Today... D-Day at last.
Since the summer I've tried everything to get noctok known. A post every week here, on the noctok blog, then on social media, app directories, SEO, and other discussions on forums. I knocked on every door I could reach.
The reality check is simple: without a serious marketing budget, getting an app known is hard. Making people want to come is even harder.
There's another option I'm not ruling out: my project born from a very personal wish might only appeal to me. That happens too.
In my last post I wondered whether other people had this need. After knocking on all those doors, it's noctok's turn to open its own. Now let's see who knocks (Knock Knock).
Opening empty, you have to accept that a search will sometimes come up empty. Don't panic, it's only the beginning. Pick your topics (#tags), propose the ones you're missing, vote for the others. Every noctoker who joins makes the app more alive for the next one.
Did you preregister? Create your account with the same email during this first week and the noctok² plan is yours until the end of the year. Promise kept.
I'll be online all evening with my tags on. If you Knock Knock, there'll be at least someone to open up.
App launched, doubt owned, the answer is on its way...
