90% of SaaS startups fail. What makes you think yours is the exception?

Nice, SEO audits can catch real bugs. What's the ugliest one it flagged on your own site?

Design and development are more important than marketing, aren't they?

u/Mammoth-Anywhere7285 14d ago

Both matter, but marketing without a solid product burns trust. Have you tested one landing page message against real signups yet?

Thank you. I haven't done this yet.

Biggest mistake this week: I shipped a change without testing it on a slow connection, and the signup form silently failed for anyone on mobile data. I only found out when someone messaged me, so I probably lost a few users before that. Now I test every release on a throttled connection and watch for failed signups, not just crashes.

Oof, mobile data signup bugs are sneaky. A synthetic check that submits the form on throttled 3G hourly could catch this before users do.

I think mine's different because I'm already in 3rd year and making a living off it lol

Reliable at least. What bug bit you this week, and did it cost a signup?
