I've been working on my own Time Tracking tool since 2015 as a side project. I've managed to break 1k MMR. The competition is just insane. Every day I discover a couple new time tracking tools, and every one of them looks better than the last one. I've actually started exploring other SaaS ideas on the side (nothing too serious yet though).

Ads really suck at our pricing point. Google & Bing are $5+ CPC for most of the main time tracking keywords. Facebook ads were horrible from my experience (and none of the other major time tracking tools are running them).

I don't really have any advice, but do want to wish you the best of luck!

thanks and i would love to see your time tracking tool and congrats on $1k MMR - I know it's not a huge success but it's something :)

logmyhours.com - I'm happy with it so far though, it's something I've built for myself (I log all my hours working on it) and 100% on my own and has been a great learning experience. But it is getting harder and harder to work after work.

I love that I get to chat with customers and see what really are their pain points (something devs rarely ever get to do).

If I can double the MRR and relocate outside of Vancouver, I can most likely go full-time.

Hope you are able to do that. I guess at your point it's getting a few more clients via different scrappy ways (cold outreach, etc), and keep using their feedback/behavior to improve the product.
