Ask HN: How you promote your web apps?
Hello HNers,
I do not have any profile on any social media sites, meaning no followers. I am working on a web app. How can I promote my web app?

Other reasonable suggestions include: - Post on producthunt - Post on reddit - Google Ads - Facebook page - Cold-emails - Word of mouth - Business cards - Scour the internet for forums related to your web apps
The best success I've had has come from winning the HN lottery, I got on the front page. Otherwise paying people was 2nd. I don't have a 3rd option that has worked well enough yet.
It is becoming increasingly difficult to find a channel, most subreddits consider it spam, producthunt is cliquish, facebook and google cost money, and google search does not pick up unpopular stuff since years ago.
I wonder if we should revive the concept of webrings. Anyone has any ideas ?
There might be room for small innovations but without network, like OP, I doubt it will work.
