Abralytics
GDPR friendly Google Analytics Alternative
An extremely humble milestone, but one that I'm proud of. It's taken a year to get to 10 paying users on abralytics.com.
Most of those were acquired through Pitchground.com - I chose to go there with a yearly deal as their revenue split was much more founder friendly than AppSumo, and AppSumo only had LTD's at the time which doesn't suit our product.
(while writing this I decided to check and it turns out AppSumo now have yearly deals so I've just submitted the offer to AppSumo also!)
I've been investing in good quality SEO content for nearly 9 months now and we're seeing very good gains in traffic from Google, still a long way to go before there's any substantial ROI from this but it's all good progress.
Onwards and upwards.
Sometimes you just have to close your eyes and click release. I was definitely not ready and neither was the app, but I knew I would procrastinate if I didn't release.
All of the niggles that aren't ready don't really matter when you realise no one will sign up for months anyway :)

Awesome work, Tomas! Keep going!
Wow, congratulations Tomas on reaching your first major milestone through all the hard work. Your website is clear and approachable and makes the service clear, thanks for the inspiration!
Thanks @DFRNT!
Congrats! Onward and upward!
Thanks Carmen :)
Congratulations! That's awesome! I know how hard it is to get customers and keep them. :)
Ah the keeping them - that's the next challenge :)
FYI - when I click the toggle in your pricing page on the white button itself, it doesn't toggle.
Only when I click the blue space next to the toggle will the button click work.
Yes this very much annoys me too!! Just a webflow site so it's a bit of a pain to work with.
Congrats!
Thanks @stoicfungi
Wow, congrats! Well done :D
Thanks @dqn
Congrats Tomas - fantastic!
Thanks Krystie!
Congratulations! Previous experience has shown me it's harder to go from 1 to 10 than it is from 10 to 100, and then 100 to 1000. :-)
So here's to your milestone! I wish you a lot of success on the 10-to-100 journey.
Awesome @Nuro I hope you're right! :)
Good job well done!
Thanks @takuman appreciate it!

Thanks Brian, really appreciate the feedback, this is something I thought was a weak point so great to hear you think it's good!
I agree with @bdicroce, the site is really appealing and trust-inducing. Pro work! 👍
Thank you!

Thanks Sneha, it's been a long slow process to get here! :)
Well done!!!
Thanks Nicolas! :)
