1/ You appear in more "people using this tool have also downloaded" sections getting more traffic to your best practices.
2/ Users start to recognise your style and brand name
3/ You can channel your existing users to other best practices you have published. Remember, it takes more time to acquire a new user rather than work with existing ones! :)
4/ Your Eloquens Author Channel looks much more complete and trustworthy for prospective users (especially if you are looking to sell on Eloquens)
