Show HN: What popular startup sites looked like when they launched
3 comments
There is $99 fee for listing your website. Is that part of the business model at all?
nice work. the coinbase one points to robinhood though but otherwise hope this project grows
Thanks so much! Just fixed that.
I’m super excited to share my weekend project here and I really hope you find it inspirational and useful.
I've spent most of Bank Holiday weekend here in the UK (Memorial day weekend for those in the US) going through Wayback machine and Web archive to create a timeline of how popular startup websites have evolved over time since their launch.
As the (now) famous quote from Reid Hoffman goes: "If you are not embarrassed by the first version of your product, you have launched too late."
Hope this helps inspire more founders to just get out their and start building.
I'm going to continue to add more startups weekly to the database. Please feel free to share any suggestions or sites that should be included. P.s You can even submit your own site to be featured :)
This is the first version of the project and I’m aiming to add new features in the coming weeks (maybe an e-book?), and also regularly update the database so any kind of feedback will be greatly appreciated!
Built with no-code using Webflow.
