I agree. In my case none of the projects was something paywalled and we're developed with sole intent to learn. Some we're data heavy which we're most of the work and I didn't had any experience before.

What I meant is the "aftercare" when product is publicized. Like promoting it in some way, maybe using a social media to promote it properly? No idea. This is another thing I know absolutely nothing about, so It would be wise to learn it. I usually just let them hang to be indexed by google and chatbots which drives some traffic, but it's basically just running app not a product.

What I meant is, that OP spend quite a lot of money on that so I was curious if he have any plan. :)
