    I've written an article about my journey with my first SaaS, LINQ Me Up (linqmeup.com). The article can be found here: https://eekayonline.medium.com/lessons-learned-from-building-my-micro-saas-linq-me-up-edbb80b26ec6 Besides the technical and product development stuff that I mention in my article, I found (and still find) it most daunting to try and find my user base (.NET Developers working with LINQ or learning LINQ) in western countries. Somehow, a lot of my almost 3000 registered (and verified) users seem to be located in lower-income countries like Vietnam, India, Iran, etc. Those users don't seem to be willing to (or can't) pay the small fee for a monthly subscription. I assume that a lot of project (converting, upgrading or refactoring existing solutions) that are typically outsources to those countries make a lot of people prospects for my product. Whereas I found that 90% of my subscribing users are from higher income countries (USA, Canada, Europe, ..). As a focused/niche service for .NET developers, how can I get more traction and/or feedback from prospects in western countries? Just as described in my article, I've written useful content, interacted with people online, used my own preferences as a .NET developer myself, and tried reaching prospects on communities and forums. What would be an action that could make my fully functioning product go next-level to the next 50 to 100 paying users? Any input, experiences or advice is appreciated. Code Hard, Ship Harder 🔥
