#42How did you build 20+ products? I'm trying to build one but cant get over the paralysis. Any tips?
very simple.
as you see in this post, 3 products used to grow the main products are also my products.
So basically I build products to solve my own pains and problems.
Every day I get new problems, I solve them manually first, then I turn this solution into a product, use it for myself, iterate, once Im happy I let other founders try it and that's how the new product is being born

#43So this is just an ad for your products? Unicorn platform, listingbott, seobotai, and now index rusher.
this is "Show HN".
So showing my product is the goal of this label.
Regarding the rest of my products used in the process of growing Index Rusher, what's wrong with it?
Should I use Webflow instead of the unicorn platform for my website?
Should I hide in the step-by-step story the fact that I used Unicorn?
I'm not really getting why some readers focus on this.
If the key point of the story is to describe every step.

#44What’s “Mars Verse”? (Referenced in the footer of your website)
it's the Holding Org that unites all 20+ tools under one umbrella, both tehcnically (all these tools are built using marsx.dev) and legally (all these tools are owned my marsx (the company i own)

#45This post is (barely disguised) spam. You own three of the tools listed in the post without disclosing that fact.
the reason I didn't add the "disclosure" is that it's "Show HN". My guess was that adding this lable means "I'm showing my tool". Anyway, I added the comment. not sure if there is any effect on the overall point of the post and its value.
It's not just the lack of disclosure. You're claiming (for example) you spent $499 on a listing tool - but you actually own that tool, so you presumably spent nothing. You've fabricated a good portion of your post.

#46Earlier quoted context omitted.
The generated HTML on HN when you inspect the source is like so: https://listingbott.com It is a nofollow link so not sure how much SEO juice you'd get out of it, but if I google Index Rusher right now, I get this HN post as the second link, where the first is the product's website itself.
really? How does it get indexed by google so fast? posted an hour ago. pretty cool

I said the "project economy". I didn't say: "I spent".
In the end, I calculated the profit as if I didn't use my own tools, because that's what the reader of the case study wants to see.
The point of the whole post is to take one real case study. If you follow my steps, you have to pay for tools, so for the reader it's not important at all if I personally paid or not.
You don't get the point of the post at all. It's a case study on how I brought an idea to implementation and grew it to 7k revenue. What's the point of bringing up all those details? I didn't "fabricate" this case. This is a real case.
If I used other tools that aren't mine(i used godaddy and hosting..) would there be even the slightest difference for the key point of the article? If I start the article but saying: "I used my own tools...." would it make any difference to the main point of the article? for the case study?
