Building PromoHub as a Solo Developer </h1> <p>I've been working on PromoHub for a while now, and the project has changed quite a lot from where it started.</p> <p>Originally, the idea was mainly focused on discovering and promoting Discord communities.</p> <p>Over time, I realized it could become something much broader.</p> <p>PromoHub is now being built as a discovery platform for communities, creators, websites, projects, businesses and more.</p> <h2> What I've been working on </h2> <ul> <li>Improving the overall UI/UX</li> <li>Making the platform faster</li> <li>Improving SEO and discoverability</li> <li>Building better profiles and content discovery</li> <li>Improving the desktop and mobile experience</li> <li>Fixing bugs and continuously improving the platform</li> </ul> <p>One of the interesting parts of building this as a solo developer is that I get to work on pretty much everything — development, design, product decisions, SEO, marketing and community management.</p> <p>There's still a lot I want to improve, but it's nice seeing the platform slowly turn into what I originally imagined.</p> <p>Here's what PromoHub looks like today.</p> <p><a
