If you are going to try and give something away for free, you have to follow through. Bait and switch freemiums will fail if for no other reason than the bloggers wont link to you anymore. In this episode, I call out Ragan Communications (as one of many companies who do this) insofar that they provide their content for free for a limited time and then gate it only for premium subscribers. My point is that bloggers will stop linking to publishers who do this....as the link is a dead end.
