Karan from Boringlaunch

I failed launching on Product Hunt twice 😢 So I found a way to get featured on the Product Hunt without even launching a product. Here’s how I did it 🧵

@furst_fly @join_ef @localhosthq @dsh_india @lossfunk @Basethesislabs @southpkcommons do u know any good one in north blr?

Here are some of the best places to meet talented startup obsessed people in Bangalore 1) @join_ef HSR Layout 2) @localhosthq Koramangala 3) @dsh_india Koramangala 4) @lossfunk Indiranagar (focused on AI research) 5) @Basethesislabs Indiranagar 6) @southpkcommons HSR layout 7) @residencyBLR Koramangala Did I miss out on any place? Would love to come visit. PS: the list is not ordered by any metric (other than what name came into my mind first lol)

@yannick_ferire @samuelpigny @T_Zahil @peerpush_net @chrissyinspace @joulsounet bcz at this stage, these platforms won't add any value for their product

@gamifyKaran @samuelpigny @T_Zahil @peerpush_net @chrissyinspace @joulsounet Why not?

Here is the list of where I launched to improve my DR: Twelve(dot)tools – DR 80 @samuelpigny Uneed(dot)best – DR 73 @T_Zahil Peerpusht(dot)net – DR 72 @peerpush_net Tinylaunch(dot)com – DR 71 @chrissyinspace neeed(dot)directory – DR 71 @joulsounet TrustMRR(dot)com – DR 63 @marclou Foundrlist(dot)com – DR 62 @foundrceo Microlaunch(dot)net – DR 58 @SaidAitmbarek Trylaunch(dot)ai – DR 47 @alexmacgregor__ RankInPublic(dot)xyz – DR 46 @AntonioEscudero ConfettiSaaS(dot)com – DR 30 @ConfettiSaaSCom Launch(dot)cab – DR 30 @ffugenw Indietools(dot)app – DR 23 @AlxTurovski SaaSCity(dot)io – DR 15 @saascity_io Endors(dot)me – DR 13 @rezoundous Stackovery(dot)com – DR 1.7 @EmrikLecomte I keep ProductHunt (DR 91) for when my project will be 100% ready Also follow @jakobjelling for everyday backlinks advice! What is missing? Bookmark it to keep the list for your own launch 🚀

@yannick_ferire @samuelpigny @T_Zahil @peerpush_net @chrissyinspace @joulsounet Got it but I don't think it's good to share this with new founders as well.

@gamifyKaran @samuelpigny @T_Zahil @peerpush_net @chrissyinspace @joulsounet If you are speaking about the below 30 DR ones: I speak about them because I think that it's growing projects with good founders and they need some visibility

@alexanderisorax @unicornplatform @johnrushx happy to see u in my timeline after a long time, all good?

I'm the luckiest indie maker in the world. I've sold @unicornplatform to @johnrushx in 2022. DAYS before the beginning of the AI era that is soon to turn SaaS into a commodity. If I were you I'd stop building and start asking oneself serious questions.

@ChanningAllen Now someone is reading about the indie hackers story in a book suggested by a founder on X.

Man. 15 years ago I was selling copy machines in downtown SF. Lots of cold calling. A receptionist chucked a rubber band ball at me. Hated it but I was great at it! Now I get to sell my own AI product. That I built. That I use every day and actually believe in. Life is good.

@dudufolio Haha

@gamifyKaran He couldve just said he doesnt like girls

This guy has 1.2 million karma on Reddit 🤯 Here's how he did it 👇

Will u try something like this?

@marclou @AbdoMobayad @DataFast_ f5bot has this feature of exact keyword match tracking and it works perfectly tbh i dont know how it works

@AbdoMobayad @DataFast_ Mention tracking on Reddit is a bit messy. For instance "ShipFast" returned "shipped fast", not exact keyword. If you know a better I'd love to implement this too

I built a tool that stalks Reddit for you. Every time someone mentions your startup on Reddit, it shows up on your @DataFast_ analytics chart with their avatar, upvotes, and subreddit. You can finally see which Reddit post caused that random traffic spike at 3:12 am. Free for all users on Growth.

@aliszu what a pic 😍

@unfiltered_ajit its pre monsoon, summers will come (hold the door)

Bangalore has skipped the summer season and entered monsoon directly. Good for us!!

@indexsy LLM

REPEAT AFTER ME Recommended by ChatGPT is 69x easier than Google (srs) In my testing: 2 weeks to get indexed. 1 more week to start ranking Hate the tactics all you want Do they work? Does it make money? This is GEOs golden era. You'll need to explain to your kids that you were sidelined because you didn't like some Asian guy on X who dryscoops creatine Comment "LLM" + like this post and I'll DM you the method (must be following).

@iamjasonlevin i guessed it must be u after reading the post (saw the username afterwards) Marketing GOAT 🐐

I'm renting out a movie theater in NYC to watch IG Reels. The date? April Fools. But this is 100% real. Come out and enjoy IG Reels on the big screen where they belong

@AdityaShips how do u learn to code?

Exactly 12 months ago i came across this Youtube video of Marc Lou where he shared how he made $237k by building apps in public It completely changed the way I think. That’s when I decided to learn how to code and start building my own apps. Now I’m really happy to say that all my apps have earned a total of $1017 in revenue > Appthetics - $684 > Text In Between - $309 > SuperPictureAI - $33 What a journey 🫶

@nicholasychua i barely see x articles on my feed

if you are interested in everything i've learned over the past 3 months about x articles, formats, and content strategy. stay tuned ;)

Business Idea:

@the2ndfloorguy there should be a tool that will call ur parents everyday at a particular time. And u can't cancel the call it will do everyday (u can reschedule on the same day but u will call them everyday).

i know it sounds a little depressing, but hear me out. i was having this convo with my friend yesterday and it got me thinking. so i sat down and actually did the math on how much time i have left with my parents like properly. i'm 27 in blr, mom and dad are both ~50-52 in my hometown average life expectancy in india is around 70-74 yrs. so they roughly have 24 yrs ahead. i go home twice a year. 10 days each time. that's 20 days a year. real quality time stuff like meals together, evening chats - maybe 6 hours a day total 20 × 6 = 120h a year daily calls tbh around like 10 min 365 × 0.17 = 62h a year from calls total: 120 + 62 = 182 hours a year 24 years × 182 hours = 4,368 hours. total. that's everything. that's roughly like 182 days. less than 6 months of actual time. sorry, i'm not sharing this to make anyone sad. things probably I'll try to fix from my side - one extra trip home. calls that go 20 minutes instead of 10. I think we spend so much energy optimizing everything else in our lives. maybe this deserves a little of that energy too. people might say this is depressing. you can make anything depressing if you calculate it this way. i just think some numbers are worth sitting with for a minute this is just one perspective, and every family situation is different. but this was enough to make me pick up the phone more often. my math might be a completely off or may be stupid tbh. but it was enough to shake me. hope it does the same for you

@hridoyreh Reddit: Everyone is either an expert or a beginner. Nothing in between.

Instagram: Ordinary people pretend to be millionaires. X: Millionaires pretend to be ordinary people. LinkedIn: Everyone is a CEO.

@mddanishyusuf currently it has close to 0 traffic and not good/enough backlinks as well, next time before paying u can check them on semrush for free (semrush > seo > backlinks)

I just listed SuperDev Pro on marketingdb.live (DR 34). Cost me only $11 — instant publish + a solid backlink. Absolute steal.
