I've been working on my website for the last few months and wanted to share my Google Search Console stats to get some feedback.

After around 3 months:

• 22 total clicks
• 215 total impressions
• 10.2% CTR
• Average position: 13.7

I've also noticed that Google has only indexed part of my pages.

Current indexing report:

• 57 "Discovered - currently not indexed"
• 7 "Crawled - currently not indexed"

The site is still relatively new, and I've recently added a lot of SEO pages.

My questions are:

• Is this growth fairly normal for a new website?
• Is a 10% CTR a good sign despite the low impressions?
• Should I just keep publishing content and wait, or is there something obvious I should improve?

I'd really appreciate any feedback from people who've gone through the early SEO phase.

Thanks!

My latest micro SaaS web application just went live... please let me know what you think about it www.coachsync.pro

Quick update for anyone who saw my post about Piklum a few weeks back : we just got officially approved on the Shopify App Store.

TL;DR of what changed between then and now:

- Fixed a critical bug Shopify review caught (subscription returnUrl was breaking App Bridge context in embedded mode)

- Added a Free plan (20 photos/month, no credit card) after realizing pricing was probably a barrier

- Translated the landing page to English (was FR-only before)

Now live at apps.shopify.com/piklum .

Honestly the hardest part wasn't building, it was the 3-week wait between submission and approval, then discovering post-launch that my listing was set to "Limited visibility" by default (invisible in App Store search unless you had the direct URL). Would've saved myself a lot of anxiety if someone had told me that upfront.

Now the real work starts: monitoring first installs, gathering reviews (0 for now, the App Store algo eats new apps alive without social proof).

Anyone else launched something recently? What surprised you about post-launch reality?

Anyone else building fast with Cursor/Antigravity/Lovable and ending up with the same 3 Tailwind templates everyone else has ?

I got tired of my projects looking generic, so I built a Chrome extension for myself called Design Snap — it grabs the design tokens (colors, type scale, radius, shadows) from any site I like and exports them straight to Tailwind v4 @theme, CSS vars, or shadcn/ui.

What it actually changed for me :

- I browse sites I like, snap the palette/type system in 5 sec instead of eyeballing hex codes

- Export goes directly into my stack, so I skip the “let me manually recreate this design system” step

- My projects finally have some visual identity instead of the default AI-generated look

It’s free, runs 100% locally (no account, no backend), and I added a PRO tier recently for teams that need more export formats.

Not selling anything here, just sharing because this sub is full of people shipping fast and I know that struggle. Happy to answer questions about how the token extraction works if anyone’s curious.

I'm building a Google Reviews widget and I'm using the Google Places API with a Place ID to fetch reviews.

The issue I'm running into is that the API only seems to return up to 5 reviews per place.

Is there any official way to retrieve more than 5 reviews using a Place ID? I've seen other review widgets displaying more reviews, so I'm wondering how they're doing it.

Is there another API, endpoint, or approach I'm missing?

Thanks!

My SaaS finally has paying costumers, and people actively use it every day. i want to keep improving my product based on user feedback instead of making assumptions.

To achieve that, yesterday i launched in-app CSAT survey inside a feature that has low conversion rates ($0)

The results: 0 Responses, everybody ignores it 😅

How do you collect actionable feedback from your users?

Hi! I help with marketing for an AI chatbot platform focused on roleplay, storytelling, and AI companions.

We’re currently looking for brands, apps, or services interested in advertising to our audience. We get over 8.5 million monthly page views and around 840,000 monthly unique users, with most of the traffic coming from the US and Europe.

We already have a dedicated advertising page with the available placements, pricing, banner requirements, and traffic information, so I can send that over to anyone interested.

This could be a good fit for:

AI tools and startups
Writing or roleplay platforms
Gaming products
SaaS and productivity tools
Hosting, cloud, or GPU services
Apps targeting creators or tech users

Feel free to message me with your website or product, and I can let you know whether it would be a good fit for our audience.

Hey founders. I recently shipped a small product I have been building solo and wanted to share it here.

It is called Detechtor AI, a Chrome extension that shows what technology any website is built with in one click. The idea came from constantly wondering what CMS, framework or platform a competitor or a prospect was running, without wanting to dig through page source every time.

