Product advice worth stealing:

Launch when it's 'good enough', not when it's perfect.

Users tell you what perfect means anyway.

Quick SEO tip that works:

Before writing new content, search your target keyword in incognito.

Study the content format that's ranking, not just the topics.

Counter-intuitive product advice:

Your MVP should feel embarrassingly basic.

If you're not slightly uncomfortable showing it to people, you've probably built too much.

Usually works best when you see a real problem first.

Good sign: Finding people actively cobbling together messy solutions

Red flag: Having to convince people they have a problem

The best products solve existing pain, not theoretical needs.

To clarify, not difficult customers, but intensive learning conversations.

Those early deep-dive support calls taught us what to build next. Can't get those insights from quick transactions.

Startup tip most ignore:

Your first 10 customers should be a pain to support.

Don't just build exactly what users request. Understand the underlying problem they're trying to solve.

Building software people actually need is hard.

Talk to 10 potential customers before writing a single line of code.

Counter-intuitive SaaS advice:
Start with a stupid-expensive tier.

It forces you to define real value early, and you'll be shocked who actually buys it.

Document the mistakes.

Your 'here's how we messed up' posts will likely get better engagement than your wins.

Ship a killer landing page first. Let signups guide your feature priority.

Black Friday SEO tip:

Instead of competing for saturated 'deals' terms, add gift sections to your top-performing how-to content.

Lower competition, higher intent, keeps working after the holidays.

Underrated SEO move:

Study how Google rewrites your snippets.

That's literally their A/B testing data, for free.

Google often rewrites meta descriptions to better match search intent and what they think users want to see.
