Where do you stand about developing a web app on a no-code platform?
We are currently building an automated task management app on Bubble.io. The platform is quite comprehensive, however as expected there are some limitations when it compared to native applications. I experienced that these limitations are easily resolvable by embedding some code inside, and no-code development definitely fastens the app development process. What do you think about no-code app development platforms? Have you used one before? Let's meet in the comments!
How do you grow your newsletter? 👀
Hey Product Hunters! Recently I launched a newsletter with weekly marketing case studies from profitable Solopreneurs (https://makerbox.ck.page/marketi...). Last week, I tried content repurposing and got around 50 new subscribers: autoplug on Twitter next issue teaser on Twitter repurposing content on Product Hunt discussions repurposing content on Indie Hackers To be honest, kinda dissatisfied with the growth. I thought I could grow at least +100 So, how do you promote your newsletter?
I went from 0 to 13K Followers on Twitter in 10 months. Here's how 👀
1. Growth from 0 to 100 followers I connected with people (in DM) who did the same things as me at that time. As a result, we engaged with each other content. More engagement more impressions more new connections. Also, I added some boosters for a smooth start: active hashtags, tagged tools, and used visual content. If I should start from the beginning once again, I d do the same. 2. Growth from 100 to 1K followers I stayed consistent. Tweeted 1-2 times daily, replied 10-20 times daily, connected with new people, and experimented with new content formats. Yes, it takes time. What helped? Buildinpublic, Growinpublic, and Learninpublic content. You don t need to be a content farm providing educational content 24/7. 3. Growth from 1K to 5K followers I continued being consistent and engaging with followers. The only change - I switched my focus from engaging with big accounts to engaging in my account. 4. Growth from 5K to 13K followers Experiments, experiments, and one more time experiments. At this point, you need to stand out from the accounts in the same niche. The good decision is to add some personal content about your lifestyle, traveling, etc., so that people remember you. Growing your personal brand gives you a lot of opportunities. So, start small, find your audience, experiment, double down on what works, and most importantly - have fun. P.S. I deconstructed my growth from the very beginning in a Notion file.

10 proven tips for a successful launch on Product Hunt 🚀
I launched 8 products and got #1 Product of the Day with 3 MakerBox products (https://www.makerbox.club/). It generated 20K+ website visitors and over $15K in revenue (only from PH launches). Here're 10 proven tips for your successful launch 1. Be an active community member By being active on the platform, you get points and followers. Why? Your followers are notified when you launch Points give you more credibility How? Create and engage in discussions Check launches and comment 2. Build your audience on Twitter or LinkedIn To launch successfully, you need people to support your launch. I recommend #buildinpublic and connecting with other Founders. That's the best way to get feedback, advice, and support. 3. Get feedback on your product and landing page Early users and beta testers will give you: valuable feedback testimonials for your landing page = social proof support on the launch day Best platforms to get feedback: Product Hunt discussions, Polywork, Indie Hackers. 4. Prepare your landing page for the launch embed the launch badge put some kitties, Product Hunt community loves them! 5. Create a special offer You have a limited offer Website visitors have more motivation to sign up right now. Product Hunt brings you lots of website visitors. So, take this opportunity and convert more. 6. Choose the launch day wisely Mon Thu are highly competitive, but give you more traffic. Fri Sun are less competitive, but the traffic is also less. Chances to win Product of the Day are higher on Fri-Sun. But if you have a huge audience, then launch on Mon-Thu. 7. Schedule the launch. Product Hunt has an amazing guide for preparing all the necessary content correctly. Don't forget to read it https://www.producthunt.com/laun... 8. Announce your future launch on your Socials Remember: you need people to support you on the launch. If you have a Twitter or LinkedIn audience (even if it's small), make sure they won't miss your launch. 9. Prepare the launch distribution plan beforehand Plan every time slot and every distribution channel. It'll help you stick to the plan and be calm. Your e-mail list, reaching beta-tester and early-users, announcing on your Socials, Slack, Discord, and other channels. 10. Engage a lot on the launch day Reply to comments on your launch page Post your launch milestones Run AMA on Product Hunt discussions Everyone should know about your launch Hope it helps, wish everyone a great launch!
