MyBets.gg Update: 456 Visitors, 43K Reddit Views, $0 Revenue – Learning In Public

Two weeks ago I launched mybets.gg, an AI-powered sports bet tracker. I’m still very early, just trying things, breaking things, and seeing what sticks. This is an honest update on what I’ve done so far and what I’m still completely unsure about.

The Numbers (January 2026)

Traffic so far:

• ~456 visitors to the site this month (analytics says 453 new)

• Peak: around 120 visitors on January 21st

• ~43.5K post views Reddit 

SEO / backlinks:

• Domain Rating ~13 (Ahrefs)

• ~800 backlinks from ~80 domains

• New blog + tools section just launched, so no real SEO results yet – I’m in “wait and see” mode.

Money:

• Monetization is enabled

• $0 in sales so far

I’m not trying to make this sound bigger than it is. I’m happy the graphs are finally above zero, but this is all still tiny and very early.

What I’ve Actually Done 

1. Programmatic SEO Experiments (pSEO)

I’ve just built a set of free betting tools and wired them into a /tools page:

• Kelly Criterion calculator

• Expected Value (EV) calculator

• Arbitrage calculator

• Odds converter

• Implied probability calculator

• ROI calculator

• Parlay calculator

• No-vig & vig/hold calculators

The idea came from seeing interesting threads on X about programmatic SEO for SaaS. I liked the model:

build useful tools → index them → hope they bring in long‑tail organic traffic over time.

Right now I have no proof it works for mybets.gg. They’ve only just gone live, so I’m basically sitting here waiting to see if impressions and clicks start appearing in Search Console over the next 1–3 months. I’m very much in “let’s see if this does anything” territory, not “this is crushing it.”

2. Added a Blog to Support SEO

Same story here: I’ve set up a blog and written a few long-form posts to support the tools and future SEO, but I don’t have results to brag about yet.

These are there to give Google something to index and to have internal links pointing into the tools and the main product. I don’t know yet if any of these will rank. This is an experiment, not a case study.

3. Reddit Promotion

It was great for visibility, but:

• It did not magically turn into loads of signups or revenue.

• Most people just read, upvoted, and moved on.

Reddit was good for a spike and some social proof, but I don’t want to pretend it “changed everything.” It didn’t. It just proved people are at least interested enough to click.

4. Backlinks

I’ve been submitting to different sites and directories. That’s how I ended up with ~800 backlinks from ~80 domains and a DR of about 13.

I’m aware that:

• A lot of these links are probably low‑value.

• DR 13 is still basically “baby stage.”

Next step is to focus more on quality links (betting / SaaS relevant) instead of just chasing counts.

Where I’m Confused 

1. SEO expectations
   For people who’ve done SEO seriously:

   • Is DR 13 → DR 25–30 in 1–2 months realistic if I focus on higher‑quality links and keep publishing?

   • How long did it take before your content + tools started bringing in meaningful organic traffic?

2. Programmatic SEO sanity check
   For those who’ve tried PSEO:

   • Does a tools page + supporting articles sound like a sane approach?

   • What would you do differently if you were starting this from scratch?

3. What would you do next if you were me?
   Given:

   • 456 visitors

   • 43K Reddit views

   • DR 13

   • Blog + tools just launched

What I’m Planning Next (Subject to Change)

Short term (next 30 days):

• Keep publishing 1–4 solid blog posts per week to build out the content cluster.

• Slowly shift link building from “anywhere that will list me” to “a few relevant, higher‑quality sites.”

Medium term:

• Product Hunt launch.

Why I’m Posting This

Not to show off, because honestly there’s nothing impressive here yet. I’m posting because:

• I’ve started to get some traffic.

• I’ve wired up pSEO and a blog, but have no idea if I’ve done it right.

• I’m new to SEO and SaaS growth and don’t want to keep guessing in a vacuum.

If you’ve grown a SaaS, played with programmatic SEO, or turned free tools into paid users, I’d really appreciate any blunt feedback or “if I were you, I’d do X next.”

Happy to answer any questions about what I’ve tried so far, or share numbers in more detail if that’s helpful.
