@roxkstar74 Thanks for sharing this!

@GilliSig When did you start working on SEO before the uptick?

@archiethedev Exactly this! 💯

Friday afternoon update: Cove $973 (+$24) Gloat $957 (+$51)

@florinpop1705 I don’t have the confidence to code stuff live 😬 Any suggestions?

@RohitGulam Yes probably some more content!

@RakhraDivij ilo.so. DM me and I can add you as an affiliate

@jsngr 💯 This is why I make marketing sites very early on in a product or feature lifecycle. It forces me to succinctly explain how things work and form an early concept. Incredibly useful and never a waste of time (the site is 80% done before I need it)

@gregisenberg I always think a human face is better. Trouble is you've built a huge audience with a recognisable avatar. Still, I think I'd change it

@AngeZanetti @pipesocialHQ Sounds great!

@AngeZanetti Being able to mark a convo somehow so I can go back to it. “Mark unread” would be the easiest. The best would be a “remind me” feature that puts the convo back at the top of the list at a certain time. Like this (from Twobird): pic.twitter.com/aWkdVnk4EO

@DivDev_ @tibo_maker @cogentgene I don't really ever have a plan 😄 I post progress on Twitter and have done a total of one ProductHunt launch. I post some larger milestones on my products on IndieHackers (eg indiehackers.com/product/ilo)

@theandreboso Ooh nice tip!

@jmckinven @indiebitespod What a ride. Can’t wait to see it grow much bigger! So glad to have been a part of it so early on and to be one of the first paying members 😁 One if my favourite podcasts ever

@ugnich Yep, there's a threshold. But "EU, Australian, UAE etc. digital taxes don't just apply to companies in those countries. They apply to everyone (that's the point)." is valid. That's not debatable.

@GilliSig The API doesn't have what's needed to run a SaaS on it yet. They mention SaaS but it's definitely seems to have been built primarily for digital products. Pricing is high too: either 8% + 30c or then pay a monthly fee ($29 or $79) plus normal card fees on top.

@GilliSig I wouldn’t use it for SaaS subscriptions. Only digital products. So for me they are for different uses

@iainbroome Ideally the feature lists and names etc would be available in themes so you don’t have to use Portal. Then everything can be managed in the admin rather than the template

Looks like Portal-only for now. Nothing in the theme docs for this at the moment

@robertbalazsi Of course!

@GilliSig I've moved my gloat.dev products to Lemon Squeezy. Lovely to use and does the job well

@edanbenatar Mailgun for transactional, Mailerlite for product updates

@robhope Oooh love this one!

@dagorenouf On my list 😄

@danbruzual No automations. I deploy manually every time

@tysonlawrie No. They're not companies themselves just names and projects within one company

@JeffKelleyBV @aq_aslam @razvanilin Love this 😆

@ajuchacko91 Yep!

@jakubhavej 😆 twitter.com/dr/status/1301…

@jacksondame @iloAnalytics Happy to hear this, and thanks for signing up! 💯

@luketylermp3 I think I'm just used to it. I jump between things all day, every day. I do block off days for a single task sometimes, but as I have so many things going on I've just had to get comfortable moving between projects at the drop of a hat if need be.

@monicalent “Pays for itself” is such a good way to position a paid product. I’ve been thinking something similar for a referrals/affiliate product. Making that statement up front is clever

@ErmanKuplu I appreciate that Erman! Thank you for being a customer 🙌🏼

@RohitGulam At recent rates it will be Gloat

@joebell_ I'd much rather do the API work up front in exchange for the simplicity. I don't want to track threshholds in each jurisdiction and then later on figure out how to start charging and remitting tax. Paddle's single integration and monthly payout is 👌🏼 pic.twitter.com/odp6z2fhPE

Providers like Gumroad, Lemon Squeezy and Paddle handle tax on your behalf (they are Merchants of Record) so you never have to worry about digital taxes.

@matteing I've made a living charging people on Paddle's API. It's not so bad 😄

@_tijs @andraz_polajzer @matteing They help you calculate the tax required, but you have to send it to each country yourself (headache). Paddle, Gumroad etc do this for you.

