General Forums on Product Hunt

My pricing strategy was to copy one of my competitors and now I can’t change that.

My pricing is $19/month since there was a competitor who priced their service at $24 per month, and I wanted to make sure that mine would come across as cheaper and more friendly. I didn’t even use a spreadsheet for that. No survey was conducted.In eight months of running my project, support eats up half an hour of my time every day and the hosting bills doubled twice. My $19 barely covers the cost of maintaining the service, and any attempt to raise the price will feel very punitive to the users who trusted me first.Is anybody else in the same situation? How do you plan to increase the price?

How much are you losing in platform fees selling digital products?

I got frustrated watching 10% disappear on every digital sale I made. So I built my own platform.

Launching PayLink on Product Hunt this Tuesday the simplest way to sell digital products with just a 3% fee and no monthly costs.

Curious from this community what's the biggest frustration you have with platforms like Gumroad, Etsy or Teachable? What would make you switch?

Would love to hear from anyone selling digital products.

(what country is that?) 2. Do you watch movies? if so, what platform do you stream movies on? 3. How do you perceive streaming movies ONLINE without cellular data? Is it what you wait and are in desperate need for? Thanks, I hope to receive your kind feedback and answers
