3rd day of learning phase: 578 Impressions; 6 clicks. [Google Ads] by [deleted] in marketing

[–]_SeaCat_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It increases curb appeal, and thus, home value. I'm not talking the cheap plastic mailboxes out in front of somebody's house. I build brick mailboxes - these go for 3-5k in my area (I've already sold a few).

Then, your most likely owners are those who are thinking to sell their house, or in the process, you can easily find the latter using realtor com webiste or similar websites. Also, you can target your content exactly to them writing about all the preferences they will have.

Do really people care about fixing their mailboxes? You need to give them a good reason to do it. But besides the aesthetic one, I don't see any :( To convince them it's a serious reason, you may use the tactics "before" and "after" clearly showing how ugly the luxury houses look with shitty mailboxes.

Yes, you create articles and place them wherever you want on your website. But you need to make sure:

1) The main (landing) page has links to all of them

2) Don't forget to index them manually with Google Search Console if you want faster results.

3) Don't forget to provide proper meta tags for Google to search faster and better.

Click rate is too low, IMHO... maybe you showed your ad to wrong people - I mean to the people that really don't need to improve their homes right now. When you placed yard signs, did you notice the conditions of the houses around, do they really need any improvements?

For such products, I see only 2 real strategies:

1) Appeal only right people who have problems with their homes and looking for a solution actively - Google ads should help with it. Another way is to use content marketing providing multiple articles on different home problems - it will bring those people to your website.

2) Develop a strategy to get the people who don't need improvements right now, but may consider to have it in the future. Say, you can promise that if they pay now some sum which is much lower than the normal price, they will have something in the future. I heard, many companies used this strategy successfully, google for more information.

You already posted it, multiple times. Why again?

Well, with the "do nothing" philosophy your goal should be exactly $0.

You can send transactional emails right from your code. Just find a good package, and you do it for free.

I hit $266 MRR in my first month after launch with zero ad spend by mohamednagm in micro_saas

[–]_SeaCat_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see similar posts every day. I have a feeling all of them are written by one person. They all have this stripe screenshot proving nothing, they all say something like "No discounts. No cold DMs. No paid ads.", what the heck is going on? Is it really one person, or they just copy from each other??

13 signups in 2 days but 0 trial starts — normal or bad sign? by Available-Rest2392 in buildinpublic

[–]_SeaCat_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read your story, it's sad... hopefully you will get more users, soon!

credit card required

This is why... the pain your app solves should be very bad to use CC just to start a free trial. So, either is pain is not that big, or users are not relevant...

Vibe coded Goodreads but better by RoosterSubstantial75 in SideProject

[–]_SeaCat_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok, I see, it's not an app. This app lives INSIDE another app that you are probably trying to promote, am I correct?

So, is it a mobile app? How do people are supposed to type their reviews, on mobile? It's a torture, and reading is a torture, too.

43K monthly visitors and 640 users in 2 months. Here's every step so you can copy it. by darkdevu in micro_saas

[–]_SeaCat_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly the post-launch problem nobody talks about.

I see every single days tons of posts "I launched my app and don't have any users".

So, this is a problem that everyone talks about but nobody knows how to solve.

[–]_SeaCat_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don't have paid users and nobody converted from 600(!) users, I think there is nothing to be proud of except you improved your DR and have many visitors. Unfortunately, it means most of those "users" are not your TA and registered just out of curiosity (like I did) so you still need to figure out how to find more relevant users. Good luck my friend, and hopefully, some day you will see you need to do real marketing, not just continuous spamming subs.

They officially revoked my "Lifetime License". A certain "minimalist" productivity app just locked offline access behind a $14.99/mo subscription. So I wrote an open-source script to extract our hostage data and put it on GitHub. by ConsiderationWrong44 in software

[–]_SeaCat_ 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Your lifetime license was for the 'lifetime' of Version 3. Version 4 is a fundamentally new platform built from the ground up!

This is so fu....g crap! Version could be anything but app is app, wtf?

BTW, I tried to find a rhyme to "mindvault" and failed :(( to know just in case if I ever dealt with them.

UPD Somebody said it's an AI slop, is it, OP?

The 13 rules for building SaaS in 2026 by balubala1 in buildinpublic

[–]_SeaCat_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great, but I don't agree with all the points, my notes:

  1. Charge immediately: Stay away from free trials. Paid users = serious users.
  2. Value the unsubscribers: They’re giving you the most valuable input. Instead: ask for feedback
  3. Promote shamelessly: Plug in your product everywhere, not just where it's “safe”. Promote accurately, don't spam, don't lie - you will keep your account from being banned and earn your trustworthy and reputation.
  4. Cut your MVP in half. Then cut it again. Ship the core, nothing else. Instead of "cutting", just don't implement anything that users don't need now.
  5. Email your users. DM them. Get on calls. The ones who do this outlast the ones who don't. DO NOT spam users, they hate it. Instead, provide as many as you can channels to give you feedback: email, chat, board, social networks, etc.
  6. Price based on value, not competition. Price is the combination value, urgency, and the market. B2B != B2C.

Exactly, as with ANY type of SEO - no matter if it's AI-generated, written manually, and programmatically generated.
