Just bought a domain from HugeDomains on a payment plan for my next project in the AI niche.

I hope this one doesn't turn out to be dust🤪

Which Side of the Force Are You?

1. Seller's side - let the buyer pay the fee
2. Buyer's side - let the seller pay the fee

Acquired Remoteo.com

Now I can build another remote job board 😁

Or should I name it AnotherRemoteJobBoard? 🤔

#domains #buildinpublic

What a drop 😢

I was just starting to think that Google finally recognized me.

It was like taking candy from a baby.

Whatever.

Move on!

Waiting for approval from @FastSpring 🤞

🟢 I haven't found any restrictions regarding site niche in their TOS
🟢 They don't have a list of supported countries like @Stripe
🔴 It was a bit harder to integrate their platform compared to @2Checkout and @Paddle

Nice work @2Checkout 🤬

Indie devs, do you have any recommendations, that work in Ukraine?

You don't need a bunch of expensive tools at the beginning of your side project:

🔸Keyword research: Google Keyword Planner
🔸Analytics, A/B tests: Google Analytics
🔸Planning: Google Sheets
🔸Marketing: #buildinpublic, Social Media, Newsletters, ProductHunt
🔸A sheet of paper

Internal link building is a crucial part of SEO.
So, I'm working on it now.

💡 Tip #1: To grab the user's attention use power words like fast, extra, value, and now to encourage clicks and conversions.
