Buy Apollo app for $100k. Hype up that we will build a Reddit competitor and take advantage of the hatred for Reddit's management. Clone Reddit's API endpoints so existing Apollo app will just "work". See if we can legally keep using Reddit's content as the seed content. Maybe allow existing Reddit users to "Log In with Reddit" and then ask if they want to pull their history from Reddit over to Apollo. Also give them an option to delete all their Reddit content after transferring to Apollo.
Relaunch the Apollo app with the above strategy. Next, build a website to compete with Reddit.com and to get SEO.
Go from there.
- geoah 3y agoDoesn’t seem apollo is for sale right now, and it looks like the price would have been closer to 10m if the recent rants from the dev are any indication. Would have been a good price if it was cross platform.
- senttoschool 3y agoHe said the $10m wasn’t serious and he said he might consider selling it if the right offer and mission presents itself.
