Ribbonfarm gets a lot of good inbound link love, but very little direct media coverage. The only major coverage we've had is a feature in a German newspaper (FAZ)
Wonder if we should own this underground status or fish shamelessly for more visibility 🤔
What are the tradeoffs?

It's actually an honor to be able to produce meaningful content and remain underground. Everyone is so hungry it's turned the hustle into a premium mediocre webinar presented by a bevy of Joel Osteen clones.

Dammit. Wonder if I can sell some of our surplus honor on eBay 🤔

I spent a fair amount of time fishing around for this and I found that the only two benefits are
1. Backlinks for SEO
2. Useful social proof that increases conversion rates on other products

and (2) is only true if the market you are selling into care about social proof. I suspect most people care more than they let on, but still sort of dubious to me how much this matters.

Go around bragging about being underground and the media hits will roll in. Nothing the media loves more than being baited.
