An important part of our open-source community is answering questions on the Open edX forum. I’d like to build on this and turn some of our helpful answers into blog posts. Both EduNext and Appsembler do a great job of taking commonly asked questions and turning them into informative articles, and I’d like to do the same. Our goal is to be helpful to non-technical users specifically.
With that in mind, could you share the best, most interacted with, and most helpful forum posts you’ve created? Let’s compile them into a collection so we can expand on the content and turn them into some great blog posts!
Just a quick note: all of this is related to our Marketing Discovery for 2025. I don’t have enough budget for additional team reviews at the moment, but let me know if you feel strongly about reviewing, and I’ll see if there’s any flexibility. I’m currently chatting to someone who may be able to review the strategy (budget depending, @tikr see conversation here), but if any of you know someone who freelances as an SEO specialist, please let me know.
I think the “top links” on Profile - braden - Open edX discussions would give a good summary of which posts (at least post you’ve added links in) got a lot of traffic:
@cassie Another approach to find good topics might be to review the educators category:
There are probably lots of questions in there, answered or not, that could be good candidates. And compared to a lot of our own answers, which often are more on the technical side, it might match the audience you are loooking for more closely.
I’m particularly looking for “less technical” posts.
