Ask HN: How did you acquire your first 100 users?
1. I scoured the reviews of similar apps and listed the main feature requests that were being stonewalled and implemented them.2. I then set up keyword alerts for Reddit and Twitter and when somebody mentioned [similar app] I popped in and suggested they try Lanes which, btw, has feature [similar app] has not implemented.3. I got lucky^. Photos of Lanes began appearing on Tumblr blogs (the #studyblr community) and readers began asking 'what's that website on your laptop'. Queue, lotsa signups.4. The next 100: I listened to the first 100, intently.^Of course that stroke of luck would never had transpired had step 1 not helped me figure out how to add value.The app is https://lanes.io
