Sharing some positive vibes!

Sharing some positive vibes! This week, my SaaS app was featured on various websites. That caused a massive peak in traffic and conversions.

On a normal day SiteGuru.co would get about 80 unique visitors, yesterday I had about 700. And instead of the regular 5 signups, I had 200!~The best part: my servers kept humming along nicely, without any hickups.

What's your positive news today?

        Thanks! I'm working with Stackcommerce to give out big discounts on paid plans. Apart from the people that purchase a discount code from them, they give you massive visibility. Definitely worth checking out.

    I have been super stressed not knowing if I’m ready to launch my app! Thanks for the positivity and to hear about the good things that come (for some, lol) when you finally do launch!

    Congratulations! I’m also curious to learn what platform you’re using that handled the scaling so seamlessly.

      I'm on AWS, a combination of Lambda workers and auto-scaling EC2-instances.

    That’s fantastic. Make sure you capitalize on the exposure, which you should have time to do since you aren’t putting out infrastructure fires. Do a post Morten on how you got the exposure and see if you can recreate that.

    Edit to say: I really like your method of grabbing a quick email address to use the tool for free. Great way to build a warm lead mailing list.
