SaaSHub has been growing in all directions for the last several months. One of these directions is the number of new products submitted to the marketplace: 150,034 as of writing now. My previous similar report was 100k products listed as of Dec 2019. That's about 83 new products listed on average every day (based on a quick and imprecise calculation).
While that number might not be stunning for some investors, I'm proud of it, given that it's a one-man-army show. What is more, I've been told (by an investor) that SaaSHub is starting to make some of the leaders in the space (like Capterra & G2) a bit uneasy at night.
How did I achieve this? Small but consistent daily improvements six days a week.
One of my goals is to have all software products listed on SaaSHub and having them identify their competitors. That's one of the most objective ways to prepare the lists with alternatives after that, and that's what brings value to people browsing the website.
If you were running a website like SaaSHub, what would you work on next to make the most money out of it? (I'm making some $ - in the range of 4 digits/monthly; however, I'm sure it could easily go up to 5 digits with a slight push).
I suspect you have been misinformed. Happy to talk privately about business models.
Three pieces of advice:
1. Never describe yourself as "a one-man-army show." Your customers, the ones paying you, do not care at all. To the extent they do care it will scare the crap out of them.
2. Don't focus on making your competitors uneasy, focus on providing value to your customers (the companies who are paying you).
3. Don't focus on the number of products you have collected under you tent. Focus on the number of new customers who are happy with the tools they found after browsing your site.
