Real talk: I can't keep up with updating the content on @openalternative.co.
Every f*ing company is now pivoting daily to a different kind of AI tool or infra for AI.
Trying every angle to milk the cow as much as they can.
I absolutely hate it.

Added new pSEO pages to @openalternative.co yesterday and first organic visitors started arriving today!
I love to experiment with new way to attract traffic to this site 🥰
Can you guess what that is? 😅

I must say, DataFast is fantastic.
I was quite skeptical initially, but integrating revenue data with web analytics is brilliant.
I can easily see what are my best converting sources, pages and campaigns, all presented in a stunning dashboard.
Great work @marclou.bsky.social 👏🏻

Quick question for anyone making actual money with website ads 👇
I just tested Google AdSense for 24hrs:
🤑 Made $2.50 (with ads EVERYWHERE)
📈 The site gets 325k page views/m
🚫 75% of users blocked them anyway
Am I missing something here? Because this math ain't mathing 🤔

one month ago I've open-sourced Vemetric
since then, it has gained 137 stars
I've recently seen quite some projects growing much faster, but given it's my first real open-source project, I'm kinda happy about this number already! :D

It used to be launch-day-only traffic. Now it's just another ordinary day.
