After a miserable week last week, it was time for some positivity in my life :)
This week I planned some technical stuff for SocialSaaS.io. When a customer subscribes you want to have community.saasdomain.com getting the content from my server. It's not really complicated to have a whole domain getting your content, but I didn't manage to get it working a couple of weeks ago when I last tried.
As you can imagine having this part working is kind of a make or break deal for the whole project. Without the subdomains working the whole idea is worthless.
As the procrastinator that I am, I booked today (Friday) to make it happen. This morning all my tries were fruitless. But right after lunch I tried some other settings on the server and you wouldn't believe it but it works.
Not only does it work, it works so good that when a new customer signs up, I don't have to change anything in my backend.
I don't have a degree in computer science, I'm all auto didact, don't know shit about servers, but after hours and hours of trying and research I made it happen. I'm so proud of myself!
The rest of the week was a mixed bunch. Some things went well, some not so well.
Got another Twitter ban, but still got about 100 extra followers. And I spoke with some great people.
In the meantime I found a website where I could advertise when SocialSaaS has launched.
