Target market compliant guidance

Great points from all here.

What we noticed is that lots investing content is either super-dry, impenetrable analyst reports or slightly irresponsible get-rich-quick ā€œjournalismā€.

Our view is that investing isnā€™t rocket science, nor is it easy - itā€™s a life skill to be learned. Community definitely plays a role here (like the idea of community submissions @Vlad) but we also want a strong voice coming direct from Freetrade.

The challenges are:

  1. Providing meaningful guidance without stepping into financial advice
  2. Being simple and jargon-free while covering the outrageous complications and exceptions common to finance world

Re technical structure of the blog, we have some cool plans for switching up the blog onto a new platform (watch this space).

Weā€™ll make a decision on how to segment our future and existing stuff then, which is also helpfully as our audience extends more and more into first time investors.

Right now we didnā€™t want to segment our stuff too much as thereā€™s a lot there thatā€™s relevant to even practiced investors (you can be a veteran and believe some wrong supposed common sense).
