It took passion, dedication, and some attractive writing and web design. But eventually, I, and a partner, managed to get The Metalist to a competitive 25,000 unique monthly views at its prime.

Our team researched the most up-to-date and optimized web trends to build a news page that looked attractive and was quick to load and easy to read among the graphic-heavy, slow-loading competition.

We continued to write content tapping into keywords, trends, and contacts in the metal music industry, quickly growing a loyal reader base.
