Sell, buy, show off your side projects - SideProjectors | Marketplace to buy and sell side projects.
SideProjectors is an online marketplace launched in 2014 where makers list web-based “side projects” (pre-revenue or revenue-generating websites, SaaS tools, mobile apps, Chrome extensions, etc.) for sale or for partnership. Core features include searchable project listings with traffic & revenue screenshots, direct messaging between buyer & seller, ‘watch’ lists, and optional paid upgrades that push a listing to the home page or newsletter. Listing a project is free; the site monetises through one-off fees for “featured”, “urgent”, or newsletter placements and does **not** currently charge a success commission. Typical ticket sizes range from a few hundred to low-five-figure USD. The audience is indie hackers, solo developers, and micro-acquirers looking for small, ready-to-ship products rather than full-scale companies. Because traffic is relatively small and global (≈60–80 K monthly visits per SimilarWeb, Jan–Apr 2024), there is no independently verified ‘best day’ to post; anecdotal IndieHackers threads suggest that Mon–Wed morning UTC garners the most eyeballs, but evidence is weak. Listings that perform best provide transparent metrics (GA screenshots, MRR, tech stack), realistic pricing, and clear transfer terms; sparse or over-priced listings attract little interest. Recommended practices: include proof of traffic/revenue, reply to messages quickly, and set a buy-it-now price. Things to avoid: misrepresented numbers (flagged by community), broken demos, and copying text from other marketplaces. No reliable data on algorithmic boosts beyond paid features.

KillerStartups
KillerStartups.com is an online publication that reviews and highlights newly launched internet, mobile and tech startups. Launched in 2007 and acquired by Startups.co in 2014 (Crunchbase), it serves founders, product builders, early-stage investors and tech enthusiasts who scan for fresh startup ideas and tools.
Main features
• Daily written profiles of early-stage startups, apps and digital services.
• Free self-service submission form; paid “Priority Review” option (~US$99-$149) that guarantees faster coverage (pricing pages & user reports, 2023).
• Community voting and comment sections that let readers endorse promising projects.
• Newsletter and social channels that syndicate top stories.
Business model
• Advertising / sponsorship inventory around editorial content.
• One-off fees for expedited or featured startup submissions.
• Cross-promotion of other Startups.co products (Fundable, Launchrock, Clarity) acting as lead-gen.
Content that performs well
• Concise, benefit-focused startup pitches (problem → solution → market) accompanied by visuals or demo videos.
• Product-hunt-style launches in trending B2B SaaS, AI, creator-economy and remote-work niches (based on most-shared posts 2022-23 via BuzzSumo).
Favorable posting times
• Highest traffic days are Tue–Thu; peak engagement between 9 a.m.–1 p.m. ET (SimilarWeb hourly visitation patterns for comparable startup news sites; KillerStartups shows similar U.S.–centric curve). Not officially published, so treat as guideline.
Best practices (do)
✓ Submit a short, jargon-free description plus screenshots and a clear CTA.
✓ Highlight traction, unique tech or market gap to capture editors’ interest.
✓ Engage in comments and share the post on your own channels to amplify reach.
Pitfalls (avoid)
✗ Overly promotional language without explaining value proposition.
✗ Submitting unfinished products or ideas without live demo—most are rejected.
✗ Duplicate pitches or follow-ups that clutter editors’ inboxes; patience is advised unless paying for priority.
Other relevant details
• Average visit duration ~1:30 min, 65-70 % of traffic from North America & Western Europe (SimilarWeb, Oct 2023).
• Domain authority (Ahrefs DR 79) means backlinks from a feature can help SEO.
• Part of Startups.co network, so exposure there can cascade across their portfolio platforms.

Discover new apps and startups in 10 words or less
10words.io is a lightweight product-discovery site that showcases newly launched startups using a single, exactly-ten-word description plus a link and screenshot. Makers can submit their product (free submission; optional paid "featured" or newsletter sponsorship slots). Visitors can browse, up-vote, and subscribe to a daily/weekly email that delivers the latest listings. The service targets early adopters, indie-hackers, investors, and founders who want a quick overview of what is new without the noise of longer reviews. Recommended practice for makers: craft a clear 10-word tagline, include a high-quality hero image, and submit as soon as the product is live; avoid generic buzzwords or going over the ten-word limit, as submissions are edited or rejected. No reliable public data found on optimal posting day/time or detailed engagement metrics. Revenue appears to come mainly from paid feature placements and sponsorship of the newsletter. Overall, the platform is a niche, low-friction alternative to broader launch sites like Product Hunt or Betalist.
