AI To Grow

Too many directory websites were published before and after I build AI To Grow. A lot of AI tools are being developed and the directories are likewise increasing every day.

This makes my job more difficult. There's a lot of competition.

My product is different from ordinary directories. Basically, I am not listing all products. I try each tool and add the most useful ones for solofounders, but I realize that it is not enough.

So I started working on AI recipes to further differentiate the product.

For example, how do you build a brand identity from start to finish with only AI tools?
Can you earn free traffic with AI tools?
Can you create a landing page with AI tools?

I will answer many questions like these and offer different solutions for solofounders.

The traffic of the website is quite low at the moment. There is no revenue model. Just making a directory is not enough. But I hope that in this way, I can both create something more useful with recipes and find an income model.

I added more tools and create a few new pages, launch the product on ProductHunt so that it could be evaluated by a wider audience. AI To Grow was the 5th product of the day. For a simple website, I think it's a pretty successful result. Moreover, the website consisted of only a few pages.

Here are 10 things I did before the launch:

-I have tested the website from different devices, be sure there is no problem on design or technique.
-I checked all the links on the AI to Grow and made sure they linked to the right tools.
-I have checked the contact form on the site many times.
-I checked the speed of the site.
-I reviewed the ProductHunt pages of similar products and analyzed the successful ones.
-I asked my friends to test the website and report any errors they found.
-I've made sure that Analytics is working.
-I did research to find the correct date to launch.
-I found and tested a Cold DM tool to announce the product with cold DMs on Twitter. I scheduled DMs to be sent from Twitter for the launch day.
-I close my calendar for the day and spent the whole day answering comments and questions.

After we build the homepage and added plugins, tools (such as Analytics, Yoast SEO etc), I tweeted website.

The comments showed that I was finding a right problem. Users said they liked this and discovered new tools.

After the reactions, I decided to make the website more detailed and add new pages.

I wanted to effectively show the list and search how to build.

My first option was Notion, but there are so many lists made using it that most of them appear to be forgotten after a while. (I'm not sure, just a personal observation.)

That's why I chose to create a long-term website. My husband and I created a WordPress website.

First, we created a homepage and added the top tools from the list.

This website was built with the Salient theme and a simple template designed by my husband and me. We have no problems adding a new tool or a new page because of this template.

AI has advanced significantly, with hundreds of new AI tools being released every day. But I wasn't sure which one would work best for me or which one I should utilize. This was a significant issue.

I discovered libraries that list AI tools, but they only list all AI tools. My goal was to learn about the most useful tools for a solofounder. It was a huge waste of time to try out all of the tools.

So I decide to solve this problem first for myself, then for all solopreneurs, and began compiling a list of the most beneficial tools.
