The Power of Trends
summary
Auth0 starts at 1,500 monthly signups and runs iterative experiments: product blog posts raise pageviews 4% but not signups; greenfield content (tutorials) uses Google Trends, GitHub Trending, JS Weekly and Nuzzel to pick topics and improves conversion but lacks reach; adding SEO optimizations and targeted distribution (Reddit, Hacker News, LinkedIn) lifts pageviews 10% and signups 7%; analysis shows one article converts 0.1% while seven convert 9.8%, so Auth0 launches series, browser push notifications, a $200 guest-author program and an ambassador speaker program to scale signups to +15% monthly.