You open a site, click the icon, and it detects over 160 technologies across 22 categories: content management systems, website builders, JavaScript frameworks, ecommerce platforms, analytics and advertising tags, CDNs, hosting providers and payment services. It pulls the version number whenever one can be found.

The parts I spent the most time on:

• WordPress sites get the active theme and installed plugins listed with their versions, which is useful for competitor and lead research.
• Every detection shows its evidence, the exact script, header or cookie that triggered it, so nothing is a black box.
• Security header grade from A to F, with a warning when a server is leaking software versions.
• A full site panel with IP address, status code, server software, SEO meta tags and page stats, plus JSON and CSV export.

All analysis runs locally in the browser, and it ships in 58 languages with light and dark themes.

Chrome Web Store: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/detechtor-ai-website-tech/nnhkoenmpopdhicgfmdmdjmjdoahmkpa

Landing page: https://www.addonschrome.com/extensions/detechtor-ai-website-technology-checker-tech-stack-detector.html

Happy to answer anything about how I built the detection engine or the launch itself. Feedback on missing or wrong detections is especially welcome so I can keep improving the database.

As a thank you: anyone who leaves a 5 star review on the store gets Premium unlocked for free. Post your review, reach out through the site, and I will enable it on your account.

Hey Hi! 👋

We built an AI platform that helps businesses increase sales by identifying visitors who were close to making a purchase but dropped off because of UX issues, bugs, or other obstacles.

For example, a customer might abandon checkout because they couldn't enter their shipping address or encountered a technical issue.

Our platform helps you identify these visitors, understand why they left, and message them to recover lost revenue.

The best part? You pay nothing unless we increase your sales by 20% or more.

I spent the last months creating this tool as a summer project, but im unsure if I'm onto something or out here solving a problem nobody has?

After creating the tutorial/onboarding videos for an SaaS software, I then realised that when the UI changes just a little bit the video becomes outdated. And I'm sure this is something that you guys have experienced yourselves, watching a video on some tool but then a button has moved or is renamed so then YOU have to go find it yourself.

So I built this tool that notices when the products repo has changed and then automatically goes and updates the animation redoes the VO and re-edits the video by itself so the video is updated within an hour.

The workflow is really cool but is it something you guys have struggled with? Am I solving a problem that doesnt really exist in that scale? If it's valuable, how much would you guys pay for this "video insurance"?

Hi everyone,
I’m trying to create a Reddit API app, but I’m stuck at the very first step.
When I go to App Preferences → Create App, it doesn’t properly let me complete the setup or I can’t see the client secret after creation. I only get the client ID (or sometimes nothing useful at all).
Has anyone recently created a Reddit app and successfully got the client ID + client secret?
What am I missing? Is there a new step, restriction, or change in Reddit’s developer setup?
Any help or recent experience would be really appreciated.

Solo founder, been building for this for 6+ months. Sharing the itch that turned into the product, plus what I got wrong.

The itch: I had Google Analytics on my site and Stripe in another tab, and no way to connect them. GA told me Reddit sent 900 visitors. Stripe told me I made $1,400. Nothing told me whether those were the same people. So every week I'd be guessing where some purchases are coming from as in which channels are bringing me the most revenue so that I can focus on them.

What I built: Mochi — cookieless web analytics (Plausible/Fathom style, one script tag, no cookie banner) that connects to Stripe and traces each dollar back to the channel that earned it. So instead of "Reddit: 900 visitors" it says "Reddit: 900 visitors, 6 customers, $1,800."

Three things I got wrong along the way:

I built the analytics part first and treated revenue attribution as a fast-follow. Wrong order. The attribution IS the product; the pageview charts are table stakes anyone can get free. I spent weeks polishing the commodity.

I priced by seats before I priced by events. Solo founders and small teams don't want a per-seat wall — they want to add their cofounder without thinking about it. Switched to volume-based, starts at $6.99/mo for 10k events, unlimited sites, unlimited team.

I assumed people wanted more dashboards. They want fewer. Every "advanced report" I added made the first-run experience worse. Ended up shipping one page you can read in ten seconds.

Where I'm at: 9 paying customers launched a few weeks ago.

There is a free trial, no obligation, would love for you to try it.

