I run AdsXposed (https://adsxposed.com) on the side. It's a project that scrapes online ads (specifically popups and redirects) and provides intelligence on them. Which publishers they popped on, which countries, to which devices, etc. It brings in pretty reasonable $$$.

We make more than that with VYPER -- http://vyper.io

You should change your table for free/pro/enterprise so entries about the same thing are in the same row, e.g. "100 emails per contest" should be in the same row as "Unlimited emails per contest".

Is there a common place on the internet for such discussions? A site where people can share ideas and find people to work together.

I think that kind of the idea with http://barnacl.es/, it's more about people trying to bootstrap and/or run a lifestyle business, but I'd say that overlaps with the 'side-project that makes money' crowd pretty well.

I have been reading it for the past few months, the traffic is pretty low and it's a bit marketing guide heavy at times, but overall an interesting community IMHO.

Congratulations on your success. Curious who is purchasing that kind of info, though..
