It's done finally ๐Ÿ•บ๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ•บ๐Ÿผ

New home page design for LaunchPedia website ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Instead of adding tabs and directories, we added the popular resources from those directories

Now the home page is a lot cleaner and loads faster ๐Ÿ”ฅ

What do you think?

#buildinpublic
We've received 70+ new tool submissions onย LaunchPediaย ๐Ÿ˜

This is shocking to us, we haven't expected this number at all ๐Ÿ˜…

Maybe it's time we should focus more on the submission page and set up a flow for it ๐Ÿค”

#buildinpublic
And in the end, we wanted to go with the previous colour palette only ๐Ÿซ 

The worst part of all this is the layouts aren't done yet.

Do you also get carried away by other things when you are designing? If so, how do you overcome it?

#buildinpublic
I'm looking for an affordable SEO tool ๐Ÿ‘€

1. Keyword Research
2. Competitor Analysis and
3. Our website Analysis

Any suggestions you have?

New grid design for LaunchPedia tools directory on the Home page ๐Ÿ˜

A lot clean and simple!!

What do you think?

#buildinpublic
We have 3 directories on our website

1. Tools
2. Launch platforms and
3. Product Hunt interviews

Stacking all these directories vertically makes the page lengthy!!

So, we created tabs and now adding grids to them ๐Ÿ‘‡

What do you think?

#buildinpublic
Finding the tool on LaunchPedia has become more easy now ๐Ÿš€

We added a search bar to the tools page ๐ŸŽ‰

Check it out and let me know your thoughts (link in comments)

Suggestions Needed ๐Ÿ™

As our resources list is growing, we are looking to redesign our home page that will fit all types of resources.

Do you know good resource directory websites? (Ex: Makerpad type of websites)

Let me know in the comments ๐Ÿ‘‡

#buildinpublic
We are hosting TBBL interviews on the LaunchPedia website ๐Ÿ—๏ธ

Reasons:
1. Substack analytics is not accurate
2. As these are full-length articles, Our website's session time will increase &
3. Full control over content & design

Any thoughts?

Exactly a month back, I & @Nithin_Jawahar thought of quitting LaunchPedia as things weren't going well.

But we tried one last time

Today @getlaunchlist paid for an ad spot on our site & we made our first $1๐Ÿ’ฐ๐Ÿฅณ

So Don't give up, Keep trying, & you will make it!

Who said WordPress websites loads slow ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Just checked LaunchPedia's website speed on GTMetrix

It is green everywhere๐Ÿ˜!! 99% performance ๐Ÿ•บ

Note: WordPress is fast if you optimize it well. Poor plugins and themes only will make your Wordpress website load slow
