Off the top of my head, I think you'll maintain the most traffic if your service is gratis, like Craigslist but maybe collect some analytics and sell some ad space? Offer the option to pay for a "promoted" slot like Reddit and Google?
Others might have more creative solutions than I do here...
As far as aggregate data you collect from the site I'm in the dark.
I really like the idea of collecting some more direct software needs. It seems like a good space to crawl for project ideas if nothing else.
What library are you using for the UI? Is that Bootstrap material design? There are some more polished versions of the same sort of thing which might tie everything together a little more (particularly that app bar). But I'm just nitpicking now. It's a very clean layout.
I would add a "Home" or "List" option in your menu as well. I know the title goes back but it's typically good practice. That or add a "back to list" button of some kind on the posting template.
Again I like they idea! It is a bit different from freelance work websites where its a basically big feeding frenzy sometimes. Maybe that's only because it's quiet right now, I don't know. Anyway, it all works and its fast. Nice job.
- cdiamand 9y agoHi there! Thanks so much for the feedback! Adding a few of these to my trello right now :) Yep using bootstrap material design. I seeded the site using submissions from my other project http://oppsdaily.com http://oppsdaily.com, its just an archive of the daily e-mails at the moment, but if it becomes something akin to the craigslist of business problems, I'd be very happy!
