Today I hit 100 clicks from Google search for my SaaS.
still a small number, but seeing people actually find my product through SEO feels pretty damn good
Weird week !
A reddit post about my first paying customer hit #1 on r/SaaS with ~400 upvotes.
and I just crossed 250 followers.
Both from the same thing: posting the real, unpolished version of what's happening instead of the polished one.
I posted my first SaaS sale story on Reddit yesterday.
~ 70K views. 375 upvotes. 234 comments. #1 on r/SaaS.
Here's what actually happened to my traffic:
→ 250 visitors (0.3% click rate from Reddit)
→ 2 signups
→ 0 paying customers from it
Sounds disappointing right?
It's not. that post now lives on Reddit permanently.
Anyone who googles my product will find a r/SaaS post with 375 upvotes and 234 comments.
That's social proof I couldn't buy.
Reddit virality ≠ direct revenue
Reddit virality = credibility that compounds
Tell your story honestly.
People don't click. But they remember.
Dropping the post in the first comment 👇
@RealRandomTask Yeah, it was annoying at first 😂 I just started commenting and participating in communities before posting anything. The karma came pretty slowly
@CodeWTensai Reddit is honestly a mystery sometimes 😂 I think every subreddit has its own rules, and you have to spend some time there before posting anything promotional
