Hey guys… just wondering if a change to how much free stuff we offer would help attract new users to the forum.
What is it you pay your subscription for? the HTSLs? or did you subscriber for beginner courses too?
Would you be annoyed that there was too much free stuff if you where paying a subscription?
just a wee thought i was having… Might be totally fine the way it is.
I’d say dont shoot yourselves in the feet Phil.
Always need to step things up a gear… but keep the specialist stuff (HTSL’s) the way it is.
If you wanna try it with something, as new bait - Maybe the older Tut’s on Reverb, Compression etc…
See how that goes before you give away other stuff.
I dont know what your business model is right now, but here is another thing to think about. Possibly giving more away for free, however make it so that non subscribers would get advertising. Im sure your site gets a crazy amount of hits. So I would think you could make more money from advertising then a 90% subscription base.
Actually… Do you know what? We dont have the full facts here at all.
Phil, give away whatever aint selling - Thats always an option with old stock :)
You know yourself whats popular, or not 
selling advertising isnt lucrative unless your in the millions of hits per week… which are absolutely nowhere near.
I guess im kinda thinking that if you give the really basic stuff away free it teaches them the basics and gets them to the level where they ee the value of the HTSLs etc.