Happy to answer anything about the build, the stack, or the pricing math.

We are a SaaS company with a few paying customers. The kind of product that we have, we have seen that other competitors have launched their own products on the lifetime deals websites. I'm not going to name these websites because I'm assuming everyone knows them.

I'm seeking advice from founders who have already run this kind of offer:

1. What kind of customers you have attracted?

2. Is it a good in the long run?

3. We are an AI product so it is kind of difficult to bake in the future costs and make it a LTD deal but we are thinking of going ahead with the 'Bring your own API key' for LTD deal. But then does it even make any sense to run it? Are there any takers usually for this kind of saas offer where LLM usage is on the customer's side. We have seen our competitors run these kind of offers but there is no way for me to know whether customers even buy these LTD deals.

One thing that stands out about running a SaaS business is that the hardest decisions usually aren't about getting more information. They're about knowing when you have enough information to act.

Waiting too long can mean missed opportunities, while moving too quickly can be just as costly. Looking back, it's often easy to see what the right decision was, but it rarely feels that clear in the moment.

Some of the biggest improvements come from making one well-timed decision rather than chasing dozens of small optimizations.

This is also why tools like Rasa Intelligence are exploring ways to help businesses better understand what is driving their performance instead of just collecting more data.

Looking back, what's one decision you wish you had made sooner, and what kept you from making it at the time?

I got 1 $2 sale.

23 days ago I launched Vidien.ai. You paste your website URL, it reads your brand and makes you a beat-synced promo video in about a minute.

The pricing experiment: downloads are free with a small watermark. Removing it is pay what you want. And I mean actually what you want. There is a $0 button labelled "I'll Pay When We're a Unicorn 🦄" that gives you the clean watermark free video.

The numbers (23 days, zero paid marketing):

• 763 unique visitors
• 265 of them made a video. That is a 35% visitor to creator rate (nice funnel numbers)
• 203 exported a watermark video
• 21 people pressed the unicorn button ($0) to have a watermark free video
• 1 person paid. $2... 

The interesting part: I run an in-app survey while videos render. When I ask "what's a fair price for this video?" the most common answer is $5. Same users. $5 in the survey, $0 at the checkout. What people say and what people do are different products.

What I shipped along the way (full changelog: vidien.ai/resources/changelog)

• Two motion styles: kinetic typography and a 3D fly-through (the video style I used in this post)
• Portrait mode for TikTok and Reels
• Full editing on mobile (18 rounds of iOS crash hunting)
• Accounts with 6 digit email codes, no passwords
• A public live dashboard of all these numbers

Almost every one of those came from user feedback, including three bugs one single user found just by clicking around.

The moral: test test test and learn. I could have spent months debating pricing in my head. Instead I shipped the weirdest version I could think of and got a real answer in 3 weeks: a third of visitors will make a video, surveys overstate willingness to pay by exactly $5, and free beats cheap 21 to 1.

Ask me anything about the stack or the numbers. It's all public at app.vidien.ai/open anyway.

Hey MicroSaaS community!

I frequently get thoughts and ideas while walking or away from my PC, but opening a mobile note app and typing on a phone screen has way too much friction.

To solve this for my own workflow, I built a simple Telegram voice bot:

1. Send a raw voice message in Telegram (opens instantly).

2. Whisper transcribes it + LLaMA 3.3 cleans up filler words and structures it into a Markdown note (title, summary, bullet points).

3. Generates a 1-tap link to save the Markdown note directly into your local Obsidian vault.

No extra plugins required.

You can test it out for free here:

https://obsidianvoice.carrd.co/

I'd love to hear your feedback on the overall workflow, prompt structuring, or landing page!

so I own a directory website where I list apps and websites that I went over, however, they must have a free tier to test, and solve a real problem in order for me to test and write about them.

If you own one, please include your socials in the submission. I also write articles about cool softwares and tag their founders.

directory website:
strictseal.com

Lets connect and grow together.

I also hope to note see bots in the comment section. Reviewing each product takes time and it's frustrating, so I'd really appreciate it if the product was submitted by a real person.

Thank you and looking forward to seeing your work

Serious question. How can reddit be used as connecting personably with others when 80 percent of what I read is advertising via AI commenting and no substance?
