I noticed something weird, something unnatural and alarming on my twitter profile:
Do you see what I see? No?! Let me help you out.
There you go. I'm talking about startups a lot. At least I tweet about them a hell of a lot. Almost all the time. Now what I'm going to do about this is I'll start the Startup Frenzy series in which I summarise my favourite articles about startups I read. I'm going to do this bi-weekly but no money back guarantee, okay?
As for the first batch:
Hope to see you next week as well ;)
Cheers,

Recently I got interested in how companies get to grow the number of their users, thus started to dig through the web to find articles on the topic. I quickly realised that there is tons of relevant information out there on growth hacking but it's very challenging to filter out the most outstanding and rewarding ones.
The articles I find most appealing are usually stuffed with practical advice on how to get users, covering a wide range of growth hacking methods, from the very basics of growth hacking - SEO optimisation - to the advanced techniques, even showing off some tricks people would refer to as unethical - you remember the AirBnb vs. Craigslist story, right?
So here is the list of my favourite practical growth hacking articles:
And finally one really interesting article on how to validate a business idea without building a product by @adii.

Why are we doing what we are doing?
For the appreciation and acknowledgement.
