Nice. What strategies did you use for organic growth of your website?

#95Can we please make this a recurring question Wouldn't it be worth doing a trial period of manual posts first, to gauge the amount of interest?

Custom Woocommerce implementation on Wordpress. Custom plugins for automating things such as shipping labels, packing slips, etc. Hosted on DigitalOcean. No drop shipping. We spend about 20 to 30 minutes per week packing and shipping inventory from our garage.
How do you generate relevant traffic out of interest?

Hey I'm a 4.2k player and a developer. I like your app's interface more than dotapicker.com. I noticed both had same suggestions for a given set of heroes. Is the source of data for both of these apps same?
My guess is we've landed on similar algorithms to DotaPicker, it's usually the set of matches we're using that makes the difference so I'm surprised the suggestions were the same.

#99I've got a SaaS system that generates a small physical newsletter that I've been running for the past 3 years. Averaging consistent $600 / month profit w/ no marketing. I've always intended to grow it (and think $2k / mo profit would be easy to achieve), but haven't put in the marketing effort as I've been busy with other businesses. It takes about 1 day a month of work, but that could easily be outsourced. Open to s…

Thanks! They are different sources, I use OpenDota's open source software to gather matches and dump them into Google's BigQuery for processing using our own algorithms we've created. The algorithms are run against 15 to 30 million matches depending on how deep in the patch is. My guess is we've landed on similar algorithms to DotaPicker, it's usually the set of matches we're using that makes the difference so I'm su…
I ask because this always seems the biggest weakness of all the existing picking tools. A 1k player and a 5k player throwing the same lineup into a picking tool should ideally get dramatically different suggestions, both because of their own skill and the skill of their teammates.
