Hi there BHWers, I hope you´re all doing well today!

I recently reached the 2,000th post milestone inside this amazing community and, even tho I don´t feel as excited as for the https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/1-000th-post-how-to-launch-a-wordpress-website-for-free-newbie-friendly-guide.1164358/ thread (Given for some recent issues here) I am still proud of being part of the fast-growing family that has had a tremendous impact of my IM development.

For this 2,000th post-celebration, I decide it to put together a curated list of threads I have bookmarked on my browser.

These threads cover many different aspects of digital marketing I believe they´re critical and highly important.

Some of those resources are from BHW while, others, are from external sites.

Perhaps, some of you will disagree with me and/or have your own set of bookmarked thread but, you know, THIS IS MY THREAD!!

This curated list is targeted to newbies anyway which I know will find these resources valuable.
