Earlier MVP

I launched my MVP 3 weeks ago here on Indie Hackers (click here to view), and got amazing feedback. I got caught up in few things and couldn't work on the project, so took a while to move to the next phase....

Feedback Received on MVP

• improving the homepage CTA and reduce text
• add a marketing label for communities (renamed it to "launch" tag)
• startups for the rest of us podcast
• added user base / members per resource
• write about the problem in detail (improved the blog post to give a better overview)
• use name other than "curated" (changed to indexinate)
• need to know what's going on in the indie space
• organize specific resources in a roadmap/guide kind of way example learningseo.io
• mail subscription based on category/query (for now, added a common newsletter)
• directory page like markerpad.co
• community guides for each resource

What is Indexinate?

The Problem

• It is becoming increasing difficult to search for high quality content using Google Search
• The major reason for this is that most results on the first page of Google are from sites which have a very good SEO, but that doesn't relate to the quality of their content.
• The goal of these websites are simple, to gain traction and/or earn money.
• More on this in the blog: Problem with Search Engines

Current Workaround

• Reddit has become the go-to alternative for high quality content on the internet.
• Generally, a lot of users add the keyword reddit in Google Search to get results from Reddit.
• The content on Reddit are from people and their experiences with no incentive to share any information, so the content is almost always genuine!

Limitations

• But Reddit isn't the only place out there.
• There are tons of communities out there on the internet with very high quality of content and resources.
• But a lot of these communities are specific to a domain/subject/niche, so hence is difficult to find on the internet

Solution: Indexinate

• Indexinate is a curation of all publicly available communities/forums/resources/newsletters/podcasts.
• The goal of Indexinate is to curate all these communities so that when a user wants to re-search about some topic in depth, they can use Google Search but filter the results from those particular community/forums.
• With the rise of AI generated content, it will get increasing difficult to find good quality data, and that is where communities with real people connecting together will be the place where the golden content will be.

Conclusion

• Please give me feedback regarding what you want to add/improve/remove from the project.
