Great post.
Have you ever had much trouble posting to Reddit? Some of the subs seem sensitive to the type of content posted. Although this post seems quite useful to the community.
Thank you!
I tried to post to /r/startups before, but my post was shutdown in 15 minutes.
There wasn't any self-promotion back then but the post was a question to community with some details ("what's the best offer for tech cofounder?")
With this new post I was cautious and haven't added any links. I mention a lot of tools there and it'd make sense to link them, but I was afraid that they think it's self-promotion.
With this new post I had no issues!
But yet to figure out how to actually promote there :)
Great post. Very detailed. Keep continuing.
I appreciate it a lot!
Not all my posts went that great lol but such wins and comments make worth it.
Thank you!

My post is top #1 of the month at r/startups!
Growth went down significantly after 2 days. As mentioned in the comments, it seems to be common for reddit.

That's correct, this is why on Reddit you either make it very quickly by people engaging or it just dies. In all cases traffic dries in few days
That's helpful to know, thanks!
And you right, it seems that growth mostly stop now.
But I've got to #1 top posts this week at this subreddit, so it's more than enough for me :)
Hey Igor, Great post on building the right MVP.
Thank you!
We often share these tips with founders on the calls, but I was surprised that it worked so great for reddit (I'm new there)
Oh cool! Nice to hear.
Have you written any articles on SaaS products and SaaS marketing?
Not really – as I came from tech I struggle with marketing myself and just sharing the tips and wins along the way :)
Hey igor, appreciate your efforts. Keep continuing!
