Build Log Week 27, 2025: Cancelling ad campaigns
As expected I did not have much time to build my personal projects this week. But I did monitor my ads and conversion rates for Puppet Generator for a few days. Even though it got more free user sign ups, there were still no paying users. So there was no way near being able to justify the cost of my ads which would become profitable if I got 2-3 paying users per day. So I canceled the campaigns. Perhaps the app could have been a success through organic viral posts, but I think my time is better spent on building projects I actually like and find useful than figuring out how to do this with a risk of it not working out anyway. Perhaps someone who has interest and belief in the project could give it a go later though.
Next week:
This week I have vacation so I have more time again for my projects
- I want to make some new music
- Make some progress on SeaIT
- Perhaps make a new web app I personally find useful
