    Hey Derek, nice website and branding, just a quick question though. How are you getting people to subscribe to your newsletter?

    1. 1

      Thanks. Everyone is signing up organically. I have a couple newsletters, but your conversion rate is going to depend on your traffic source. I'd be glad to recommend some tips once you have a live project on IH. 👍

    Holy cow - well done on that .com domain name! Are you tracking how much type-in traffic you're receiving?

      Hey Peter, thanks. What's up job board buddy? 😄

      I was tracking it leading up to launch and it was usually around 1k visits per week with ~80% from the US. A lot of people were emailing to see if I'd sell the domain and then I started getting spammed a bunch too. There are definitely pros and cons to having a top tier domain. My view is that a great name wouldn't hurt, but just might help and I think it's been pretty helpful so far. 🤓

    Nice site! How long did it take to get to 7k MRR?

    1. 1

      Thanks! This is less than a month, but it's not MRR since it's not recurring. I've debated the idea of a subscription model, but all the other job boards that charge a recurring fee are probably overcharging customers who forget to cancel as soon as they've filled their role.

    The site is looking great and nice name too.

    Did you acquire the domain from 10up or you are working with 10up 🤔

      Thanks for the comment - I really enjoy clean designs and a great domain doesn't hurt. 😄

      I acquired the domain from 10up at the start of the year. I'll feature their brand in an upcoming post too.

      Having a name is one thing, but now the real journey begins. 🚣
