A live demo, a clear tech stack, good screenshots, a competitive price, and a fast seller response rate.
The 5 essentials
Analysis of the top 50 listings on Paxlava reveals 5 things they all have in common.
1. A live demo link
Listings with a live demo convert 3x better. Buyers want to see the product working before they buy.
2. A clear tech stack
List every technology used. Buyers need to know if they can maintain and deploy your project themselves.
3. At least 5 screenshots
Show the UI, the admin panel, mobile views, and any interesting features. More visuals = more trust.
4. A competitive price
Search for similar projects. Price within 20% of comparable listings unless your project is significantly better.
5. Fast response rate
Buyers message before buying. Sellers who respond within 2 hours close 40% more deals.
