I spent last week hacking at MIT Reality Hack #buildinpublic

Last month saw a dip in Google traffic, but then this happened over just four days #buildinpublic

Last month was a record high for XR Jobs Board – 29.6k page views – 8.43k unique visitors – Over 1,400 email subscribers – 71% newsletter open rate progress in ~3 months #buildinpublic

Recent progress on the SEO update #buildinpublic

2024 has been my explorer phase where I got to try different things and see what I like and don’t I’ve learned that you can truly build anything you want. It's wild 🌟 Some of my personal highlights: #buildinpublic

if you're in NYC I'm organising an #XR Design meet-up in the spirit of the upcoming MIT Reality Hack #buildinpublic lu.ma/c7r9eb6y

1000 email subscribers > 100,000 followers #buildinpublic

Just a few days into 2025, and I’ve already made my first sale! the best part? It happened completely organically no prior connection, no outreach—they just found the site, clicked "buy," and made my week Still blows my mind every time #buildinpublic

I’m heading back to MIT this Jan to attend Reality Hack Last year was my first time, and it was one of the best experiences ever I met so many fantastic people and made loads of great friends Can’t wait ◜✧˖°･:*:･。.

stonks nvidia ftw

slowly getting back to the rhythm I have so many to-dos and ideas 🚀 #buildinpublic

In 4 weeks I went from 0 to over 800 cards, 2 commander decks and to scouting and obsessing over singles, combos and other Magic shenanigans it’s been a while since I had so much fun! today I’m going to LGS to play with strangers for the first time super excited, wish me luck 💖

happy new year, my #buildinpublic friends go get it

every day, I’m reminded that success doesn’t happen overnight but it’s the result of consistent effort building trust and connecting with people takes time more often than not true success stems from perseverance and the willingness to keep trying, learning, and experimenting #buildinpublic

Over 2.2k views and 100+ new users in the last 24 hours without any active effort on my part it’s awesome to see XR Jobs Board gaining organic traction and being shared naturally #buildinpublic

having the best time off enjoying delicious food, quality time with family, and diving into Magic a nice reminder that life isn’t all about work how about you? #buildinpublic

finally have time off from my full-time job I'm also going to step back from following news and actively participating in social media to focus on quiet learning, relaxing, and journaling I feel like I need a bit of a break from the race #buildinpublic

500 🔥 #buildinpublic

LinkedIn has been one of my main traffic sources, but recently my posts haven’t been performing as well as they used to So today, I tried something different: A meme instead of a polished, on-brand design Within hours, it’s already performing better—no changes to the content #buildinpublic

best people 💖 XR Holiday Party by AWE, NYVR, VRARA and XR Guild #buildinpublic

first things first

back in the city

back on the road, but bunch of new jobs are up #buildinpublic

XR Jobs Board just hit its highest traffic since going live 2 months ago 🔥 What excites me most is no matter when I check the analytics, there’s always someone exploring the site I add new jobs every day This builds a habit for people to keep coming back to see what’s new #buildinpublic

Google announced Android XR, a new OS for headsets and smart glasses, built with Gemini AI It’s the best sign that AR/VR isn’t just a trend, but a technology that soon will become part of our everyday I'd love to see more #buildinpublic projects in that space www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pn5uG1ys-pE

better feeling than a salary from 9-5 #buildinpublic

I'm hitting next milestones faster and faster 🚀 #buildinpublic

I'm learning SEO, testing and trying to optimise a lot of small things Here's what I've done so far: - Relevant keywords in the name - Indexed 100s of pages (job board advantage) - Dynamic sitemap.xml - Server-side rendering for better indexing and this is my next to do bsky.app/profile/krys...

I'm hitting next milestones faster and faster 🚀 #buildinpublic

it was a good week (´｡• ᵕ •｡`) #buildinpublic

I switched to Bluesky to avoid the constant political noise on X, but it feels the same—just from the other side Isn’t the Discovery feed supposed to reflect my likes and interactions? So why is it flooded with politics? Starting to feel like the same kind of echo chamber @bsky.app

SEO to do for XR Jobs Board – Add canonical tags to point to the main page – Redirect outdated jobs to the homepage or relevant category – Optimize meta titles/descriptions with additional keywords – Create category pages – Add category links to the footer #buildinpublic

TAM = (No. of Customers) × (Revenue per Customer/year) e.g. Bluesky analytics for Indie Hackers at $19/m ($228/y) To reach $1M, you need ~4,400 customers. TAM: 4,400 x 228 = $1,000,320 Ask yourself: 1. Can I reach that many customers? 2. Will they pay that much? #buildinpublic
