It's been 3 months since I launched my side-project: https://www.producthunt.com/post... Recently it's been acquired :) While the project didn’t generate income, it did get a lot of attention, an increasing subscriber base, and a strong domain authority, all of which while growing completely organic. The potential is high and it’s at a great starting point. I'm currently embarking on writing my experiences of building, marketing and selling a side-project in an e-book: https://gum.co/side-project I encourage you to check it out!

@arijeethq Welcome Arijeet! Some tips: 1. Build in the open. Be transparent and share your numbers of traffic and revenue. It will draw attention and with it users. 2. be active on social media and share news about your project. 3. Write a blog. This will get potential users organically to you. You can read my book at https://gum.co/side-project I will be sharing more tips and will go more in depth on how I went about it with the side-project I just sold..
