Nostr Web Client

Can anyone guide me to the best state of the art for announcing Services (like relays, blossoms, etc...) on :Nostr: Nostr?

I don't know of anything like that.

Some sort of Nostr services marketplace where devs can promote their latest client, or users can compare the services provided by various paid relays?

It seems like a tool a lot of folks would find useful. I could even see it being worth having dynamic suggestions, based on your WoT.

Say you wanted to see recommendations for a Nostr address provider. If you're logged in, it could look at the domains that are most popular among your WoT, pulling the info from their kind 0, and display a ranked list to the user.

Similarly, if you wanted to see recommendations for Blossom servers, it could look at the kind 10063s of those within your WoT. The same could be done with relays, pulling from their 10002s to determine which ones are most popular.

In-app Hosting purchase.

That's what we're doing.

Will build on marketplace spec.

Looking at kinds != Looking at a marketplace

It gives data and that's great.

But it doesn't give buyable products IN-APP.

That's a very good point.

A marketplace where those offering services have to list them could still integrate WoT based rankings, though.

Say nostr.wine, nostr.land, and jellyfish.land each listed their paid relays in the marketplace and the user could pay for them directly within the app. They might still find it useful to see which of them was used most by those in their WoT.

When nuanced comparisons as well? :)

The other relays you mentioned use slower relay software abd have less features.

There anywhere that performs testing of such things that could be pulled in by the marketplace? If not, that will be on the relay owner to market why their paid relay is better than the competition.
