Yes, you’re right.
I’ll start low until I reach a good amount of users.

Thank you!

I guess is to prove a point. That people are willing to pay for your product, which means you actually “have” a business and as @levelsio said to “undercut” your competition, which at the beginning is just a way to start to attract companies.

You should have some basic "terms & privacy" policies.

You can start with free options in:

In case you need some 'complex' or 'delicate' stuff from your users, you can update those policies (paying a '1' time fee) and update it. Plus having your policies served on other servers is a good choice in case something go wrong from your side.

As @wojciechgabrys says "Go through the legal docs of your competitors/similar sites and come up with something similar." and you should be 'OK'.

Plus some services like 'termsfeed' can help you set up a privacy policy for the incoming GDPR on May 25.

A new account for each product, so you can always be flexible with the kind of 'content' you want to share with an specific audience (niche) and after reaching 80k+ impressions that usually comes with an active following, you will start to receive +99 notifications involving a lot of feedback, problems w ur service or recommendations. So now, multiply that for N products and you will regret using your own personal account.

Plus, you can manage many accounts with 1 phone using the Twitter App, and in case you want some automation there is Buffer or IFTTT that can help you automating tweets or sharing content.

Cons
You will req. to use a mobile phone number for verification purposes after the 3rd or 4th account.

Yeah, I kind of figured it would be the best option... I got into the mistake of posting a lot of non-related posts on my site account, which had a very specific topic, and now I have to track back a bit. But should be worth it in the long run...

I have a couple of dozen Twitter accounts and only have one mobile phone number. I think you can skip this phone number step during sign up process. It's not very obvious, but I think it's possible. You can also skip the annoying onboarding wizard (that makes you try and follow a bunch of people) by just changing the URL to the Twitter homepage. It doesn't force you to complete signup wizard as long as you completed the basic steps such as choosing a username and email address.

One drawback of not adding a phone number is that your account is more likely to get suspended. This can even happen immediately after signing up without having tweeted anything. In that case you can appeal the suspension and explain why you had to create a separate business account and can't add a phone number since it's already linked to your main, personal account. If that account is in good standing, then you can expect your new account to be reactivated within a day or so.

Unless you're going for VC money, no one is going to ask you if you build the app.

Just remember to ask your employees to make a properly and detailed comment for each commit they submit to master, so you can easy follow up what's going out in case a weird bug happens and all your costumers going rant on you.

Ask to follow standard guidelines based on the stack (Basic stuff for a professional developer but just in case)
www.w3schools.com/js/js_conve… (Javascript)
github.com/bbatsov/rails-styl… (Ruby on Rails)
etc

There is standards for design too in case you're building a web app or a mobile app.
developer.android.com/design/
getbootstrap.com/docs/3.3/css/

But you can learn to code a 'normal' (not crazy) product in a month, working at least 2-4hrs daily and save some money.

For eg. if your product requires an "upvote" func like 'reddit/hackernews' you can surf tutorials in 'X' language about how to do it.

You can start building 2 - 3 apps based on tutorials related to the product you want to make, and then start from scratch trying to apply what you learned.

You have a big supportive community here on WIP and you can always ask 'technical' questions on stack overflow.

Yeah, this app I want to make it a little bit crazy since envolves API, blockchain, and Stellars! :( But just asked a company and some freelancers for "how much".
