InvyMate

My advisor and co-founder (@ChatGPT) convinced me that I need to start small with LinkedIn presence.

So:

• LinkedIn org page is live

• description and About section filled

• first post published

After a short 3-minute debate, the plan is simple: 2 posts per week.

For publishing tools, the requirement was free / freemium. No overhead. I ended up with Buffer.

I’ve never used SMM tools before, but it already covers everything I need:

• single LinkedIn channel

• scheduled posts

• simple workflow

I prepared 7 posts and scheduled them according to the plan.

Post images were another story.
I couldn’t find anything ready to use, so I made them myself.
That also means my first ever experience with GIMP — probably deserves a separate post :)

It’s surprisingly hard not to touch code and instead focus on content, visuals, and distribution. But this is exactly what we are doing here :)

Definitely outside my comfort zone.
Let’s see how it goes.

Starting the new year with something new :)

I spent a bit more than a week following Ahrefs recommendations.

Mostly technical work:

• fixing bugs

• adjusting meta tags

• cleaning up structure

• dealing with things I honestly didn’t fully understand at first

This is my first real dive into SEO, and many patterns felt unfamiliar and unintuitive.

Still, after these changes alone (no new content yet), Google Search Console already shows ~10–15% improvement in impressions.

That was encouraging.

Now I’m shifting focus to the website itself:

• redesigning main pages and blocks

• making the product clearer and more trustworthy

• adding proper “how it works” guides

• explaining the value proposition in a simpler way

My hope is that clearer structure + better explanations will help both users and search engines.

SEO feels less like “growth hacking” and more like learning how to communicate properly — to humans first, robots second.

Slow, but interesting.

You always hear it: “Building the app is the easy part. The real challenge is finding your users.”
And yep — I’m living that now.

It’s been a while since I pushed a feature PR. Lately, I’ve been deep in the world of SEO:
Studying Google Search Console, obsessing over analytics, diving into SEO audit tools, and reading every “How to rank on Google” guide I can find.

I added a blog to invymate.com and filled it with about 10 SEO-optimized articles.
Surprisingly — it is helping! I started showing up for some long-tail keywords (on page 10+ for now :) ). Still zero clicks, but the impressions are slowly climbing.

Early days, but feels like progress.

Hey Indie Hackers 👋

I recently launched the beta version of InvyMate — a simple tool to help teams manage shared items like gear, tools, and supplies.

The idea came from real pain I’ve seen in coworking spaces and offices: stuff goes missing, no one knows who used it last, and tracking with spreadsheets is a mess. InvyMate aims to solve that with clear item assignments, usage history, and QR code access — so everyone stays on the same page.

It’s still early and I’m validating the idea, so I’d love to get feedback from real users. If you or your team share equipment or resources, I’d be super grateful if you tried it out and shared your thoughts. Bugs, confusion, ideas — all welcome.
