Tips for building in public for the 1st time
Hi everyone,
I'm going to be building in public for the first time.
What tips do you have for someone who is going to be doing it for the first time?
What platforms are the best (LinkedIn, Twitter, PH, etc.) for building in public?
What hashtags and all should I be using?
Thanks a lot!
Don’t do it on Twitter unless you are targeting other IndieHackers with your product. Do it wherever your customers hang out, if that’s possible.
I guess Twitter will work for me since IndieHackers build landing pages and need a lot of forms.
I'm building (https://deltaforms.vercel.app) by the way, does that look like something you will use with Google Forms or HTML forms on your landing page?
Check out #buildinpublic on Twitter as a first step into this. Follow a few people, and then simply start posting. Part of #buildinpublic is figuring stuff out on the way.
Sounds great! Thanks a lot. What are some other good places apart from Twitter to build in public?
My best bet would be of course IH, otherwise your personal blog.
