Summary

The Zapier blog's journey from a small, non-existent readership to a valuable resource for customers is a story of experimentation and improvement. In June 2013, the team decided to get serious about creating high-quality content to build a sustainable readership. They analyzed successful blogs from other companies, such as Moz and Unbounce, and implemented changes to increase the quality and consistency of their content. The results were promising, with a significant increase in readership and engagement over the next few quarters. Despite some setbacks, including inconsistent posting and relying too heavily on individual hits, the team persevered and continued to refine their strategy. By focusing on creating top-notch content, designating a theme for each month, experimenting with guest posts, and sharing results to help others learn from their success and mistakes, Zapier aims to continue growing its blog into a reliable marketing channel in 2014.
