i listened to creators

most make 5-10 videos a month

monthly subscriptions? felt like paying for what they don't use

they said: "we want AI credits only what we need"

so i built ai credit system..

pay per use
no monthly subscription
full control

creators win

thinking of offering a lifetime deal for my product ThumblifyAI

bring your own api, pay once, get unlimited generations forever

or maybe just a credit-based system?

trying to see what creators actually prefer

what would you pick?

don’t build features for ghosts

it’s not always about more features

talk to your users
get feedback
iterate often

marketing takes time
but real growth?
comes from real conversations...

spent the day optimizing the hero section 🎯

now it’s smoother. faster. cleaner.

what do you think? 💬

still stuck on payment gateway…

stripe isn’t available in my region and lemonsqueezy & paddle don’t work either

anyone using an alternative?

Small wins that only you can notice are what truly matters
Everyone celebrates your start then comes the silence
That quiet period of months/years when you're working alone
That's where real progress happens - quietly, consistently, behind the scenes
Progress isn't always loud

quick update on what I’ve been up to... 👀

over the past 3 weeks, I’ve been focused on refining the experience and building new features based on your amazing feedback 🙌

✅ new cart & checkout
✅ shipping options done
✅ order dashboard

full version launching very soon

how do you decide which feature to build first?

here's my go-to:
- does it fit your product goals?
- users asking for it?
- is it quick to build?
- test before going big
- think long-term

what’s your method?

just watched the viral video about Honey Scam😨

can’t believe they’re pulling off an affiliate scam by replacing affiliate links with their own in a sneaky way to take commissions...

stay safe online and double-check what you download and promote

Looking back at 2024, I'm proud that I built, launched, and iterated @bazaari.bsky.social

excited for what 2025 has in store ;)

i thought AI content wasn’t great for SEO, but after seeing @tmaker.io's amazing results, I realized I was wrong

AI blogging seems powerful

what do you think?

2 months of programmatic SEO

Results for @bazaari.bsky.social so far:
→ 81 clicks
→ 1.18K impressions
→ 6.9% CTR
→ Seller's products ranking as high as #1-5, alongside Amazon & AliExpress

@bazaari.bsky.social SEO is powerful - and I'm still making it even stronger

you'll probably see lower engagement during the holidays and that’s okay

holiday season = lower engagement 📉

because your potential customers are busy with travel, or time off

but they set New Year resolutions making it the perfect time to capture their attention

how do you pre-sell a product before building it?
→ build a small MVP first?
→ use a landing page to test interest?
→ sell the vision directly to potential users?

what’s worked for you?

I revisited the Shipping Details page of @bazaari.bsky.social and finally wrapped it up.

I hope I won’t have to jump back here again :)

What do you think of the Settings page?

185 followers and 15 away from 200… that’s just:
- 15 clicks
- 15 legends
- 15 people who can say 'I was there before 200'

not that I’m counting or anything… 👀

but be a part of history

hit follow and make my day ;)

who’s building a SaaS that’s not targeting indiehackers?

what’s your focus and how’s it going?

2 months ago, I launched the Bazaari beta

Today:
→ 150 sellers
→ 23K+ visits
→ still not making a dollar :)

I’m now working on the full version, making it even better for you to sell online with ease
