I believe that founders who use their own products will always win. So, do you use your own product(s) on a daily basis?

In the comments, write your side project and how you use it on a regular basis.

    It’s now my main project, but very early on, I installed Wafris (a Web Application Firewall that lives in your framework) - https://wafris.org - on all of my other hobby and business sites.

    Every morning, I check the reports and then post the findings to all the usual social networks. It’s helped to crystallize the value that it’s providing. It’s helped to sell the practical real world value of the app (more than just a feature list) and it’s almost like each post is a mini case study in how it could help others.

    Yes, I built GoTrends (https://gotrends.app?c=reddit1122180gmj3 ). GoTrends help people verifed their idea by Google search data, because every keyword people searched in Google represent a real need of them. GoTrends display search volume and tendency of each keywords in the last 48 months.

    I use it:

    • Check keywords search volume and tendency which related to my ideas, if the keywords has large search volume or up tendency, that’s might be a good idea.
    • Find keywords with large search volume but less competition, build my website and content around it, this keywords bring lots of traffic.

    I use my publishing marketplace merrative.com for building niche sites. My marketplace basically helps brands and agencies hire writers who have subject matter expertise. I simply cater to agencies to keep the cash flow alive and building in-house niche publications to build assets using my own writers pool.

    Not really. I have a website builder and video on demand marketplace for professional wrestling promoters, but I don’t promote wrestling shows so have no use for my own products.
