Now the real work begins...
Jasin went live on Product Hunt ~2 weeks ago. For a solo endeavor, I was really pleased with the outcomes.
On launch day, Jasin saw:
Jasin also received some incredible feedback ↓
"Jasin eliminates plugin bloat and iframe headaches, giving me confidence that every link pulls its weight. Hats off to Matt for turning affiliate embeds from a chore into a craft. This is the tool every content pro has been waiting for. 🙌"
"Nice launch! Turning Amazon links into clean product cards is such a simple but needed fix."
"That one code snippet changed my whole product layout. So clean, and it fits anywhere."
Jasin's been tracking well and seeing more people show up and test out the service. But launching as just the tip of the iceberg—now the real work begins.
Here's what's next in the near-ish future:
