I think search engine ads could also be great. We haven't done them yet because we need to target very specific low traffic phrases. This has made it difficult to get our Adwords quality score high enough that Google will actually run

I think Twitter ads are a great place to start. You can get setup with the in under 30 min. You can start with a very low budget. You can start seeing results as early as tomorrow. To give you an idea, for http://www.BromBone.com

Fair enough. Obviously I don't know your situation and I directed my rant too much at your specific comment and not the general issue that I really wanted to speak to.

These are two of the most depressing comment I've ever read, not just on Hackernews, but on the whole internet. So much so that I wonder if they were written with sarcasm that escapes me. They represent a philosophy that is referenced

So what process am I using now that you are going to replace? I must be doing something because my code gets deployed. Give point by point details about how what I am doing right now sucks. It make me hate my job, keeps me up at night, turn

I think you should spend some time to talk about the pain you are fixing. There's no hook. What problem am I having now that you are going to make go away?

You just have a signup for beta button that you are using to collect email address instead of a full pricing page. I understand why people tend to do their for their first version. You're scared that not everything works yet, and you d

Do you mean how did I decide which market to target or how have I marketed to those people? Either way, same answer. I choose a market/community I was already part of and understood. My mistake was not doing that the first time. I knew

I launched BromBone a few months ago. About 150 people signed up and tried it at least once. Most of them never came back after that. No one ever paid. A few weeks ago, I refocused BromBone into a subset of what it was before. I've alr

I was excited to read the article, but it was really long. Seemed like it might take a lot of work to read.

You're right. Getting these first ten is SO hard. After I have ten customers, I will have much more information to base my prices and differentiators on.

I have a section about that. I hope people will read it.

I don't know. That was brought up in my previous posting, and I've had some people email me about it. It's hard for me to tell. I'm just not in that community enough to understand their needs. I'm afraid that every

I almost did that. Ultimately I decided to take an "it just works" philosophy to crawl frequency (unless you need realtime). Would you segment the number of pages differently? I think some sites with a lot of user generated conten

This is actually the method that Google recommends for these AJAX powered websites. https://developers.google.com/webmasters/ajax-crawling/ I am just letting people out source the hard work. Since the rendered pag

It looks like the top journalists are rich. The article says Anderson Cooper is making $10 million per year just from his show and Fareed Zakaria is commanding $75K per appearance. The article says they don't count because they aren&#x

I was about to signup, but I saw that you don't support custom domains yet. Any idea when that is coming?

Everyone is telling you ways to get around this, but IMO, if you aren't using Angular templates, then you really aren't using Angular. ng-repeat, and other powerful directives are what's great about Angular. Instead of writing code to loop
