About Blog and Newsletter

Since 2019, Fatbobman's Blog has been a trusted resource for iOS and Swift developers seeking in-depth technical content. In 2024, I launched Fatbobman's Swift Weekly, a curated newsletter that brings expert insights, practical tutorials, and deep dives into the Swift ecosystem directly to developers' inboxes every week.

What sets us apart? Quality over quantity. Our content averages 4-5 minutes of engagement time, with technical deep-dives reaching 7-8 minutes. This commitment to depth shows in our metrics: a 53% open rate (more than double the industry average) and a 99% developer audience.

Whether you're building development tools, recruiting talent, or launching products for iOS developers, Fatbobman's Swift Weekly offers a direct line to a highly engaged, technically sophisticated audience.

If you appreciate my work and want to promote your product to the Swift and iOS developer community, sponsoring my blog & newsletter could be an excellent opportunity for you. Here are some reasons why:
