Bonjour! I'm Dany

I often feel lost when it comes to find the right things on the internet nowadays...
So I built a solution to gather them!

Dany

I spent 12 years risking my life all around the globe but 1 year ago I decided to settle down a bit.
So I went back to my first love: building stuff. But something stayed the same: I love risks. So I took the most difficult path to entrepreneurship but the most rewarding one too: IndieHacking.

I can now count on myself only to provide you the best products and my family the life they deserve.

I found my way by building a directory of books visited by over 2,000 #indiehackers a month. But in this game, you have to be one step ahead.

That's why I built this site not only to be a great product, but also to be usable and used by as many people as possible easily and in no time.

You find this cool? You're not alone!

Just look at what people are saying about DirectoryFast.

“Directories are underrated! Can be a great passive revenue stream. Cool to see this, I know where to start next time I build one!”

Dan Mindru
@dan_mindru

“Actually quite useful, it will come in handy.”

Dagobert Renouf
@dagorenouf

“Directories are the next big thing. I advise beginner makers to make a directory first. It is a great first step. Much better than a SaaS because one can procrastinate with SaaS for years without even starting doing marketing. With directory you can finish building within a week (or a day if you use an advanced tool like Directoryfast) and go to the hardest part — promoting it.”

Alexander Isora
@alexanderisorax

“Great work. Most directories use things like Wordpress with all of its issues, with DirectoryFast you get the right setup for your directory.”

David Gutiérrez

“This is an absolutely helpful product for those who want to build a directory product. Classic. A must buy and ride the directory wave :)”
