Thomas Wright

I'm a developer who spent 2 weeks building a comparison platform for trading brokers 345 brokers, 10K+ pages, all generated programmatically from a PostgreSQL database with Next.js.

Two weeks after launch: 33K Google impressions, pages already ranking on page 1 for long-tail queries. Zero ad spend.

After almost 20 years writing code for others I finally decided to start writing code for myself and boy did the reality hit hard! I'm still working full time and, unfortunately for me, my passion lies in B2C tools. In the past year I've learned that marketing consumer products, especially in the productivity sector, is brutal, especially when you have no clue what you're doing and most of the advices and books are for B2B SaaS. Well except for the "Don't do it!".
So if you're just like me, a crazy person that also decided to stick with building consumer products, especially if you're bootstrapping - I would love to get inspired by your successes, relate to your struggles and support however I can!
I'm relatively new to PH (have been lurking mostly, haven't even launched here yet), so if there's a special forum for that - I would appreciate the pointers!

Stash Pro The AI-Powered Vault for Everything You Save

I built Stash Pro because I was tired of losing my own content.

14,000 screenshots. 847 bookmarks. 347 YouTube videos in "Watch Later." I saved everything. I found nothing.

Last year, I spent 20 minutes searching for a recipe my mom sent me. I had it somewhere. I knew I did. But after scrolling through Instagram saves, camera roll, and 3 different bookmark folders nothing.
