We launched Cronitor.io here on HN over 11 years ago and we’re thriving.
The first 6 years were part time, nights and weekends, while we both had kids and full time jobs. In 2020 we quit our jobs (and took a huge pay cut for a while) to go full time on it. Eleven years later I still love building dev tools.
If you have any product feedback please let me know: shane@cronitor.io
If you see this Ivan, Well done!

It feels like between most subreddits banning self promotion and LinkedIn being flooded by AI post and inboxes by AI cold calls, it should be harder to make yourself stand out to a stranger.
Do you have be a content creator to grow an audience, make it work and get your first clients?

The larger platforms are usually too saturated to be effective. In my experience, generally not a good return on $/time.

Other than that there are a few places that highlight product launches like product hunt, etc. to gain initial usage. Probably check for niche groups having the issue and reach out organically - no one likes spam.
This is just what I've gathered from others, I'm in the beginning phase of this myself :-)
