It's amazing and funny how, when you're building your own startup, and these awesome products pop up at the top on product hunt that can help you accomplish multitude of tasks with so efficiency. Kudos!

Thanks Anant! Good luck with your startup :)
Terrific idea! Love the logo and the design work too! Good luck guys!
Maker
Thank you Leo 😊🔥
Congrats :) Have been using it for a few months now and can say that it's definitely helped us drive more folks to our blog. Am curious to know - is the team planning on building in a feature to eliminate duplicate links made from the same content? (ie. If I plug in XYZ Fortune article once, I will always get the same Start a Fire link instead of a new one each time.)
Maker
Hi Ada! Thanks for your kind words :) If I understood correctly, you would like to prevent a situation where when someone sees page "XYZ" and in the promoted content he gets the same link, right? It's on our to do list and I hope we'll fix it in the near future. Let me know if have more suggestions!
Thanks & congrats! I mean, if I create a Start a FIRE link for page.com/exampleabc, then if I ever try to create another link for page.com/exampleabc I should get the same stfi.re link? Instead of creating duplicate stfi.re links leading to the same content. Does that make sense?
Maker
Thanks Ada :) Ah, I get it. Good point, thanks!
Super interesting concept and crazy easy to setup, but with one big flaw... by using the shortener it changes the URL and wipes all social shares from the content being shared. This means there's no social proof and that the social shares don't stack on the original content. Not a "no go" but certainly something to take not of when sharing with the tool. Still gets an upvote.
Maker
Hi , since social shares "counters" follow redirects and canonical urls which start A FIRE complies with, social shares will get stack and accumulated as expected :)
Ahhh, killer! I'll play with it more :)
This tool is definitely helpful! Thank you!
Maker
Thanks!
I love this product! Simple and well executed! Happy to see that is opened to everyone, congrats guys!
Maker
Thank you Simone! :)
Start a fire is a fantastic tool. It's really simple yet powerful!
Maker
Really appreciate your positive feedback Eduardo! Thanks for all the support 😊
Oh and I still would love that white-label solution so we can brand the badge.
Awesome! Hope you guys get to no 1! I love it!
Maker
Thanks Deborah! We definitely hope so too 😊
I use it since the soft launch I think, will correct me if I'm wrong. Love that it's integrated with buffer, love that my face appears and people have no idea how. The thing is, I'm not 100% sure of when it works and when it doesn't. I mean maybe I'm confusing something, but it doesn't happen for 100% of my shares? Only specific sites?
Maker
Hey , Indeed you were with us from the beginning :) Once you integrate start A FIRE with a service like Buffer, Hubspot etc. it will work on every share you make for your *external* content. It will not be applied to your own domain alexw.me but to content you share from other sources.
