Your revenue-producing side-projects are strangely inspiring. If you don't mind me asking, how do you market them?

Mostly, I don't.

In the beginning (for each) I found a few people asking on forums for software that solves the exact problem that these products solved, and then posted the software as a solution.

Since the first few weeks, I haven't done any marketing at all—everything comes in via search, or referral traffic.
