展示HN:分析9年来达到每月500美元的HN副项目

2作者: haileyzhou3 个月前原帖
在分析了9年的HN侧项目帖子后,我发现了一些关于项目盈利的反直觉模式。 三个突出的发现: 1. B2B主导:73%的每月收入超过500美元的项目面向企业,而非消费者。 2. 速度比精致更重要:从启动到首次销售的平均时间为47天。大多数项目在推出时就开始收费,通常具备3-5个核心功能。 3. 定价聚集:87%的项目定价在20到49美元之间。这个价格既足够低以促进冲动购买,又足够高以保持可持续性。 我将这些数据整理成了一个包含近700个项目的数据库,涵盖技术栈、定价和时间线数据。我之所以建立这个数据库,是因为我在规划自己的侧项目,想要看到模式,而不仅仅是成功故事。 该数据集可在[https://haileyzhou.gumroad.com/l/pknktt](https://haileyzhou.gumroad.com/l/pknktt)(售价49美元)以HTML报告和原始CSV数据的形式获取。 数据来源说明:所有数据均来自2017-2025年的公开HN帖子。我负责了数据的清理、分类和交叉引用。 欢迎讨论方法论或研究结果。也想知道其他人看到的模式,或者这是否与您的经验相符?

After analyzing 9 years of HN side project posts, I found some counter-intuitive patterns about what makes projects profitable.<p>Three things that stood out:<p>1. B2B dominates: 73% of $500+&#x2F;month projects target businesses, not consumers<p>2. Speed matters more than polish: Average 47 days from launch to first sale. Most started charging with 3-5 core features.<p>3. Pricing cluster: 87% price between $20-49. Low enough for impulse purchase, high enough to be sustainable.<p>I compiled this into a dataset of nearly 700 projects with tech stack, pricing, and timeline data. Built it because I was planning my own side project and wanted to see patterns, not just success stories.<p>Available at [<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;haileyzhou.gumroad.com&#x2F;l&#x2F;pknktt" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;haileyzhou.gumroad.com&#x2F;l&#x2F;pknktt</a>] ($49) as html report and raw .csv data.<p>Data source note: All from public HN posts 2017-2025. I did the cleaning, categorization, and cross-referencing.<p>Happy to discuss methodology or findings. Curious what patterns others see or if this matches your experience?
