Hi Chase and the rest of the team,

How come there is no "Related Articles" section on the article pages in the main site? I think it would be great to see a list of links to other articles on similar topics at the bottom or the side of the page, that you could click on when you're done reading an article.

Just my two cents :)

Similar to that question, I was wondering if they had considered tagging articles. Many times when they write an article and they mention something like "fundamentals" it will be followed by a list of articles that deal with fundamentals. Instead, maybe it would be easier for people to find articles based on tags.

but I imagine going back through all the old articles and adding tags would be pretty hard, and it would also probably take a long time... idk just something to consider.

@ShuaiGe they do have something like that: categories. Take a look at girlschase.com/categories. There's even a fundamentals category. Hope that helps!

Anyway I know it might take some time to set up, but I think something along the lines of "Related Articles", "People who read this also read" or even just "Articles in this category" at the bottom of the page would add a lot of value to the site. There's a lot of articles on this site, I'm guessing probably a few hundred or around a thousand, and there are probably a lot of great articles that go unread just because they're hidden under the surface of 10 or so new articles (iceberg analogy). Adding something like this could bring more of these good articles to the surface, and lead to more people subscribing because they see more great articles.

Michael-

Have you seen the "Related Articles" box, just below the social share bar and just above the comments section on each article?:
