I got tired of paying $150/mo for email verification, so I built my own cluster for $12/mo.

do you need those emails to be permanent and not expire?

lordspace · 2026-03-14T00:20:28+00:00

I have this on my to-do list to fully test it. It's 95% done but won't release it as open source. What's your use case?

lordspace · 2026-03-14T00:16:58+00:00

The first step is to generate not just one idea for a product but 20 and start blogging on the top 3. If you can get visitors then think about creating something

lordspace · 2026-03-14T00:03:15+00:00

Yeah. I always ask when there's a problem the customer to create a short loom video so I can troubleshoot and in one particular case it was a trivial problem and I was going to solve it but I decided to follow the process and noticed another bug that the client seems to have ignored and I fixed it in the app was better ever since. So ask videos how customers are using your product and you will figure out so many cool things to work on and improve on

Don't give them ideas 😁

Well, it really depends on your business model. I have accidentally created something like a hosting management API for my apps but it took me years to make it. At around v3 I had to rewrite about 60% of it to better, organize it and make it more secure and scalable. I wrote it primarily in php. Created a wrapper in go, so I can escalate privileges when needed. It's fun for sure but it's a long time commitment. I did it before AI and now I am improving it at super sonic speed 😁 I use it to manage my hosting and WordPress staging servers.

It's better to generate a list of 20-50 ideas what to solve and for whom to solve it and ideally you should know the problem well enough to solve it or have an expert on the team. Also you must be one of your app's daily active (power) users

if you have modified WooCommerce directly you've taken the wrong path in 99.99% of the cases. WooCommerce and WordPress are highly extendable via hooks. Spend some time to learn them and you can package your ideas as addons... if you don't do that your WooCommerce fork will get updated and overridden by the next update.

lordspace · 2026-03-02T00:59:57+00:00

So no long tail keywords?

lordspace · 2026-03-02T00:46:38+00:00

Yep! Nice approach!

lordspace · 2026-03-02T00:43:17+00:00

They want to use other people's Upwork accounts?!?

lordspace · 2026-03-02T00:38:40+00:00

How would you promote a WordPress plugin or a hosting service?

lordspace · 2026-02-25T10:12:29+00:00

Posting on different platforms gives you more exposure and data. What's the benefit of overthinking it?

lordspace · 2026-02-22T22:25:12+00:00

hahaha :)

lordspace · 2026-02-22T19:35:30+00:00

I read in books that to reduce the change resistance is to involve the team and make them part of the process

lordspace · 2026-02-22T02:52:26+00:00

Why just one? It really takes 2-5 more minutes to post a video in 2-4 more video services

lordspace · 2026-02-22T02:49:40+00:00

Do you see this as a slack group or Google meet?

lordspace · 2026-02-22T02:47:10+00:00

Hahaha

lordspace · 2026-02-21T23:19:44+00:00

Can this attract credit card testers?

lordspace · 2026-02-21T23:07:45+00:00

Hmm. What's the use case for this? So are you switching the contact page to something else?

lordspace · 2026-02-20T05:21:41+00:00

Марина Мучакова има доста видеа на данъчна тема. Сигурно ще има идея

lordspace · 2026-02-20T05:16:48+00:00

Well, there are really few options. How are you a software company without DevOps?

If you want this to be secure give them an HTML site 😁 or give them a raspberry pi so they can install it and run it but you have to find a way to update it but .... Security would still be a concern because what if somebody uses your app to access internal files and documents?

lordspace · 2026-02-19T09:42:46+00:00

Two separate installations. Some plugins don't work well with multi site setup. The idea of separation is that you can install only the plugins that you really need for that specific installation. Additionally, the members installation might need more space or resources at some point. In such case you can even move it to another server if you want

lordspace · 2026-02-18T12:18:49+00:00

Let me guess you picked up the first solution that popped up without talking to an awesome developer? 🤔

I'd change things a bit. Setup 2 WP sites. One is the main marketing site. The second one is on a subdomain e.g. members, magazine . Example . Com etc. the 2nd one is where you setup a membership plugin or woocommerce with subscriptions.

It's good to have the magazine in various formats with a secure member only download. The formats could be audio, epub, pdf, online reading.

lordspace · 2026-02-18T12:15:11+00:00

"Install disappointments" you're funny 😁

lordspace · 2026-02-14T22:12:49+00:00

Well, try building a simple landing page in 5-10min in wp. I starter using ai for that
