I spent another 100,000 sats on a zap-vertising experiment…

And I think I proved that advertising on Nostr actually works…

Here’s:

1️⃣ What I did

2️⃣ The results

3️⃣ What I learned

1️⃣ What I did:

I sent 4105 zaps over the course of 3 days for a total of 112,000 sats.

Each zap contained a link for a blog post:

zapvertising-experiment.carrd.co

My goal was to see if I could get a reasonable cost per click (CPC)…

2️⃣ The results:

During the campaign I had a total of 71 unique visitors to the page.

CPC was 1578 sats or $1.50 usd.

I also gained 245 followers from that campaign.

These CPCs are in line with other ad platforms which validates the overall concept for me.

3️⃣ What I learned / brain dump:

- Results were better than expected.

- I thought there might have been a bit of negative push back (however none received).

- There is a chance I am significantly underreporting and google analytics isn't picking everything up (surprised to see 3-4x the number of new followers vs. clicks 🤔)

- THERE IS SOMETHING HERE. I still don’t know exactly what the model looks like, how it scales, but there is something to be uncovered.

- Right now, this can’t be done at scale… in the future it could. I spent ~$100 and it took me multiple days. In the future there will be ways to allocate +$10,000 per day here. For context of where we are at right now, Nostr daily zap totals are around 750,000 sats - about $675 - see stats.nostr.band/ for that data)

- Something feels off with the format… simply paying someone and sending them a link… The p2p model feels right, but the format feels off.

More to come 🫡

Let me know your thoughts 👇

You didn't take the nostr:npub1qqqqqqyz0la2jjl752yv8h7wgs3v098mh9nztd4nr6gynaef6uqqt0n47m factor into account in your calculation. If I hadn't read his answers, I wouldn't have clicked on your link.

KYC here. KYC there. KYC everywhere. 😤

If this takes hold, no one wants to become a politician anymore, folks.

Great job!👏

A Story Never Told
(because it went wrong)

In 2020, I set out to protest against the imprisonment of Assange at the Brit Awards. Our plan was to project "Free Assange" onto the stage during the live show. We successfully made it to the red carpet, but that was where our progress halted. Security confiscated half of our equipment. The lenses we managed to sneak inside were „unfortunately“ too weak. Perhaps it was for the best, as disrupting other people's parties isn’t my style. (Looking back, I realize I was quite fortunate. Disrupting such an expensive BBC production could have been quite costly.)
In the end, I resorted to simply holding my sign up to the camera. It was quite disheartening, as it seemed that 99 out of 100 attendees had no idea who Assange was.

That evening, it became clear to me that the real enemy was ignorance.

I’ve just come to the realization that I can finally share all the videos from our Free Assange projects without fear of censorship or being banned. So many years have passed, filled with countless memories. Assange is free today. Regardless, giving up was never an option!

I take great pride in my family, who stood together and supported the fight against injustice. I vividly recall the day we carried Davide's "Anything to say" statue up the mountain in our home village. My father pulled me aside in our 200-year-old living room and warned, "Be careful of the intelligence agencies!" We shared a brief, knowing glance before bursting into laughter together.
