I implemented some of @KSlazinski’s advice & my impressions are up 55% ❤️
#ASO #buildinpublic

Conversion & IAPs are up too, but it‘s too early too call that with confidence. (smaller numbers, higher volatility) 🤓

Progress Report
I'm building 3 projects this year (next to a busy life).
Here is my progress so far #buildinpublic AMA

- Stenos : Live & Revenue
- Cinemoid : In beta
- Project III : Validating

@pagebakers @NafetsWirth @jfversluis @IronBrands16 @AdriaanvRossum @JasperSchoormns @BaukeJanssens @marinusklasen are 100% #buildinpublic (just like yours truly)

ℹ️ App marketing data update

After a marketing push, there is a clear after effect:

- Weekly downloads are 2x
- Sales are >10x

(Based on two 3 week periods)

#buildinpublic

#buildinpublic share your wisdom

Im running a marketing campaign on cimemoid.io over AdWords. Validate before you elaborate 🤓

Conversion from click to signing up to the mail list is like 1% is that reasonable?

@matteo_spada @SebastianRoehl Just for the #buildinpublic crowd, don't tell anyone else 🤭:

Stenos.io:
- Search Ads: <1 euro per install (Northern Europe minus VK)
- Ad Words: 55 cents per click (UK only)

Cinemoid.io: A little over a euro per click (NL + Flanders)

Getting impression turns out to be super simple (Ad Word/Search Ads), getting that to convert: harder than I thought. 😅

But it is a really great way to improve your product. #buildinpublic

Hey #indiedev / #buildinpublic what is the smartest way to collect testimonials?

The press release of last week didn’t gain a whole lot of traction. This week I’m gonna work on link sharing.

A few paid blog networks reacted, I have no budget for it & I’m not sure that it’ll work for me. Any experience on this?

@onurgenes 🙏 shared experience rocks!

❤️ #buildinpublic

It hard to be patient.

Stenos.io has been growing >50% month over month (4 months in) 🎉🚀

I think that is pretty good. But it now has been 7 days since the last sale, and that feels 😓😟

Got to keep an eye at the bigger picture.
#buildinpublic

Tomorrow is stenos.io's 90th day. 🥳
(of which only the last 3 days world wide availability)

She generated:
- 30.000 impressions
- 350 downloads
- 54 purchases
- loads of fun

Happy Easter!

Ehi, היי 👋

Just released the stenos.io version that supports Hebrew & Italian🤞

#buildinpublic

Good morning! Hopefully I can help 1,2 iPhone developers today. #indiedev

I had a hard time getting screen recordings down to the App Store size: github.com/sbalen/AppStor…

Here is the (rough) script I used to edit them. Maybe you can use it.

Don't forget to #buildinpublic

Customer support calls can really ignite small pang of fear.

But they are almost always wholesome afterwards.

Customer feedback is your startup most valuable resource.

#buildinpublic

This week I have been investing in some content on and quality links to stenos.io. Feels 😊

Search traffic hasn’t exactly exploded yet. But what I gather from the #startup #buildinpublic scene it isn’t supposed to yet. (More like a gradual thing)

Amazing how good small successes feel at your indie project.

Yesterday the first international sales rolled in, and my day is like 20% better.

I can recommend a side project to everyone.

#buildinpublic

All my traffic is direct or social (mostly social).

Getting traffic is work! Today has been a long day of creating content.

When is that sweet search traffic coming huh?

#buildinpublic

😬😳 I get another critical error over the mail

It is so good to get these 🙏

Always a little hard to start working on them (because I rather run away). But there is no other way to get your app really good.
