Startup Name Check was my first side project and official start into the Indie Maker world. It's been also my begin of learning how to market a project. While it wasn't a big financial success, it still turned into a helpful and beloved tool for many. By now over 300,000 checks have been run on Startup Name Check.
Below you will find occasional updates on the building. More regular updates can be found in the Startup Name Check Twitter thread. Startup Name Check has it's own blog about naming and starting side-projects.
It doesn't need to be a commercial project every time.
Different challenges came up with completely re-writing and re-launching startup name check. Read this detailed report including fears and mistakes.
Launching a new project is always exciting. Here a summary of my first week running startup name check.
