Reflecting on 2023
Compilation of all my newsletter issues in 2023
Hey there 👋 - Amrut here!
Happy Saturday to all synced with The Tech Pulse!
Reflecting on 2023
As I plan to take the rest of 2023 off, I want to reflect on how The Tech Pulse newsletter performed in 2023.
Note: There will be no newsletter issue released next week.
In total, I published 35 newsletter issues this year. My goal was to write one weekly, providing a lot of valuable, helpful, and actionable content around the topics I am most interested in:
AWS Cloud
DevOps
Software Architecture & Engineering
Personal Growth
AI (Added recently)
I have grown from 0 → 238 subscribers.
It is not a lot, considering I started in Feb 2023. However, my audience has been highly engaged, with open rates around 40% and click-through rates (CTRs) around 4%.
Also, the growth of my newsletter has been purely organic (no paid ads), with major traffic coming from X and LinkedIn.
For me, it is a small win. However, I am happy to see my newsletter gaining traction with tremendous support from subscribers like YOU!
As you know, I have also launched a YouTube channel, which will be another traffic source for my newsletter.

Heading into 2024
I have some exciting things planned for 2024. Stay tuned!
I also plan to do newsletter issues touching on areas like:
Trends and Technological developments on the above topics of interest
Research papers and whitepapers transforming the technological landscape
Engineering & Technical deep dive into the internals of software products.
Real-world case studies (For example, how does Stripe handle payment processing at scale)
Interesting engineering problems and solutions that spark my curiosity and will immensely benefit you.
