Leo @ewalf.com · 22/08/2026Summer is finally over ☀️ And just like that, Firsto’s Feature slots are filling up again. #buildinpublic #indiedev 0101
Leo @ewalf.com · 21/08/2026300 paying creators on Firsto. And one customer has already paid to launch 9 times. 45 creators have come back and paid again. It's still early, but seeing people come back is probably the best signal we could ask for. #indiedev #buildinpublic 580
Leo @ewalf.com · 01/08/2026I wanted to track how fast Google indexes newly launched product pages on firsto.co , so I added a simple Google Index Tracking dashboard in the admin panel. After 3 days of data: ✅ 24 pages tracked ✅ 23 indexed ✅ 96% success rate ⚡ Median index time: 50 min ⏱ Average: 7h 18m 110
Leo @ewalf.com · 25/06/2026No audience? No problem. Some makers launched on Firsto and now rank alongside — or even above — their own websites on Google. You don't need thousands of followers to get discovered. Build. Launch. Get found. 🚀 firsto.co #buildinpublic #indiedev 051

Leo @ewalf.com · 09/05/2026Most people think launch platforms are just a 24h traffic spike But the real signal is whether builders come back One Firsto user since July 2025: 1 Free launch, 2 Premium Launch, 3 Pro Launch 10 months. 6 launches. Still here. Retention > vanity metrics. What’s your North Star: hype or trust? 000

Reposted by LeoLeo @ewalf.com · 28/02/2026In February, one user purchased 5 Premium Launches on Firsto, all within a single month. No ads. No sponsorships. Just repeat purchases. For me, that’s the best testimonial. When founders come back, it means the platform works. #buildinpublic #indiedev 051
