Showcase your projects, verify your revenue, and join a community of makers building the future. The ultimate link-in-bio for indie hackers and solopreneurs.
I've been building in public for a while, and one thing I've noticed is how hard it is to build immediate trust when you're a solopreneur. We share revenue screenshots on X/Twitter, but let's be honest those can be inspected and edited in seconds.
I ve been hanging out in the indie hacker community for a while, and I noticed a problem. When we share our work, we usually drop a Twitter link or a generic Linktree. But as builders, our identity is our portfolio and our metrics.
I've been contributing to discussions every single day for over 3 years now, and sometimes it's really hard.
One day, I have a great time coming up with topics, and then there are those days when I just stare at the screen and can't type. But I always manage to find a way.
Most of us have a link in our Twitter/X bio that goes to a personal site or a Linktree. But for founders, that "prime real estate" is actually a massive distribution channel.
I m working on makers.page a link-in-bio designed specifically for the startup ecosystem.
Whenever I browse product launches, I somehow subconsciously judge not only the product itself and its quality, but also the quality that is reflected in the effort the makers put into preparing it.
It may sound insignificant, but in my case, these things also make a significant difference:
Icon GIF at the launch it enlivens the overall impression and is dynamic
Quality graphics and video
First, a properly filled-out comment
Photos in the makers' profiles (it's less trustworthy for me when there's only the letter "J" or something similar)
Whether any of my contacts or acquaintances on the platform reacted to the launch
We often see launch posts, milestones, and success stories. What we don t see as much are honest breakdowns of products that quietly stalled or failed.
I feel there s a lot of learning hidden there about timing, assumptions, and trade-offs.
Yesterday, I came across a job posting from a specific SF company that offered Yesterday I came across a job posting from a specific SF company that offered a salary of 250k 1M (including equity), but realistically, I don't think they have that money; they're just grinding to satisfy investors and succumb to too much hustle culture.
Requirement: be available on-site from 9 AM to 9 PM 6 days a week in the office (and I bet even Sunday would be dedicated to meeting some team members in "free time"). In addition, they were willing to hire those who would relocate to SF.
Yesterday was my 27th birthday. Instead of the usual dinner, I spent the morning in VIM (btw) shipping the waitlist for Squad In Sync.
The context: I was trying to plan my own birthday and NYE with my friends. Within 48 hours, the WhatsApp thread was 400+ messages deep. The flight info was buried, the restaurant link was lost, and half the group was in "decision paralysis" because they couldn't see the full plan.
I recently challenged myself to build and ship a tiny Product Hunt-related project in about 24 hours. No grand vision, no long roadmap. Just an idea I personally wanted to see exist, built fast and pushed live.
The launch day is officially over, and I m still pinching myself: We got #1 Product of the Day! This is a massive milestone for me. Lately, I ve had a pretty tough period with building products, but today reminded me that there s always hope you should never give up on shipping. This is my first time hitting the #1 spot, and it feels incredible.
