For those who build, do you focus on organic growth, or paid ad growth or both when launching a new product?

Also, if you don't mind, comment below on why do πŸ‘‡

I've recently started learning about ASO, SEO, etc. & I look at content on the internet way differently now.

When I'm searching for a topic & find a useful article, I'm thinking to myself "This is a great idea to bring in potential customers"

#buildinpublic
Stayed up way too late doing a deep dive into App Store Optimization.

Hopefully I will get 5 hours of sleep.

With the changes I've made, I think it's well with it.

Follow if you want to see the before and after stats.

I thought I got popular enough to hack 😭, but apparently Twitter is having issues with the web browser currently.

If you are getting constantly logged out, it's not just you.

Sometimes, asking a successful person for advise will only give you a small amount of info.

It's better to watch a successful person work.

What they do, how often they do it, the time of day they do it will provide more insights than their reply to a question.

I now have metrics on every feature @MediaNotesApp provides.

This will help me determine what features to expand, what workflows to improve, etc.

Such a small amount of work will bring a large amount of value and insights to help guide the future of Media Notes.

#buildinpublic
If I knew I could start tracking metrics in less than 10 minutes using @mixpanel I would have done so months ago.

This is way easier than I thought it would be.

Pushing an update this week. More insights for medianotesapp.com will be shared soon. πŸ“ˆ

There's nothing like finishing your own QA testing and making a release at 1am.

Happy Friday.....Saturday.....or whatever 😁.

#buildinpublic
How do you do QA testing before a release? πŸ€”

Mainly interested in those without a dedicated QA. πŸ§ͺ

Sometimes it's hard not to take the optimistic path and use your app/service as it's intended to be use. But we know users have a 🧠of their own lol

#buildinpublic
Is it just me, or did activity within different hashtags dry up over the last 3-4 days.

Specifically, #buildinpublic #indiehackers #uidesign #uiux #dailyui & #bootstrapping

I've never been on "Latest" and consistently see post 10-20 min apart.

Anyone else notice this? πŸ€”
@nikpolale @mixpanel Sadly I don't know many on Twitter 😞.

Has to be more of us in #buildinpublic though?
Once I've made more features free for my push to "freemium", I plan to start working on metrics gathering using @mixpanel. The insights metrics will provide will be invaluable.

I still have to finish my first blog post too. 😩So much to do but it'll get done πŸ’ͺ🏾.

This week, I'll be working on making @MediaNotesApp more "freemium". Giving users more capabilities before even having to sign up for a free trial.

I did this a while back for version 1 and it seemed pretty successful.

#buildinpublic
What are people doing to track analytics in their apps? Button clicks, page/screen loads, time spent, etc.

#buildinpublic #mobileapps #reactnative #iosdev
Does anyone stalk their competitors online?

@MediaNotesApp only has 1 competitor that I've found (might be more out there but... 🧐). I check them top to bottom every 2-3 months.

Is this normal or am I slightly crazy πŸ€ͺ

#buildinpublic
I hope everyone is having a great #Four20.

I stay in Texas so, it's very uneventful for me πŸ˜­πŸ˜–.

#buildinpublic
I've finally started to take Twitter seriously in the last 2 weeks and already seeing good results.

It was way more simple than I was making it previously.

#buildinpublic
If I'm starting a blog to share content related to problems my app solves, should I include ads on the blog?

Seems like every blog post has ads nowadays.

Curious what others do?

#buildinpublic
I'm hopeful that Google will wise up and stop bullying me. #buildinpublic

TIL: Google can retroactively try to pull your app off the store even after they've approved it multiple times.

They don't like my subscription workflow. Mention the transition from 1 screen to another during the app intro might make a user subscribe by accident
