July 25th: Weekly Design Links
“Freedom is something that dies unless it’s used.” – Hunter S. Thompson
So after all my little tweaks I’ve seen much better numbers with the move to Tuesday and the new layout. Maybe I should have split those moves across a few weeks to verify my hypothesis but it’s done and I’m comfortable with the results so far. Content is king–but distribution is important also.
If you like what you see here — go to CreativeLinks.Club and sign up for the email list. You’ll get five art & design links everyday. Onward and upwards to this week’s links.
