Bugs be gone: How Matt built a software testing tool and drove 38,000 monthly visitors to his website that converts!

My co-founder and I from founderoo.co caught up with Matt Valley to learn about his story founding testfully.io. Testfully is a software platform that helps other software teams find bugs early on so they can release their products faster and with more confidence.

But what I found even more interesting was Matt's backstory. He's originally from Tehran and grew up in a working-class family. Despite his dad wanting him to become an architect, he followed his passion for programming and even ran his own dev shop business in Tehran before moving to Australia in 2013 because of sanctions.

Fast forward to 2020, he quit his job and started working on Testfully during the pandemic lockdown. It's a really cool read and I think you guys would enjoy it. Check it out!

Here are my key takeaways from Matt’s story:
👉 Matt identified a problem that he had first-hand experience in.
👉 he ensured there was demand for a solution before he developed the solution.
👉 he was disciplined. He would rise up at 5 am each morning and work on his business before his day job started when he juggled the two in the early days.
👉 he has mastered SEO as his main acquisition channel. He drives 38K+ unique visitors a month via Google search.
