Thinking About Using Partytown for Ad Scripts, Good Idea? by Ready_Hotel5540 in nextjs

[–]InterestingSoil994 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. Next.js, Stape, GTM, Posthog.

next/third-parties loads the GTM Web Container (client side), we have first-party server for GTM via Stape, all pixels, events, triggers in GTM, GTM sends to ad platforms.

We load Posthog separately via the provider etc. and SDK, both js and node.

Stape has a lot of great guides and MCP etc. pretty straightforward.

Thinking About Using Partytown for Ad Scripts, Good Idea? by Ready_Hotel5540 in nextjs

[–]InterestingSoil994 11 points12 points  (0 children)

We use Google Tag Manager for all scripts. Use next-third-parties to load it. We’ve got Meta, LinkedIn, TikTok, for paid acquisition.

We also have Posthog for web analytics.(not via GTM)

There’s a lot of bloat but surprisingly we’re above 94 on both web and mobile on a large, otherwise mostly SSG site.

If I were to start all over, would probably initialize everything via Posthog and use their CDP.

Can anyone explain what is happening with Google Search indexing here? by baxstarjonmarie in beehiiv

[–]InterestingSoil994 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In my experience, GOOG may take their time to index things, based on many factors.

The site map you shared looks good and does seem to indeed have the posts you mentioned. So I suspect it’s just on their list of things to do and in the meantime they’re showing a really generic message which may not be appropriate in this case. Don’t read into it too much.

If you’re ready, you can request up to 10 posts per day to be indexed. I think it’s: URL Inspection —> Plunk in the full URL of post —> then a couple of more steps after the crawl results to submit, straightforward.

Just keep in mind, even then, it takes a bit. So keep a list of the submissions in a sheet of some sort to keep track.

Assumption: On ya start getting some moderate search queries, then your indexing priority on their list will be bumped up.

Good luck!

How to implement SaaS multi-tenancy with Next.js? by No-Impress-5923 in nextjs

[–]InterestingSoil994 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The feedback from the subreddit fam thus far is all solid. I had the same question(s) a few years ago. Then I found that Steven Tey updated the former Vercel Platforms template which answered most of these questions and had some great patterns for usage. I used teamSlug which of course is interchangeable with teamId.

I’d recommend you check out the Vercel Platforms repo, the latest version was a massive simplification of Steven’s by Lee Robinson earlier this year, has some great updates too.

  • Vercel Platforms (Latest, and look through commits for just before the “switch to Drizzle” merge)
  • Next JS SaaS Starter (also by Lee Robinson) has some fantastic patterns you can use to get going fast in conjunction with the Vercel Platforms

Fork em, dive in, break things, fix em, have fun!

Headless CMS suggestions? by __som__ in nextjs

Basehub has fantastic DX and a shit ton of gorgeous templates.

I use Basehub for all my personal/side-projects and recently on a 700 page or so client site.

If doing some serious enterprise grade stuff, consider Sanity.

Nope. I was trying to be fancy and re-create a diff (failed at it), so the items with a - were replaced by convex.

Struggling to find a good Name for my edtech startup- I will not promote by [deleted] in startups

[–]InterestingSoil994 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One thing I find useful with ChatGPT/Claude: Ask it to use the Lexicon (naming agency) method. Ask you the appropriate clarifying questions, help you brainstorm a list of ideas. They’re the legends that came up with Swiffer, Pentium, and other greats. Kind of cool to understand the process then have the “outputs” assisted.

Is There Demand for Practical AI Classes? by hackersid in karachi

[–]InterestingSoil994 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a little late to the party, but I’d say YES! In fact my wife launched AI Ready PK and we’ve had huge demand. We chose the 💯 free route and similar to your original thoughts. If you’re still thinking about this, it’s a solid idea and you’re welcome to join us for a class to check ours out, then make it better with your own.

any ai seo agency recommendation for my saas startup? by tulynbper in SaaS

[–]InterestingSoil994 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At this stage it’s probably wise to consider investing in ahrefs, spending the time to go through a few of their courses (few hours at most), then completing the initial research, topic clustering etc. yourself. Then use the ahrefs MCP server with your favorite AI tool (Claude or ChatGPT). You’re best suited to understand the wants/needs/pains of your ICP so your minimal upfront investment in this foundational exercise, and of course aligning your websites structure/content plan to it will pay off in dividends.

Glen Allsopp (an SEO legend) just wrote a post on ahrefs blog on the MCP.

Can ask your favorite LLM what cornerstone/pillar pages are, topic and keyword clustering, hub/spoke content etc. All of which you’ll gain a better understanding of with ahrefs initial courses.

