i think i might have said that 1 year ago. now i feel like the secret sauce is that there is no secret sauce except working your ass off. great products and prolific blogging are hard work, but they'll get your name out there. its that slow linear growth that is frustrating, but tried and true.

i'll admit i still read these with the hope of some magic silver bullet that gets rocket lease on track for exponential growth, but i haven't found it yet and i have nothing but respect for the founders that have it in them to relentlessly do PR and write blogs.

Oh I absolutely agree with you. It is hard work! And they deserve respect too. But unless this your first time reading startup advice the whole thing is just the same old generic stuff as always. Yeah, we know blogging is important but give us some specifics please.
