Day 4 of a pay-to-rank board. leftover bid gets spent as it delivers. #1 is $9

I launched Topple on 21 aug. i was inspired by outbid . leftover payment is a balance, not a purchase. it gets spent as it delivers, like an ad budget. getting clicked moves you up. #1 comes back into reach instead of pricing itself out.

last 24h: 460 visitors, 56 clicks out. eight payments so far, $38 through the board. #1 is $9 this morning. any other spot starts at $1. 12% of visitors clicked a listing. small board, early numbers, all public on /stats.

also on product hunt today.

thanks to anyone who tries it or supports the launch. curious what you'd change on day 4.

    The early numbers are the interesting part here: 460 visitors, 56 outbound clicks, and 8 payments already show that people will actually pay to compete for visibility. The “bid as balance, spent as it delivers” model also gives the ranking mechanism a clearer incentive than a simple pay-to-rank board.
