请问HN:我开发了一款工具,但在获取用户方面遇到困难——有什么建议吗?
嘿,HN,
几周前我推出了 https://jspad.dev。没有任何附加销售或付费墙。计划是将当前的功能(以及一些额外功能)永久免费,并为一些小众功能(如协作会话、创建/管理面试会话等)推出付费层。老实说,我现在甚至不想过多考虑付费层,因为目前的用户增长非常缓慢。
自推出以来,我做了一些轻度推广:
- 在Reddit、Twitter和开发者社区分享
- 在HN上分享
- 在博客文章中提及
- 在谷歌搜索控制台中添加
但是……用户增长的反应非常平淡。只有少量用户发现了它,几个人喜欢它,但它并没有真正传播开来。我希望更多的开发者能够了解并使用它——也许他们的使用方式最终能帮助我找到一种互利的盈利方式。
对于其他独立开发者或开发工具创作者:
你们是如何获得第一个1000个活跃用户的?
当你不收费且无法依赖传统付费渠道时,如何发展一些有用但小众的产品?
也欢迎对网站或想法本身提出任何反馈。
非常感谢!

Hey HN,<p>A few weeks ago I launched https://jspad.dev. There’s no upsell or paywall. The plan is to keep the current set of features (and few more) free forever and introduce paid tiers for niche features like collaborative sessions, creating/managing interview sessions etc. TBH I don't even want to think too much about paid tier at the moment, since the traction has been so low.<p>Since launch, I’ve done some light promotion:<p>Shared it on Reddit, Twitter, dev communities<p>Shared it on HN<p>Mentioned it in a blog posts<p>Added it on google search console<p>But… traction has been so underwhelming. A trickle of users find it, and a few love it, but it hasn’t really spread. I would love for more devs to actually know about and use it — maybe the way they use it eventually helps me find a way to monetize it a mutually useful way.<p>For other indie hackers or dev tool creators:
What worked for you to get your first 1,000 active users?
How do you grow something useful but niche when you're not charging for it and can’t rely on traditional paid channels?<p>Also open to any feedback on the site or idea itself.<p>Thanks a lot!
