The honest truth about Framer creators

Picking a small, low-competition niche? Good. What you do after that is where most of you fail.

Once your template hits the marketplace, you promote it in the wrong place. Twitter works for a few niches: Saas, AI, design. But if you built a yoga template, don't expect to post it on X and get rich. You need a real plan before you finish the template, not after.

Ask yourself:

  • Where will you promote it, and how?
  • Does this niche respond better to free or paid templates?
  • What are the actual pain points of the people in it?

Here's the harsh truth: a lot of you are bad at marketing. Just posting your work doesn't work anymore when a million other people are doing the same thing. You have to get creative and spend real time learning how to position and sell what you make.

The other mistake is chasing quantity over quality. Treat each template as a product, not a post. Build it, market it, improve it. Add upsells: guides, a mini course, custom components, setup services, maintenance. Track your buyers and follow up later to see how else you can help.

Sounds a lot? It is. And that's exactly why releasing 100 templates doesn't work, you can't do any of this properly at that scale.

Build your own website to host your products. Get listed on directories like framojo.com to extend your reach.

There's a lot of money to be made on the Framer marketplace. But you have to put the work into marketing, not just designing.

Hey guys, I'm building Framojo (a place for framer tools and resources) and would love to know which platform do you prefer and why? Also, do you think I should be focusing on the 2 platforms or continue with one of them and then include slowly stuff from Webflow as well.

in most cases there's the 'Schema markup' missing which is one or 2 code snippets.

Step1, ask Claude to give you the schema markup for your website.

Step2: Go to General settings, Custom code, Paste the snippet for all pages, Placement: Start of <head>.

Step3: Paste the second snipped but this time choose your cms
