The good thing is that usually you just keep growing from this. Now it’s making $1k per month, mostly because of sharing it with the world and implementing recurrent annoyances shared by users.
It’s important to have a way for users to contact you. I love Formspark.io for that, just slap a contact form on the app website and emails will start coming.
Thanks for following up. One q: I suck at building landing pages. Do you have any tips here? I have some ok-ish copy already distinct from the App Store page, but I hate finagling HTML.
In my experience, knowing CSS is 90% of making a pretty and informative page. HTML is mostly just h1 for title, h2 for subtitle, div for groups and p for copy text.
I don’t like writing neither HTML nor CSS so my websites are written in Plim with Tailwind classes for styling.
section#hero.min-w-[100vw].flex-center.flex-col.relative.pb-20
img.w-28.h-28.md:w-32.md:h-32.filter.drop-shadow-2xl src="/static/img/clop-icon.png"
h1.mb-6.text-4xl.text-zinc-600 Clop
h5.text-gray-500.m-0.p-0 Clipboard optimizer for images
h5.text-gray-500.m-0.p-0.-mt-1 Copy large, paste small, send fast
You can see how most of the text is just Tailwind classes which are basically CSS one liners.
It’s not easy to understand nor pretty to read, but it makes for super fast iteration time, especially because of the responsive breakpoints (e.g. .flex-col.md:flex-row for a vertical layout on mobile and horizontal on desktop)
Thanks! I'll give it another shot; by the time I get around to working on marketing web stuff in my day (after work + parenting) I am pretty tired so I never give it a fair shot. Will check out carrd.io.
