southflorida··on How Google Map Hackers Can Destroy a Business at Will
if google is going to take it upon themselves to list a business they should be held accountable and the information should be accurate. google listed the business without his consent and it was incorrect information. i hope he wins... google listing a business that is closed on weekends could have been detrimental in this case. the business owner doesnt need to change because technology has evolved beyond his understanding, google should have never listed the business to begin with. google = giant scraper site of misinformation.
southflorida··on Tell HN: My startup is making money and I don't know what to do
You could put your idea on kickstarter. It may help you bridge the gap until you can hire more help with your own resources. Or hire virtually to make sales in each of the target states and pay on a commission base for closed deals.

southflorida··on Ask HN:What are some SEO techniques for bootstrapped project
your standard H1, H2 tags. meta title for all pages 55 characters or less. meta descriptions 155 characters or less on all pages. of course original content that is "unique" for the niche, takes a different approach to the topic, not just original work. different media if possible for consumers to want to share, or come back for more. i would recommend you read groovehq.com/blog and ViperChill.com as well as Moz.com for tips to expand on the topics... solid advice fromm all... Good Luck

im no engineer but from a marketers stand point you may want to team up with someone that evangelizes your product and is willing to push it themselves... also if you are willing to pay a finders fee or commission on the sell there are a ton of marketers that have an existing list to sell to, whether it be webmasters, business owners or tech people in general. depending what it is you may be able to find some cheap platforms to run ads on, again, a marketer would point you in the right direction if you are willing to share the profits, even if it is a single digit percent. good luck!
