Full-fledged directories built in a flash
I purchased a lifetime Row.so plan last week. I was already familiar with Richard’s powerhouse work on Sheetany, a website builder powered by Google Sheets, as well as Sheetfetch, Ebookany, and Upwip. These days, I run about 50 websites and subdomains through Sheetany. It brought my enthusiasm for building websites back after WordPress had completely exhausted me. Thanks to Richard’s simple, lightweight tools, I’m enjoying website creation again. I’ve purchased two Sheetany agency plans (a third for a former client), plus lifetime deals for Sheetfetch and Ebookany.
With Row.so, creating a directory is remarkably fast. Both the front-end and back-end designs impressed me, and setting up a directory was incredibly straightforward. I shared a few suggestions with Richard, and within several days he had added the map component and blog features I had imagined. That level of responsiveness is remarkable. Since Row.so is still in its early stages, you can expect many more improvements to be introduced over time.
At the moment, I’m testing seven directories, each of which I built in a few handful of minutes. I’m exploring Row.so thoroughly so that every project is ready to perform well when launched. Pages and blogging capabilities make it possible to support each directory with useful content, which is essential for improving search rankings. Reaching a strong position in search engine results pages can take time, and these tools also contribute significantly to the experience of people visiting the directories. Richard also wisely included support for display advertising, since paid directory listings are not appropriate for every type of business.
One of the highlights of my experience with Sheetany has been Richard’s openness to feedback and his commitment to implementing improvements. These changes have continued to strengthen the platform. He created Sheetany to make it easy for anyone to launch a website using Google Sheets and Docs. I found that it could support complete small-business websites as well as my 732-post online magazine, which includes more than 700 categories and tags. Thanks to Richard’s ongoing enhancements, Sheetany is now capable of meeting the needs of serious publishers who want some of WordPress’s functionality without dealing with constant theme and plugin updates, broken designs, and recurring security concerns.
If Row.so appeals to you, you’ll likely find Sheetany and Sheetfetch useful too, so make sure to explore those outstanding tools as well.

Brian, thank you so much! ❤️
This honestly means a lot to me. Thank you for taking the time to write such a detailed review and for supporting not just Row.so, but also Sheetany, Sheetfetch, and Ebookany over the years.
I always enjoy our conversations because your feedback is practical and genuinely helps shape the products. Seeing you build 7 directories so quickly with Row.so makes me really happy, and I'm excited to see what you launch with them!
Thanks again for believing in what I'm building. I'll keep improving Row.so and shipping new features as fast as I can. Looking forward to hearing more of your ideas along the way!
