Month 1 Summary: Reddit Validation

Subscribers: 353 🎉(207 from subscribe banner on home page and 146 from Product Hunt Ship)
Traffic/Users: 2,079 🕵️‍♀️
Trends: 872 📈
Insights: 52 👁

After the first 5 weeks I’m absolutely chuffed with the results. (That’s British slang for very pleased!)

I hadn’t set any goals, but 353 email subscribers is way beyond anything I expected.

At this initial pre-launch stage, I had mainly wanted to get some initial users to help iron out any wrinkles and bugs, and to point out any big holes in terms of functionality. And we did that.

But I’m even more pumped that the initial feedback was so overwhelmingly positive. And I’ve been able to take a lot of the feedback gathered to improve Trennd in lots of ways.

There's a more in-depth blog post of all the events: https://trennd.co/blog/june-19-update

    @jhowarth15 this is a brilliant idea. Congratulations and keep growing!! If you are fine with sharing, do you use Google Trends API?

      Yeah the data is based on the google trends API and I have scripts that constantly monitor the web for interesting keywords and topics.
