learn.garysimon.net | Learn how to Design with Gary Simon

My site ranks well for prominent keywords relating to logo design and web design tutorials.. Between logo tutorial and site tutorial keywords I get around 700 uv's a day.

I've been thinking on how to best monetize the traffic. For months I've been promoting Learn Web Design & Logo Design | Professional Video Tutorials directly on the tutorial pages which have done well (about 20 orders a month).

So now I've launched something new that I hope will ultimately lead to more video tutorial purchases. Basically it's a free service where aspiring designers signup, design a mock proposal and I critique them.. Most of the entries I know will benefit from my video tutorials so I'm going to be giving them a mention in most of my critiques...

I'll let you guys know how it ends up doing in terms of converting. I think the personal approach will do well.

Any comments based on the frontend? :)
 


Sounds like a great idea. I am a freelance designer as well (not so much anymore since I discovered AM) and I watched your video on vector tracing and thought it was really well put together. Good luck!
