I recently built this site for fun.
Without doing much in terms of marketing, it is already getting a few visits per day (currently at ~50). This validates there is potential to grow. But how would I monetize this site other than showing ads? Got any clever ideas?
Love the idea of the "Magic 8 Ball", it's something I would like to get on my phone as widget, but I'm not sure if something like that could be a premium feature or even posible
Thanks! I'm thinking to turn this into an app and maybe sell an ad-free version?
Sponsors would be my first bet. I know if I was marketing my product right now, I'd pay for my name/link to show up someone on the page (i.e., Today's spins are sponsored by...). Plus, you'll clear way more than you would with ads at that traffic level.
I like this idea! Are there platforms to help with this? Or would I have to go and find sponsors myself?
I'd start with the sites ilsted here: https://ghost.org/resources/paid-sponsorships-email-newsletter/#step-5-find-and-contact-your-first-potential-sponsor These are all companies who are currently sponsoring content, so they're keen to get more visibility.
I see you're selling the plugin, wouldn't have that be the monetizing structure? Or am I missing something?
Yes but I don't think the site is a good lead magnet for the plugin. It's a completely different audience. I just added the links so I'd have some outbound links to point to.
I like the site. It's fun to interact with. Curious about the confetti. Is that a plugin? Would you mind sharing how to achieve the same effect (with sound)? Thx!
