Choices, Choices, Choices

“Which path is right for you? It depends on your objective. Educational

content is meant to be shared and an All Rights Reserved license is going to

reduce your reach. If you need to retain full control over your content in the

hopes of getting paid, that’s OK. But don’t pin this to false hope. You’re not

going to get paid unless you’ve built up sufficient authority. The more you

restrict your content, the more you reduce your chances of building authority.”
