Paying customer number 3!
by Dan WilloughbyI woke up this morning to a pleasant surprise with an email from stripe. Another customer bought a subscription. It's pretty exciting to see and gives me some more motivation! I've been spending a bit more time in forums and helping people use Pushback. The main forum was NodeRed, which I discovered from my google analytics. I plan to keep working on my docs to help people in these niche markets and hopefully it'll also help my seo.

I think a majority of my early users were from the apple app store and google play store. Beyond that here is a list of other things I've done though (in no particular order):
- Wrote blog posts and shared them on hackernews (could probably do better at sharing).
- Wrote responses on forums
- Live code streamed on Twitch
- Made sure simple SEO things were done, set title and description for each page, made a sitemap and robots.txt, canonical url, etc
- Created docs on how to use the product.
Here are some low effort things I think I still can do:
- Make a youtube video showing how it works.
- Make more docs on niche markets on how to use. e.g. raspberry pi, nodered, BlueIris, etc.
- implement feature requests from users.
- Onboarding/Welcome emails
- Iterate pricing
I think time passing has been the largest factor tbh.
