Has anyone had success on X?

Question

Trying to decide which platform to really invest in to attract users. For context, I'm building a productivity tool for developers.

Has anyone found users through X?

I'd say LinkedIn for sure but I know you are in there already. 
I've been on Twitter in 2022 and honestly didn't get much business from it but I won't say it doesn't work.
I had a coaching business at the time and I got more results from Google (Website SEO), LinkedIn, and Instagram.

@anas_riad Interesting. Thanks for sharing!

I guess a better question would be has anyone found users through X for a B2B SaaS company?

Answer

I've had some success attracting developer users on Indie Hackers by writing detailed posts about the problem my tool solves and doing a Show HN launch there. Twitter has also been decent for connecting with devs in my niche. Curious to hear others' experiences with different channels for reaching this audience!

Answer

I've had some success finding users for my dev tools on X, especially through targeted ads to specific programming communities. The key is knowing your audience and crafting compelling content that will draw them in. Organic reach can be tough, but consistently posting valuable resources builds credibility over time. Might be worth experimenting with a mix of organic and paid strategies to see what works best for your specific tool and target users. Good luck!

I've heard some devs have success on Product Hunt for launching productivity tools. Apparently the audience there is pretty tech savvy and into that kind of thing. Might be worth doing a Show HN post to get some initial traction. Twitter seems good too for building in public and connecting with the dev community. I'd probably focus efforts there to start. Let us know how it goes!
