Very hard to implement that as a single person company.
How so? Have a drop down to select currency, collect in that currency.
On Stripe, I need to create all possible currencies then ?

#54lol when did Wordpress become the “Ghost alternative”? I thought it was the other way around?
I had the same reaction reading this atrocious title

#56Given the amount of customer service per user, feature support, technical support and dev-ops that will be required to run this, I doubt there is any way this business could be sustainable at $29/year/user. Not to mention how you’d actually need to grow via marketing. If I were you I would stop on this idea immediately and come up with somewhere where the average user would expect to pay $50-$1000 per month for the s…
Carrd is doing fine at $19/year pricing. I am trying to play the same game here.

The fact that any business is sustainable at this price point is not a relevant point, it might have been a bad choice for them too. What you are offering is also a lot more complicated.
Not to mention it’s in the vertical of blogging which has been around for 20 years, in which your offering is very similar to every other alternative, and there are many well known free alternatives.
If you have the technical skill to make a service this complicated, make something that people value more than $2 a month, and make something that hasn’t been made 100 times before. Execution is more important than idea only if the idea isn’t terrible.

Nostash cover a tiny market of note taking. I wanted a space over the internet where I could write documents and have them available to anybody to read. You can create documents, make them public, make them back private and just share the URL. The stack is AWS L…
> Into a serverless stack. But why? Cost?
Yes exactly.
It serves very very few request daily, make no sense to have a full fledged server running it
