How we got eyeballs

In the past year our apps and blog have finally started getting some traction! It’s exciting, but let’s not pretend this has always been the case or that it happened overnight. Here is a list of things we’ve done over the past few years, that we think have been instrumental to our success. The items are in no particular order, and may be either missing the real secret sauce and/or containing things have haven’t helped at all.

• We’ve always been ourselves. We’ve never pretended we’re more than two chubby guys that speak our minds, build simple software and care about people.
• We give a damn. Steve and I have always tried to be kind and give to people. We’ve always tried to give of ourselves when someone has asked for help. We’ve always tried to be honest when someone asked us.
• Tried to make applications that make peoples lives easier.
• Blogged a lot. The first two years, we blogged almost every day. We’ve slacked off a bit this year, but we have always tried to write short, easy to read blog posts that are meaningful and talked about business or technology.
• Tweeted a lot. Always attempted to engage in real conversation. Although we’re sometimes offensive, we always speak our mind. Shared links and things we liked. Allan on Twitter and Steve on Twitter
• Contributed to open source by releasing LovdbyLess, our open source social network.
• Traveled to conferences to speak and attend. And actually talked to people, like real people do. We haven’t hidden behind our computers, we’ve shaken hands with people and tried to make friends.

There is no recipe for success, or if there is we don’t know it. We’ve just been working like mad men for 3 years and doing these thing everyday while seeing little or no result. Finally it’s beginning to pay off.
