After my story about the inception of my startup was featured on Hacker News front page (https://www.momenteo.com/from-freelancer-to-founder-episode-...), we were featured on Product Hunt less than 24 hours later.
We broke down the numbers so you can feel what kind of kick it gives to a newly launched product ;-)

I would be lying if I pretended that I know. In my case, it happened over time. When I think back, I can clearly see the trigger, but did I knew at that time it would change my path? Absolutely not. Would I change a single thing? No.

Laughed so hard. Joke is one of my friend (a girl I won't name!) answered to a UPS guy wearing only a towel (she quickly got out of shower). When she took that package, her towel fell. 9 months or so later, she got a baby boy. Imagine that! :P

In fact I was expecting a few of my friends asking the question to know if she was actually in Europe with me when she got pregnant. Gotcha!

Thanks for the kind words!
Wordpress is a good platform, it powers a lot of the websites out there. In fact, our blog and website uses WordPress!
The best way to get your first clients is to talk about your new freelancer career in your network. There is always someone you know who knows someone who needs you. Just speak out loud and you will be heard!

Exactly what happened for me. I may be considered a turtle in the startup race, but I'm very fine by it!

Yep, one: Do what you love. One day people will realize the value of what you do and everything will flow as you wanted.
A big trigger for my career change was when I read Rework from DHH. I realized that you can start small and build a product fit for a specific market - some users will outgrow your product and that's okay. As for me, I build a product I needed without really thinking if there was a product/market fit, it eventually happened.