@tonyszko @vanschneider Thanks for sharing Tomasz! There are some other Ghost hosts with different pricing: gloathost.com/blog/cheaper-g…

@yashjaing @frankdilo Check out oEmbed. There’s a protocol set up which platforms (eg Notion) can use to easily embed using just a URL

@bagelsangranola I design in Sketch and then just code HTML pages. Very basic but I find it’s the simplest way

@mddanishyusuf Thanks for the mention Mohd! 👊🏼

@damengchen Thanks for sharing that ✨ You’re showing a ton of people what’s possible. Can’t wait to get there myself one day

At +3k likes and 100 retweets this tweet is probably already over 100k impressions. That’s a lot of people.

@damengchen We’ll done Damon! The dream

@Nick_Franklin Love this, Nick

@DivDev_ Django 👍🏼

@robertodigital_ @CaucasusMercury @nikita_builds Thanks for jumping in Roberto!

@jakubhavej @OzolinsJanis 😆 I was going to reply "but my whole week is empty"... But seriously, only maybe only a few hours to finish off one page, and we're golden!

@CaucasusMercury @nikita_builds This was another option I was looking at. What are pros and cons? I'd need to choose one as the "original" I think?

@nikita_builds OK nice and easy then! Thanks!

@chernikovalexey Sounds nice and simple, thank you!

@richardpetersen Adding a new dynamic to the question! 😅 They're both targeted at Ghost publishers, but as Gloat is a host it feels like it relates to more people than Cove, which is an add-on community tool. I like your ideas! Thank you 🙌🏼

FYI these are the same columns as on ilo.so's Growth page... pic.twitter.com/na4y9mJwYr

@Nick_Franklin @ChartMogul Definitely. Can be hard to not tweet about things like that. Just write it into a notes app instead. Positivity all the way (tweet sentiment and positivity tracking is coming to ilo soon)

@Nick_Franklin @ChartMogul 🙌🏼 I personally tweet whatever I like, without stressing too much, but using ilo for a year, I now know what topics to stick to and what to avoid. Super useful.

@Nick_Franklin @ChartMogul • tweet every day: show up consistently, try different content • share stuff that comes from your unique life/position, which others can learn from Then use ilo.so to track which tweets resonate and get highest engagement/impressions, and do more of those.

@_heyglassy Thank you Christian. Super useful 🙌🏼

@joshuaanderton @meepsapp Yes!

@theandreboso Don’t tempt me

@RohitGulam @florinpop1705 Thanks Rohit!

Current site for reference. Definitely needs some love. cove.chat

@suminohh I'm adding Spaces analytics atm, so that's a totally different "product" that what ilo has been since day one. So technically, yes, different segments. But it also allows me to add a "twitter-spaces-analytics" page for SEO 🙌🏼

@james_a_rob I'm not sure about collaboration (I think Figma wins at this), but I moved all my Sketch stuff online so that it's available anywhere I am

@archiethedev Thanks Archie! One pagers are great but so restrictive. I’ve got a lot of info locked up in me that can easily be shared on a few different pages 👍🏼

@james_a_rob This is Sketch 👌🏼

@thisdickie Thanks Sam! 👊🏼

@dagorenouf Glad to hear it! One of the core metrics we need to be mindful of

@petecodes Totally depends what you need JS for. I don't need React, so I don't use it. But learn JS first so you know what React is doing and how it works.

All sites on gloathost.com will be upgraded to v4.14.0 today.

@damengchen @mijustin Love this!

Analytics from @iloAnalytics ilo.so

In this example, there are tweets with a wide range of impressions, but it's still super easy to see which tweets users have engaged with most. EPI = Engagements per Impression Bonus: It's easy to see here I've had higher engagement in Aug & Sep, compared to June & July. pic.twitter.com/hxL0HkW9Y8

@jones_spencera Just tweet 33–50% more in a month👍🏼

@nateritter I like this one. I'm trying this atm!

@mauerbac Thanks Matt! A community seems like a powerful tool. Is it a lot of work for you?

@noahwbragg Do you think there's a limit to building in public? I feel like I've hit a wall converting BIP into new customers

@pjrvs Ah, the easiest one of all 😅

@richardpetersen They were bought by GoDaddy then shut down

@cogentgene It's a few weeks old. I've only seen it once so far. Not sure how many people will blindly just follow 10 people...

@stevediaconou I’m no expert lol but I was catching waves. Was awesome!
