Over $10k total revenue in 2 months

Wow, it's only been 2 months since I released the first version and Spider Pro has made over $10k! I'm very excited, exhausted and thankful about this milestone.

Two weeks ago Spider Pro was featured on HackerNews's frontpage and it brought a huge amount of traffic to tryspider.com. Hilariously, I saw a jump from 53 users(not a typo) to 12k users and 300+ signup for the trials.

Now the traffic has slowed down a bit, I've been thinking to write about my thoughts on making an extension product and lessons learned. Long story short, I probably will not create another extension product again. Why? Please stay tuned :)

    I think your experience of being featured on HackerNews can be pretty useful to other Makers. What do you think about sharing your story at Hackernoon? i'm sure people will adore it
