> The disadvantage to this strategy is that it’s a one-shot thing. You can’t keep spamming these forums with the same stale content because it’s both ineffective and pretty offensive. To move forward, we’ll need another content strategy.<p>Check out your submission history, lol.<p>To be honest, I don't like that kind of posts. There is no value in them at all. It's the type the of posts where people claim they've built a startup in a day/week. Seriously, it's harming more than helping. What you have achieved is some market validation, but still, you don't know if anyone is gonna pay. Your "users" don't actively use your service, they just subscripted to your newsletter, probably that would be more accurate, but it wouldn't bring so many clicks to your blog, wouldn't it?
Interesting product, but possibly more telling about how much developer inventory in being brought into the market, often with significant debt attached, that is struggling to find work.<p>I'm a bit nervous due to remembering friends that went from developer jobs to working at a grocery store during the dotcom crash. Hopefully the industry will continue to grow, because especially boot camp degrees are not very transferrable to other professions.
I have five websites with hundreds to thousands of users. The first hundred to every website are the poor souls who have to experience the broken interfaces, find the bugs, and eventually leave.<p>But they are also the most valuable because that lets you scale. Learn why each customer left and fix it. In a few hundred customers you’ll have the next thousand or tens of thousands.
This reads like a 13 year old who read some buzzwords regarding "lean startups", made an HTML input box, spammed some social media sites, then patted themselves on the back and wrote this article.
