| Hey, I have an answer to this! and its part of a successful assumption I've been able to make for new ventures. Basically, you do explore and visit plenty of sites, but you click through to them from timelines and what your friends shared in groupchats. My successful assumption has been this: the URL does not matter. or more specifically, the TLD does not matter. .coms do not matter. By proxy, SEO usually does not matter either. Your client base is going to click through to your domain name from seeing it shared somewhere else. Or, lets get even more specific or perhaps grim: if your business model relies on people randomly finding your service from a search engine, or typing in the direct url, you have failed. if "failure" is too strong, then pointing out how much time and effort is being wasted from the strategy and how much alpha is being missed from better more relevant business models is more accurate. so back to you, you explore from the timelines and chat rooms. if thats not good enough you need more exciting communities to be a part of. |
