Slopshredder - A lot to look at. Nothing to say.

AI-generated posters with the same look, too much information, and no clear message. Shred a few.

Added special Rank Tracking page to Zoekwoord to make it a bit easier for users. Still pretty basic.

Spent most of today improving workflows. Custom CLI tools, small automations. Less clicking, more building 🏗️.

Added Belgium search data (BE-nl) 🇧🇪 to Zoekwoord. First data is in the database 🙌.

Surprisingly handy feature that all tweets are auto translated to English (or whatever settings you have X on). Makes it a lot more accessible to more people 👏.

Still not used to writing in Dutch on this platform but I might try it out in time.

Today mostly doing freelance work. If there is any time left it will be to create a marketing site and examples for my new interactive video platform. Looking forward to launching it 🎬🚀

February 2026 wasn’t a good month. 🔎 Zoekwoord — €150 (-75%) 🔗 Linkjuice — €30 (-40%) Luckily there was enough freelance work to makenup for it. Focussing on marketing of these tools in March. #BuildingInPublic

5 years ago I already built an interactive video tool. Interactions as a layer on top of YouTube videos. Technically it worked, but it remained mainly an experiment.

Interest was limited at the time. In retrospect, I just did it wrong in terms of marketing. I didn't show enough what you could do with it in practice.

The idea has always stayed with me. Recently I have started again with this concept. This time built from scratch and with more focus on concrete applications.

Making great progress with the new tool I’m building. Got the basic functionality working, now moving on to integrating payments and getting a launching page up. #indiehacker

Recreating a tool from 5 years ago. Found the original todo lists. What once required weeks of work now takes hours. The pace of software development has shifted 💯.

Switched to React as that is long term the smarter choice for this project.

Asked Claude (Github Copilot) to optimize conversion rate and it actually gave some good suggestions 👏. Implementing those suggestions now for Zoekwoord.

Do have to mention it's absolutely *** at coding now I'm used to Codex. Fixing the errors myself as that is faster... 🙃

Had a long conversation today with a free Zoekwoord user. Questions about: - data sources - premium features - comparisons with international SEO tools that are way more expensive

After all that… They concluded the free plan was good enough. Good validation for the product. Less great for my time & revenue…
