    Great list from first glance! will have to do a deep dive later 🔎

    My tool Sourcee (https://www.sourcee.app) would be a great fit for the SEO tools section alongside HARO. It collates, filters and instantly notifies users of new journo requests that go live on Twitter.

      Looks great @Smiffy - I will definitely sign up and check out how it works. :)

    This is so helpful, thanks!

    We just launched our new free extension that compares hotel prices live (https://www.ratepunk.com/), and we're working on marketing now! It will definitely be my go-to list!

    Hey Indie Hackers community 🖐❤️

    I’m excited to launch the SaaS Marketing Stack.

    I hope makers and founders find this valuable. 😊

    I’ve created this resource which lists over 500+ tools for Growth Marketers & SaaS Founders across 39 different channel categories.

    Many of these have helped me over the years when it comes to growth and marketing for startups I advise/consult with, as well as heading up growth for startups. Many are also useful for side projects I work on too.

    Why did I create this?

    1. It was fun to create. 😊
    2. I get asked these questions often as a growth marketer;

    👉 Which platforms have the best features?
    👉 Which tools are the cheapest for early-stage startups?
    👉 Which tools are feature-rich for fast scaling startups?
    👉 Which tools provide the best value for the investment?

    These are some of the core questions I get asked. Usually, there’s more to think about.

    The list of criteria and thought considerations depends on your business and your current growth strategy.

    There are lots of potential tools that you can integrate into the growth strategy you may have not considered before.

    So, I’ve spent hours and hours creating this SaaS Stack to help founders, marketers and makers like you. 😊

    I’ve received some awesome feedback with many people loving it so far, so I’m excited to see what you think. 😊

    I’ve included lots of tool categories with more being added soon. Explore tools across;

    I’m sure you have some good resources or checklists there, but honestly I can’t read it.

      1. 1

        Many colors are not WCAG2.0 web accessible, and are extremely hard on the eyes for reading. The font is not meant for long-form reading either.

        I know you are probably aiming for something like https://pwaresources.dev/ or https://hype4.academy/articles/design/neubrutalism-is-taking-over-web, but your site is impossible to read, no matter how hard I squint.

        1. 1

          Ah k, thanks for the feedback I do appreciate it. @fromtheexchange. I've actually never seen these websites before ever. They look cool for sure.

  9. 1

    Just to be sure, there are no links to the SaaS Marketing Tools ? (Android with chrome) I only see logos.

    1. 1

      Hey, what do you mean? The links should definitely work.

      1. 1

        After checking again I realized that I need to click on -check it out- , then a new window opens with the category. I somehow expected to click on the logo of the tool down at the homepage and then see a description of and the link to the tool.

        1. 1

          Ah, interesting. This is good feedback to know. Thanks for coming back to me.

    This surely will help a lot in choosing the right tool. Glad you liked smartwriter.ai 💪

    1. 1

      Of course! Smartwriter is one of my favourite tools. :)
