Comment on Ask HN: How did you validate your webapp product/market fit?

Comments

Like many say, validation is basically questioning. 1. Is it useful to you, use it at least 5 times a week? 2. Does anyone else need it? 3. Have you tried the top 10 Google result websites? Are they bad? How better is yours? 4. Try to pitch to your target users through forums not ads.

No, I did not stop my day job to start a new side project or company. The only time I quit my job was the very first time, I started the project. Took 2 years to close it with no big success. And I realized I should have done that without quitting my full time. Since then, I built 6 side projects, never tried to monetize. The latest one was started with an intention to make money, doing good since day 2. Concentrate on SEO if you believe the top 10 Google results of your focus keyword are doing bad. Once you get into top 2, thats all!!
