          Feedback and suggestions are very welcome (and appreciated), @swijaya. How do you think we can best make more of our members aware of this content?

          As always, I’ll be super candid and share that this content — which I think is really useful — gets virtually no visits. Our visitors go to two places on the site, (1) the deals forum — here — and (2) the Best Free Kontakt Kontakt Sample Libraries page. I was contemplating doing some graphics to promote the content on the right hand side column. I’ve been using that to make people aware of content I believe they will find valuable.

          As someone whose career has been focused on managing digital, the challenge with deals visitors is that they’re not very community-oriented; they’re transactional. They tend to come for the deals and then leave, and my objective with this passion project called LinkedMusicians is to make a non-toxic community where people who love making music AKA music producers can find like-minded musicians to talk about all things music, to grow in their knowledge of music making and production, to share knowledge, to be encouraged — and hopefully, even share their music.  Hopefully, we can even expand our understanding and be exposed to musicians from all around the world who can expose us to different genres, different artists, etc.

          So, my thought was, even people who come here just to find deals also are interested in reading / watching to learn more about products and music production. We have magazine articles, podcasts, and video feeds covering songwriting, composition, and music theory too, but I’m starting with what I think will have the most appeal, the music production content.

            BTW, while we are limited on which publications we can share, all suggestions are welcome. If there are publications you love and would like to see in the LM Knowledge Hub, please let me know.

              I think you have the idea already.

              I, too, have the deals forum bookmarked & straightly go there without going through the main page. I know you’d like for us to hang around, but, honestly, my real world just doesn’t let me. However, your original post (this thread) caught my attention, and I’ve skimmed through the articles. I didn’t know they are there, and I would never know their existence if you didn’t post about it here.

              So, yes, display those things prominently & interestingly on your two favorite sections. Like it or not, you probably need to treat the two sections as your site’s de facto homepage.

                Yep, there’s no denying that what you just wrote is true. That’s why I did kind of an internal promotion for it with this thread. Like the old saying goes, you have to fish where the fish are.
