Micro SaaS is a type of Software-as-a-Service product, and today’s show looks at the pros and cons of creating one as your business model. This is part of a series looking at 7 different types of products that can be built using the WordPress Plugin Programming Framework. This is what we focus on at wpPluginCollege.com with our shows and courses.
- MicroSaaS are specifically engineered to be built and operated by a solo-founder or perhaps a tiny team.
- It is often the choice for those seeking to build a sustainable, lifestyle business.
- They can also be scaled larger if circumstances dictate.
- I feel that this presents a lot of cool opportunities to programmers and founders who are bootstrapping and need to go after a tightly niche market.
As usual, I am embedding both a YouTube and Podcast version below – enjoy!

We are exploring what it means to be a creative solo-programmer / solo-founder, and how to harness the power of WordPress by developing our own custom plugins. Plugins can be stand-alone products, all the way to the core of a micro SaaS, WaaS, or even XaaS bootstrapped business. Along the way we will learn how to code in PHP, JavaScript, and leverage the cool functions and hooks and libraries that come with the WordPress framework. The potential for creating new experiences and value for users is limited only by our creativity. Hosted by Jamie Robe, solo-founder of PluggedIntoProgramming.com

We use SWOT analysis to take an objective look from the solo-programmer or solo-founder’s perspective.
