03 / ACQUISITION

Where do users come from?

Direct 76.3%, search 17.8% almost entirely brand keywords (brand keywords 94.1%), referrals pawchive.st 4.58%, rule34.xxx 3.28%, kemono.cr 2.48%, social from Reddit, YouTube and X; mostly existing users following along after a domain change.

Channel share, initial acquisition, and growth drivers are distinct; correlation does not imply proven causation.

04 / YOUR NEXT QUESTION

What remains to be verified?

The following are research questions, not established market opportunities.

  • What do target users actually pay for? Is there direct user feedback or paid interview evidence?
  • Are these historical prices still active today? What are the conversion, retention, and fulfillment costs?
  • Is the "Other" channel still viable? What resources do indie devs need to test it?
  • Whose needs are competitors failing to meet? Find specific evidence before deciding on your angle.
