    Are you an ENTP and wonder why you can't get things done when working for yourself?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I've always been very confused by Elon. He doesn't look like an INTJ at all to me, more like an INTP (I know a few of each type). But people who have a deeper knowledge of MBTI tend to type him as an INTJ, so I must be wrong. I just find him too childish and clowny to be an INTJ. Not to mention...

    I found Gifts Differing very good. By the person who invented MBTI.

    What's the line between this and the starving artist archetype? I always found it difficult to find the sweet spot. Say someone wants to work for free on things he/she loves and do good to others. But that person needs to work a full-time job to pay the bills. Working on a business on the side...

    do you guys think that learning to code is needed to start an online business

    IDEA 
    Looks like so many people bought into the AI hype and think they can "code" something substantial with ChatGPT & sons. Good luck with that! Agree. 13 years here. Sometimes I still don't know what I'm doing depite what people would call a "successful" career. It is impossible to know everything...

    Google Unveils New Search Generative Experience. Is SEO Dead?

    CHAT 
    Then no one will dare writing anything and Google won't have much to show. I'm sure there'll be a sweet spot somehow. I still click on the snippets for more context, usually. Everyone browses differently. I don't know about actual statistics, to be honest. So I don't know what's more common.

    Google Unveils New Search Generative Experience. Is SEO Dead?

    CHAT 
    Is this the new Bard thingy, or a different tech? I haven't been following lately as I don't want to get even more distracted. But I remember reading that Bard sucked because it was based on GPT. Maybe that was misinformation, or they just released a subpar version to weaken their enemies...

    Facebook Ads, Landing Page, and Conversion Rate

    MARKETING 
    The ads are optimised for going to the landing page. I haven't tried hotjar, but I'll have a look. In theory, users are hitting the landing page. Another question is whether mobile users scroll to the bottom and finish looking at everything and just ignore the sign up button, or they give up...

    That's a good point. User acquisition needs to be tested too. Otherwise there might be surprises down the road.

    Facebook Ads, Landing Page, and Conversion Rate

    MARKETING 
    Cool! Let's see. This app is not as trivial to make as I'd like, so I want to have some confidence that there's some actual interest before I sit down and make an MVP. I want to validate it from other angles too. But I've had a few cases where people said "this is a great idea" and then no one...

    Not by default. I would expect these guys had this baked in, but nope. It is possible to add Google Analytics, I've seen a few tutorials. That sounds like a great idea. Sending them a video can increase engagement. I'll give it a shot :)

    Thanks, I'll have a look at your thread! So far only 2 subscribers in total, and it took a few days to get one. I can share the numbers, but look dismal to me: These are the two Facebook ads (with nice creatives) where I drop a link and a "Learn More" button. The second one is doing much...

    Should you code yourself if your idea is actually great?

    SAAS / APPS 
    I'm a code monkey, so I'm biased. Use at your own risk: I'd recommend, in this order: Partner with someone who can build an MVP. Good luck with this though, as the big chunk of the initial time investment relies on that person and I would personally not build someone else's idea for revenue...

    MARKETING 
    Hey, I've been running ads for a week for a mobile app idea. I created landing page with a screenshot and a description of the app, and a "drop your email" form. I'm driving traffic with a few Facebook posts and ads. My question is: what is a good conversion rate for landing pages? So far...

    Hilarious. The cold shower bros did a good job bullshitting so many dudes. Out of curiosity, do you leave in a country where it's like negative in winter too? I always wonder how productive people in Siberia are when they get ill after a cold shower in February. I'm not sure how reading is...

    Out of curiosity, any specific reason why you chose Vue JS? If I were to learn web development today, I'd choose React because there's more freelancing opportunities should I want go that route. Vue has got a pretty small adoption.

    Following. You are doing amazing! I heard on some video of Chrome extensions being a very overlooked business. I think you are right. I actually built a Chrome extension for a client a few years ago as a one-off. But I never thought of approaching them as micro-SaaS. I'll stay away for now as...

    A few things happened in the last 12 days: Mobile game The mobile game got another 4 IAP. It's made around $20 or so between that and ads. Things looked rosy until the update I made kicked into the Play Store's algorithm and the traffic dropped like a rock. I've seen other folks complaining...
