Guyyysss, I think I’m officially exhausted from marketing 😭. Over the past few weeks, I’ve tried pretty much everything I could think of. Posted on LinkedIn. Posted on Instagram. Posted on TikTok.
Result? Lots of impressions. Almost no users.
Tried Reddit. Banned.
Tried Hacker News. Flagged.
At some point it starts feeling less like marketing and more like getting rejected by the entire internet 💀. The frustrating part is that I genuinely believe the product solves a real problem. It basically checks suspicious websites, emails, phone numbers, and crypto wallets and helps identify potential scam or risk signals before people trust them. The idea came from seeing how difficult it has become to tell what's legitimate online anymore.
A website can look professional.
An email can look convincing.
A wallet can seem completely normal.
And people have no easy way to check. So that's what I've been working on. Ironically, creating it felt easier than getting people to notice it 😭. For now, I've honestly stopped marketing for a bit. Not because I want to quit, Just because constantly posting, launching, getting ignored, getting flagged, getting banned, and repeating the cycle is mentally exhausting.
If you've been through this stage before, I'd genuinely love to hear how you got past it. And would love to hear some genuine advices from you guys!
honestly I feel you on Reddit, it feels like a chore to post there and you never get real engagement, only bots that scrape the content of your post and make up some BS comment. It feels really bad when you've built a website that looks really good
show me your product - i will go through this and let you know
how you can do this
I agree. I got so tired that I just stopped putting anymore efforts. It's like you can't get any promotion or any visibility without spending.
