Ask HN: Generating relevant traffic for a landing page

1 pointsby anewfoundervor 12 Jahren2 comments

I am new to the HN community.

I am entrepreneur developing a jamming platform to connect music players through jamming. As part of this process I have setup a landing page with an explainer video and a call to action to submit an email address to get notified when the app is ready.

I have started to collect signups but not as many as I hoped. I still think that the idea is valid and that the main issue is with a) tapping the right audience and b) run a marketing campaign to drive users to the page. Before I do these two things I will not be certain that the idea isnt validated yet.

My questions are: 1) Do most people run a PAID marketing campaign when trying to collect signups through a landing page?

2) what are good sources to publish the landing page other than the obvious FB groups and music forums? Any particular subreddits?

Thanks

Google growth hack, you'll get useful tips. Organic search is the new thing. And lastly, fake your growth, like reddit.
