So, here it is. I was one of those designers\/developers who spend a 30% of their time actually building stuff while spending the remaining in research to follow the best possible path. Even when I wrote, I wrote with the belief that the easy, conversational tone of good writing comes only on the eighth rewrite.

Yes, stupidity, while there are people who won&#8217;t agree with me but if you are someone who wants to work with the ideal workflow, to produce ideal products, and get ideal results then you my friend are delusional. There&#8217;s no such thing as IDEAL\/PERFECT.<\/p>\n<p>Running after an ideal state will only make you realize, after enough expense of time, that it was not worth it. I don&#8217;t know how and when, what happened but at least about two years ago, it was Jan 2013 when I first understood this term called MVP (late to the party). The minimum viable product. I was like, why didn&#8217;t I know that before<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-419\" src=\"https:\/\/ahmadawais.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/mvp.gif\" alt=\"mvp\" width=\"660\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"the-minimum-viability\">The Minimum Viability&#8230;<a href=\"#the-minimum-viability\" class=\"heading-link\">#<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>According to Wikipedia\u00a0the minimum viable product (MVP) is the product with the highest return on investment versus risk. I am an <a title=\"About\" href=\"https:\/\/ahmadawais.com\/about\/\">EMBA student<\/a> at the moment, but instead of discussing the technical bull, I&#8217;ll just come straight to the point.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"so-the-concept-of-mvp-is-when\">So, the Concept of MVP Is; When<a href=\"#so-the-concept-of-mvp-is-when\" class=\"heading-link\">#<\/a><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>you get an idea and after some research, your subconscious mind suggests you to follow it<\/li>\n<li>you start building your product, but you keep it simple and build only what matters the most<\/li>\n<li>you build and launch it as quickly as you could, in the least\u00a0possible amount of time \u00a0to help reduce the risk factor in the case of failure and increase the ROI (return on investment) in the case of success<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Enough with the story? This concept of building a product and launching it right away was awesome. I&#8217;m practicing it for about two years now, this strategy has turned\u00a0my life upside down is so many ways, that I can&#8217;t even begin to explain (read as, I am explaining it anyway :P )<\/p>\n<p>There were several reasons behind building an MVP instead a full-fledged product, one of them was &#8216;How it felt working on\u00a0your product after 6 months which is yet to be released&#8217;&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-420\" src=\"https:\/\/ahmadawais.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/6_months_late_product.gif\" alt=\"6_months_late_product\" width=\"660\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"my-workflow-in-ref-to-mvps\">My Workflow in Ref to MVPs<a href=\"#my-workflow-in-ref-to-mvps\" class=\"heading-link\">#<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>So, <a href=\"http:\/\/wpmetalist.com\/about\/\">WPMetaList.com<\/a>\u00a0was an idea, that said, I&#8217;ve always been a big fan of HackerNews and then came ProductHunt. Being in love with WordPress and unable to find a similar site for WordPress niche, I decided to build one.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>i.e. A platform\u00a0to feature creative, cool and intuitive WordPress Products every week and then allowing WordPress followers\u00a0to vote &amp; share their recommendations by voting or writing comments.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It\u00a0was September 2014, I guess. I even bought a domain WPHawker.com. Came January and a few holidays, I thought this is the best time to build it. Spent a week building the site, designing the layout, figuring out the workflow and dealing with complex responsive media queries (read as not so complex). When someone asked how long it took me to build something like that, I was like&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-422 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ahmadawais.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/less_time_toMvp.gif\" alt=\"less_time_toMvp\" width=\"660\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So, when I was done, I posted it over social media asking for <a href=\"http:\/\/wpmetalist.com\/feedback\/\">feedback<\/a>. Amazing feedback, a few people were more than happy to contribute to making it better, you know, <a title=\"How to get free support for WordPress Questions?\" href=\"https:\/\/ahmadawais.com\/get-free-support-wordpress-questions\/\">WordPress community; always helping each other out<\/a>. Two years ago, I would&#8217;ve never attempted to build a product\u00a0this way. It must have taken at least three months, one month for market research, one and a half for design &amp; development and half a month for onboarding\/copywriting\/documentation and stuff. And after all, that work if someone had told me that WPHawker domain name sounds pretty weird, my reaction would&#8217;ve been something like this&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-423\" src=\"https:\/\/ahmadawais.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/doing_it_all_wrong.gif\" alt=\"doing_it_all_wrong\" width=\"660\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"what-happened-with-the-mvp-then\">What Happened With the MVP Then?<a href=\"#what-happened-with-the-mvp-then\" class=\"heading-link\">#<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>One of my friends in WordPress community, Ansel Taft, a friendly front end developer reached out to me right after Jean Galea \u00a0from WPMayor.com had told me that he was not so sure about the name WPHawker. Ansel on the other hand, took his time, not only to provide me with feedback, he thought was critical, but also helped me brainstorm a new name. After\u00a015-20 minutes of brainstorming, I was setting up the DNS for <a href=\"http:\/\/wpmetalist.com\/about\/\">WPMetaList.com<\/a>. And this time, after the feedback, my reaction was&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-426\" src=\"https:\/\/ahmadawais.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/feedback_new_domain.gif\" alt=\"feedback_new_domain\" width=\"660\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This is\u00a0not all, more than 50 people with 100+ feedback comments\/messages in 24 hours, YOU GUYS ROCK! You won&#8217;t find such an active and helping community anywhere else. You can call it one of the biggest reasons why I love WordPress.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>To put it in a nutshell, \u00a0I built something which could be useful with the risk of failure, but only\u00a0built what was primarily needed, like there was even no newsletter signup form at that moment, and then Kim asked about it! So, I went ahead and coded one.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2 id=\"wpmetalist-stats-future\">WPMetaList Stats &amp; Future<a href=\"#wpmetalist-stats-future\" class=\"heading-link\">#<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>WPMetaList is doing just fine for a platform\u00a0which is only 7 days old.
