Two sales in 24 hours – Did I make something cool?

1 points by coursecrumbs ↗ HN
Hey HN, I built ListYour.app to help founders submit and promote their startups more easily. Marketing on a budget is tough. I used to manually submit projects to directories and communities, but it was time-consuming and hard to track. So I built a tool that: Finds new places to submit daily (AI-powered) Generates submission materials automatically Helps track and organize marketing efforts Launched a couple of days ago and already got two sales in the first 24 hours. Curious—do you think this is useful? What would you improve? https://listyour.app

There are dozens upon dozens of these. I'm regularly cold emailed about them.

You don't make it clear enough on the site whether it's automatically submitting to directories (very useful; if I could pay 30 USD to have this done it'd be worth it) or just providing a chatgpt wrapper for slop marketing copy (0 utility for me; I would never publish something LLM-generated).

I've also found that the only directory anyone ever looks at is product hunt.

I have traffic from other directories as well. It is not big but something. Also it is not only traffic but also about backlinks and SEO.
