James,
I noticed you live in Las Vegas, I spent two years there, I absolutely loved it, it's a great place!
I'm also a self-taught coder, I've been building a website that simplifies the process of invoicing for freelancers (using Stripe to process payments). I'm getting people creating accounts, but nobody is using the site. My gut feeling is that it isn't solving a "painful" enough problem, while the current sites available aren't perfect, they're not really that bad either. I'm thinking of pivoting and creating a competitor to websites like Upwork and PPH.
Do you have any thoughts on pursuing this path? Anything I might need to be aware of?
@AdamMaxum 's advice is very good. This is exactly what I seen as well. I actually attempted to which was my first app called Freelancify. That market takes a really, really long time to gain traction or you have to bring something new/different to the table that has a dramatic impact.
IMO; I'd prob look at other ideas.
