That was my dream once upon a time. I put my blood, sweat, and tears into making it happen. Check out my indie product: https://quotion.co

I build https://quotion.co just for this purpose, you can publish blog with just Apple Notes. Feel free to give it a shot

This is fantastic! I’d like to share it with quotion.co users, I believe they will love it

Hi Fralix, actually, it's 100K pageviews for $19, not 10K. The price is much lower than that of many similar products, such as feather.so. I understand your concern, we plan to introduce a mid-tier plan between the free and pro, making it easier for customers like you to upgrade. Feel free to try Quotion, we will announce new pricing soon.

Right, thanks for sharing your concerns. Quotion didn't use scripts to scrape notes with iCloud API, although I did dig into that direction, but it's a dead end.

Thanks for sharing, in fact I did read your post to dig into tech details, thank you for your work. Actually, Quotion sites can be customized in Apple Notes directly, check it out: https://docs.quotion.co/features/customize-layout . Other things like colors, fonts, they all can be achieved with similar format. Looking forward to your launch, :)

This is the biggest secrete of Quotion, it took me months to figure out how to read/parse Apple Notes content correctly. I may write a blog post about the overview of tech

Thank you InvaderFizz, tbh, I follow this pricing model from some similar products, all of them charge for pageviews. And we don't charge customers based on their usage directly, we just ask them to upgrade plans politely if they have exceeded the limitations, it's fine if it's a one time traffic spike. Again, thank you so much for your valuable feedback!

Thank you! Montaigne is really amazing! Quotion can't make it without montaigne!
devrsi0n··on Show HN: A Website to Turn Your Apple Notes into Blogs
Yeah, I got your concerns, we all hate vendor lock-in. Maybe Quotion can provide a function to export your Apple Notes as markdowns, so you can download and import them everywhere, does this address your concerns? Regarding the pricing, what's your ideal pricing for the Pro plan?
devrsi0n··on Show HN: A Website to Turn Your Apple Notes into Blogs
Thank you for the feedback. Which plan do you think is overpriced? We have a free plan with 5K pageview per month, maybe it's not big enough for influencers, but it's a good start.
devrsi0n··on Show HN: A Website to Turn Your Apple Notes into Blogs
Thanks, removing branding with $2 looks like exactly what montaigne is providing. Fair enough, I need to reconsider the pricing model for Free plan.

Hi mrweasel, I've just reduced the Pro plan to $19 per month and the Enterprise plan from $199 to $99. Does this make sense to you? Will you consider it if you need to build a blog site?
devrsi0n··on Show HN: A Website to Turn Your Apple Notes into Blogs
Thank you for the feedback; it means a lot to me. As you mentioned, Medium/Substack is indeed my ultimate target. But for now, my focus is on ensuring the service is stable and feature-rich. Regarding the pricing, I agree that it may have been a bit overpriced compared to the current feature set. I've just reduced the Pro plan to $19 per month and the Enterprise plan from $199 to $99. I intend to maintain this pricing for early adopters while continuing to add more features, hope it makes sense.

Thanks for the feedback, I'm reconsidering the pricing as well. 29 might be too high compare to our current feature set, maybe $19 fair enough?
