Any practical tips on building a community?
My name is Bertha, I hail from Johannesburg in South Africa. I initially started my career as an Engineer, I had been doing it for over 15years when I decided to completely switch careers and start programming and coding. I am completely self-taught from online courses, programs, and on-the-job training. With that said, the dev house I founded has developed pretty amazing software over the years (in my mind). One of our latest products is Skhokho - https://skhokho.io/ Our Ship, upcoming page can be found here - https://www.producthunt.com/upco... have been learning a lot from this community, I read a lot of threads - trying to figure out how to get the most out of Product Hunt and prepare for a good enough product launch in the next couple of weeks. One of the things that comes out a lot in the discussions is - Building a Community. You hear it all the time - build your community, mailing list, and following. I would like to ask the guys who have been doing it for a long time or guys who have managed to build successful communities - how? How do you start from scratch Which platforms have worked best How do you keep your community engaged What daily, weekly practical steps do you take to actively build your community What worked, what did not work
What's the weirdest domain name you bought?
Sometimes you get a shower thought and the next thing you do is ending up owning a domain for it. Drop the one you own that is weirdly funny :)
