Hello @achim03

Glad to have read this thought-provoking post

A good solution is to make them join your list. You can simply use a standard signature where you promote a free e-book, a free online course and you put a link to your lead capture page. So with every article, you grow your chances to bring people to your list.

I really like what you have said here. I admit I didn't give that much thought, and now that you have mentioned it, I regret not having thought of it earlier. I always reasoned that if I write for my readers here on Steem, it will help me get better upvotes​, but I didn't look at it in the long run.

Thanks for the eye-opener buddy. Cheers.
