Their own site states "TinyWow is free. We don't have ads, we don't sell data. We currently have no plans to monetize. Why offer these tools for free? We operate two tech websites: Alphr & TechJunkie. We thought our users might find these tools helpful. For now, utilizing our existing infrastructure we are able to operate these tools at minimal additional cost. Building this and watching the growth has been fun, so we’re going to keep building free stuff."
Could be legit.
Thanks .. didn't saw this . wired statment , to keep site live when it losing money .
Last I checked, Uber was running at a loss. Whatsapp didn't really monetize, and got bought out by Facebook for a lot of money.
Personally, I didn't monetize my side project for 8 years. Now I plan to take it full-time as it simply didn't die - kept slow, but steady growth. It's making $1300/pm at the moment with hardly any work.
I have another side project that I am currently giving away for free - it costs me next to nothing and may grow over time.
Play the long game, and have patience.