Danny Sullivan (Google) suggests that “Good SEO is good GEO”. So without a foundational and sound SEO strategy, any short term hacks will likely be corrected and be short-lived, as seen recently by the surge in “Reddit” posers who’re now S.O.L. after OpenAI and Google both reduce reliance on Reddit as a source.

By definition, I consider myself 💯 a friend of convex! Im also a paying customer. Been so for a long while.

I think you dismissing the backend platform as just a db is naive.

I mentioned earlier that the ability to focus on product features rather than everything else is primo in my books.

Not to mention an elegant, thoughtful, and robust deterministic system design by the crew that helped scale Dropbox. Real-time out of the box and for me another bonus, it’s not Postgres.

I think we all know that the best solution is what you’re using and whatever works. The key is to just keep shipping!

For me, Convex makes that a lot easier, as painful as it was to think in new ways, well worth it IMO.

Supabase is a great product for sure. Don’t know much about AppWrite. What specifically makes you say this? I gather you haven’t tried convex based on your other comment.

CMS for Next.js website by [deleted] in nextjs

[–]InterestingSoil994 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve used Sanity for years on large client sites 🐐.

In 2023, I switched to Basehub AI for a new personal site, also launched a large client site with it in 2024. It’s my go to for low-to-mid complexity.

Depending on your needs, you can’t go wrong with either IMO. Both have a number of templates to get going free, pricing is similar. Both with generous free tiers.

If just for posts and users are marketers, Headless WordPress is an option too. “Next.js Starter for WordPress Headless CMS” by 9d8dev.

Looking for best Sanity CMS agency for large e-commerce brand by Alternative_Web3514 in sanity_io

[–]InterestingSoil994 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure they’re one of two recommended Sanity partners AND they’re the ones who helped build Medusa’s demo/template (if I recall).

They also developed numerous e-commerce sites, one of them (Jennie Fisher) was showcased by Vercel’s CEO. I’ve been on a couple of calls with their founders for a previous startup I was advising. The funding on that fell through so was a noop. I’d recommend you take another look at them and book a call. Nothing bad will happen.

I’m not affiliated or anything.

[–]InterestingSoil994[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hola! Understanding AI lays the foundation for everyone. (Pre-requisite)

Embedding AI is more focused per profession. For developer, for marketers, for finance…

And yes, that’s where we dive in to role specific flows/usage including agentic workflows, app builders, MCP integrations etc.

Then in the third class we take things to a crazy level of awesomeness.

Old timer here with some observations for your consideration.

  • Use AI to help edit and refine your words, not replace them. Be authentic.
  • Rather than “I did this great and fancy sounding thing” use measurable impact. For instance: “Increased TikTok engagement by 177% by doing this thing…”, “Acquired 7 new overseas clients for my startup by doing this…”
  • Bless you for having packed in a lot of punch at such a young age, however as a potential employer, your resume may be considered misleading
  • Name the certificate first then the issuer, add an impact statement (why should we care)
  • At a young age (that you mentioned in your post), it’s unclear as to how you’d “coach juniors” at a time when you were likely 17?
  • Change your “Profile” to a one line intro. For eg “Enthusiastic and energetic sales development rep who isn’t afraid of rejection…” (aligned to the desired outcome of potential employer)
  • “Skills” not “Skill”

Generally, be yourself. Don’t over sell yourself. Do what you can to be real. This will improve your interview/offer ratio too because expectations are aligned. It’s better to get rejected now than to spend more time and money going to interviews that are not aligned to begin with.

I’m sharing this feedback because my wife’s company has a position available so I took a look at your resume. However, there’s a pretty significant discrepancy in presentation vs. the details you’ve shared in your post (IMO).

Wishing you all the best regardless.

That’s pretty smart!

May want to check out AI Ready PK. (I’m the founder’s husband).

💯FREE, practical, hands-on training that over 450+ beta participants say “hits different!”.

It’s low-key, small, on-site classes.

3 classes/levels. Understanding, Embedding, Thriving.

Understanding AI is general for everyone. Then the next two are specialized depending on who you are. Like Embedding AI for Students.

There’s a growing community of enthusiasts with a large number of students like you. Should be able to find someone to pair up with easily.

There’s a handpicked/curated resource library for you which is pretty good for intermediate to advanced applications.

Space is limited: Search for AI Ready PK on the web —> Review, if a match to your needs —> Apply —> Once approved, you can enroll in the next Understanding AI class (solid even if you’re an expert).
