Finally!
After 1000+ hours of work.

The day has come. I've been building Pingr for the whole year, literally spent more than 1000 hours.
I had to cope with depression, with joy, with failure and success.
Even though it's only the first step in this long journey of being Indie Hacker, it's still very very important for me.
Now, the pulse is going high, the caffeine is going in, and hopefully the launch will go to be successful.
Thank you, Indie Hackers, you're the best community I've ever met! :)
What?! 1000 hours? Your service just sends ping
, what could take so long? :D
Just kidding. Good luck with the launch!
At the moment I write this, it's #1 for the Day!!
Congrats on the launch!
I'm going to faint
congrats @Akcium, that's a lot of work and so glad to see it make #1! I've been working on something for 1.5 yrs (i'm just slower than you haha) - we're launching Friday. Would you be willing to dm and share any tips??
I'm currently on UptimeRobot, what would be some feature/reason to make me migrate?
Well, are you on their free plan?
It depends on what you need. If you're on free plan and you have all you need there, then you shouldn't migrate.
But some advanced features like setting http headers, ssl monitoring, etc are paid in uptimerobot.
My idea was to include all features in all plans, and just make everything better than uptimerobot have. Like better status pages, more information of about uptime/response time etc.
But obviously I cannot do this at once, so I'll gradually ship updates.
Anyway, I would REALLY appreciate, if you tell me if there is something you miss in uptimerobot or don't like about it.
Yes I'm on the free plan and I don't feel like missing something but TBH I may also don't know what I'm missing
Oh, how about you just try to use my service a bit, I'll prolong your subscription as long as you need. So I'm not selling it to you, rather want to get some beta-testers :)
Anyway maybe you'd want just to talk, I'm always open on Twitter/Email, https://twitter.com/vponamariov :)
the price is very bold
On the one hand yes
On the other hand it depends. Probably for now it's pricy but the advantage is that I include all features in all plans. All next features will be included too. So eventually it'll grow up to not only monitoring but also performance analytics.
If I don't have to pay for multiple locations, like monitoring from one without any speed metrics, then I would reduce the price like 5 times.
That's the tradeoff:
Congrats Victor! You're number 1! Upvoted!
Plausible is the best! :)
After two and a half years of launching. How valuable did you think the launch on PH was for your company?
I'm late, but still impressed - congrats!
A bit late to the game, but congrats @Akcium!! Looks like you made it to the #1 spot too. 👏🏽
We're also planning for our PH launch and I'd love to hear how you primed yours!! Let me know if you're up for a chat. 🙂
Haha, indeed a bit late :) I've already launched a second time, another product.
Anyway, I'm available on Twitter https://twitter.com/vponamariov
or @Akcium Telegram
Oooh, sounds interesting! Added you over on Twitter, but might be easier to find a common time here (if you're up for it!): https://calendly.com/cheska-teresa/chat-with-cheska
Very high pricing! No freemium pricing. Tools like Freshping by Freshworks https://www.freshworks.com/website-monitoring/ offer free website monitoring for free for life! Beat that!
$36 for SSL monitoring from freshpingr
$11 for custom http headers or
"Alert only when my site is down for X minutes" or
Set timeout.
Sooner or later I'll have all their features included in all plans.
But for basic monitoring yes, they are cool, I agree.
I will use this once done with my project
Thank you, if you need some features, just drop me a line to [email protected]
This is great and very simple to use! Best of luck with launch and MRR growth!!
Thank you! :)
Dang, Akcium
Congratz, man
I was following your journey for Pinger when you first created it and when you got your first customer and lifetime deal.
Have been following your journey on twitter. Rooting for you to finish #1 of the day.
I'm very happy to hear that!
Congrats! 🎉
Just upvoted :)
Thank you Brayden! :)
Looking like a solid launch, well done and congrats!
Thank you!
Love your nickname :)
Congrats on the launch @Akcium, you got my vote on PH! Have you built that lifetime deal thingy yourself? Feels like something I might wanna use for our launch too.
Keep up the great work 👏
Thank you!
I made it myself :)
