Going viral, take #2: Trump vs Biden iOS 14 icons

Two weeks ago we posted a free iOS 14 home screen icon set to see if we can drive some traffic to our website flat-icons.com.

At first, that didn't work: https://www.indiehackers.com/post/no-one-is-downloading-our-free-ios-14-icons-what-are-we-doing-wrong-379f3b34d9

...but afterwards it got some traction; the icon set was featured on both the Dribbble and the Iconfinder blog and we're seeing a nice number of downloads every day.

Anyways, we thought it's time for round 2 and create a set iOS 14 home screen icons for Biden and Trump: https://flat-icons.com/downloads/free-ios14-icon-set-trump-vs-biden/.

Our game plan:

  • Share with iPhone blogs that shared this kind of content before
  • Send to some political websites
  • Post to all social channels
  • Post on Reddit

If anyone has some other good ideas, thanks in advance for sharing!

      Thank you, let's hope so!

      So far, we haven't got any traction. Today we'll do some more stuff.
