1500 Users: Reflecting on the past 12 months
A lot has happened in the past 12 months. ZeroToArchitect went from a newly published website with zero users to over 1500 users today. I want to thank you all for being here.
Every time I see someone mentioning ZeroToArchitect in a post about how they passed their Azure certification, I smile ear to ear, and I'm thankful to be able to help so many people.
Personally, I have learned a lot in these past 12 months about what helps users learn better and pass their certifications with confidence. I have dedicated a lot of time on polishing the platform, building new features, writing more exam prep questions, and covering more certifications.
What I have seen is that people tend to pass their exams more when they understand the material on a deeper level rather than just practicing exam questions.
For this reason, I'm focusing the next 12 months on having deep content for a smaller set of certifications rather than trying to cover them all.
This will be reflected by publishing more lessons the existing certifications, introducing hands on labs, and more focused practice exercises.
Alright, enough rambling, thank you all for being here, and may we have a wonderful year ahead!
As usual, happy learning!
