I've this wonderful app – but no users

Hacker News

I've made a SaaS, http://git-publish.com and released it yesterday. There's a lot of similair services out there, so from that and my own experience I know that there's a need for such a service. However after several hours I got no users. Now a hours isn't that long, but just leaving a site up without promoting it won't lead anyone to find it. So the question is, what do I miss to make this a service that people wants to use? Is it just marketing? The design of the site? Or maybe something lacking with the service?
