Good to know, I’ll give it a watch here eventually 😄

Have you had a chance to watch it? I’ve heard it’s underwhelming from a couple buddies but I haven’t seen it yet.

Totally agree. I switched because I came to realize that elementor was bloated and slowed down the website.
That realization showed me that I wasn’t even using 70% of elementor’s features.
Which begs the question why they’re there and not some kind of addition for specific situations.

I appreciate this.
I am currently learning html and css.
My plan is to continue to JS and PHP once I have a solid foundation of the first two.

My main peeve with Gutenberg is driven by my experience in elementor.
When you start in Wordpress, everyone tells you to use beaver builder or elementor. Once you explore Gutenberg, it feels so drought.
Your point of responsiveness is accurate. But I believe I just need more experience with it.

I agree, I mainly use Gutenberg and generate press/blocks in an effort to keep the website quick.
I’m coming to the understanding that Gutenberg really becomes amazing when you have a good grasp of HTML, CSS, JS. Which I’m currently learning.

I appreciate this advice.
I’ve spent some time on other builders, mainly Wix and Squarespace and I still remember Weebly when it was mainstream 😔
A little time in Shopify as well, although not enough to warrant any opinions on the platform.

Thats great! Your experience greatly overshadows mine, any advice for someone who is 2 years into WordPress?
I enjoy working with WP.
Biggest pet peeve right now is how far behind I feel Gutenberg is.
I’d love a super fleshed out core builder. Which is hopefully what they’re working towards.

Exactly, which is why Spotify is great for exposure.
But the compensation you get compared to the exposure you get can make it difficult for smaller artists to sustainably make music.
So diversifying may be necessary, which is why all these other ways of monetizing are important.
None are perfect

Fair enough.
I suppose it’s a mix of meeting your listeners where they are and using what allows you to keep making music consistently.
Vinyls had a comeback last year.
So even that avenue is still viable.
The more options the better.

Nice! I started in social media but began picking up small website design jobs.
Eventually the website work became more sustainable and I decided to delve into WordPress specifically.
What did you do before the agency? Freelance work? In-house?

There are also a ton more indie bands than ever before.
Many not being recognized. Although, I have no clue what the ratio is 😄
I imagine Spotify is great for potential awareness of your music but not advantageous for consistent earnings.

Stream to own is a very interesting concept.
Although not inherently a bad thing, it promotes releasing more as it should diminish your recurring earnings over a long period of time.
Once your main listener base owns your discography, you won’t get many earnings after that.

This is super interesting. I’ve never been around the music industry from a distribution perspective.
I love to see all the different solutions that people are coming up with.
It’ll be interesting to see where the populous moves in the next decades.

How did you begin growing your agency? I just posted about developers have a tough time marketing themselves.
Would love to hear your insight/experience!

That’s fun! I started in social media but began learning and taking on more website projects as they came my way.
After learning 4 different platforms mildly, figured I’d delve into one. Chose WordPress.

Interesting. Is it trying to compete with music streaming in a way? Or a parallel tool for private collections.
The documentation speaks as if its goal is to change how music is listened to and shared.

3. Staying active on social media.
Previously on Twitter, I would hang around communities where people needed advice on web development.
Giving out free advice is time consuming but important to build reputation among your target market.

There are so many different types of developers.
Building relationships with an app developer may yield work for me, a web developer.
Or vice versa.
