Not 100% sure if a clothing brand belongs in this subreddit 😅

But honestly, most of the people I’m building for are developers, founders, builders, designers, and generally tech-aware people… so I figured I’d post this here anyway.

I’ve been working on a small brand called CodeCulture — basically clothing inspired by developer culture, startup life, internet humor, coding references, late-night building sessions, terminal aesthetics, AI culture, etc.

The idea started because most “programmer merch” felt either:
- super cringe,
- overly gamer-focused,
- or looked like something from 2012 Stack Overflow 😭

I wanted to make designs that actually feel wearable outside of a hackathon.

Right now I’m experimenting with minimalist dev-themed pieces, startup/AI references, and designs that people in tech would recognize without screaming “i test in PROD”.

Would genuinely love feedback from people here:
- What kind of designs would you actually wear?
- Any coding jokes/references/aesthetics you think are underused?
- What do you wish existed in a store like this?
- Clean/minimal or more bold/chaotic?
- AI/startup culture references, cringe or good idea?

Also curious if anyone here has seen tech-focused apparel brands done well.

Would love ideas/suggestions before I expand the collection

I published an app three weeks ago, and I built it without checking whether the keywords for the app have enough popularity in the App Store. I’ve just completed the initial ASO, using keywords that make sense for the app, but most of the keywords that actually fit the app have a popularity of five in Astro app.

How can you make this work if the popularity isn’t there?

Hey r/SEO 👋

context: I have minimal knowledge about SEO. I just watch SEO videos about using Claude to automate SEO because I need be less dependent on Meta ads thats why I'm trying this.

I built a simple SEO blog generator pipeline for my online store and I'm trying to figure out backlinking + whether my analytics setup is enough. Would love some input from people who've been in this space longer.

What I built:
I created an automated blog pipeline using Claude (AI) + the DataForSEO API and GCS API. The flow is:

1. Pull keyword data via DataForSEO API and check GCS
2. Filter for keywords with low difficulty + decent search volume
3. Feed those keywords into Claude to generate blog posts targeting those terms
4. Publish to my store (Shopify)

It's only been running for 2 weeks so I don't have meaningful data yet, but the foundation feels solid.

What I'm trying to figure out:

1. Backlinking - is it even possible to automate or semi-automate this?
   I know backlinks are important for authority, but my current workflow is fully content-focused. I'm generating blog posts based on keyword difficulty/volume, but I have no backlink strategy at all. Is there a realistic way to build backlinks without doing manual outreach? Or is manual outreach just unavoidable at some point?

2. Is GA4 enough to monitor blog performance?
   Right now I'm only using Google Analytics 4 to track blog traffic and whether it contributes to purchases. Is GA4 sufficient for this, or should I be looking at something like Google Search Console alongside it? Specifically I want to know:
   - Are my blog posts actually ranking and generating organic clicks?
   - Are those readers converting into buyers?

Any advice appreciated - especially from people running content-driven SEO for e-commerce. 🙏

i started a small project called codeculture last year. the idea was simple. make developer focused shirts that people would actually want to wear, not the usual company swag

what i underestimated was distribution and marketing. i don’t come from that background and i’ve burned more money than i’m comfortable admitting trying to figure it out

lately i’ve been rethinking the approach. instead of trying to build a consumer brand from scratch, it might make more sense to work directly with teams that already have a strong culture

if you’ve ever ordered swag for your team or thought about it, what actually matters to you. design, quality, price, something else

just trying to understand where i might be thinking about this wrong

Looking for some input from people who’ve experimented with different peptides for recovery.

I’m about ~3 months post-op. Healing has been okay overall, but feels like it’s plateauing a bit at this point.

Right now I’m running:
- tirz
- KLOW protocol

and considering whether it makes more sense to switch over to BPC-157 instead, given it’s more directly associated with tissue repair.

Main questions:
- for those who’ve used both, did BPC feel more targeted/effective for recovery vs KLOW?
- is it still worth introducing BPC at this stage (3 months post-op), or is most of the benefit earlier in the healing window?
- did anyone stack them vs fully switching?

I’ve been tracking how things progress over time, but trying to be a bit more intentional with what I’m running next.

Would appreciate any real experiences or thoughts on this.

Hello! 👋

I am preparing for summer. I want to get my skin ready for summer and also get rid of the dark parts on my inner thigh. Then I saw PRX-T33, because it says theres no peeling after the treatment which is ideal for me because I have work and I dont want my skin to peel, but not sure how effective it is? Any reviews? Also any peel recommendations for inner thigh dark parts?
