Go check it out! Anyone trying this?
