@BlendahTom yep, I have a "Classics" section where I pull articles older than a year... which usually has one or two of the top clicked links for any given issue, so definitely an interesting newsletter from @thisiskyramaya and @halbluchs.
It is kind of hibernating now, but I had a newsletter centered around this and it looked back at the best articles of Hacker News from 1, 2, 3 4, and 5...

@ReubenMetcalfe I do both CPC (through LaunchBit) and CPM. I know several others that do fixed pricing, so yeah, I would say do what works best for you.

@joewalnes awesome, glad you find it useful!
@rrhoover That is a tougher question. :) Engagement is super high in newsletters from what I've seen and I think all types can be very effective, but I've also seen some of them miss the mark.

The first issue went out almost four years ago (#187 goes out tomorrow) and currently have 25,000 subscribers. Will be glad to answer any questions about HNL or newsletters in general.
