Could you give an idea of how many users do you need to get to $1000 a month from ads please?
Ad rates are around $3 CPM meaning for 1000 page views you get $3 so do the math. Sudoku sites are unusual since one page view can last hour(s) as the user solves the puzzle.
I make $10.000+ on a solitaire website called https://online-solitaire.com/ , that I made a while back.
When we decided it was time to start a family, I quit my job as a Software Engineer in a web agency - but I didn't want to stop working. I started with a couple of common ideas that we always had to implement for a lot of clients and I built a couple of simple Django-based services on Digital Ocean, in the free time I had from taking care of my newborn. Therefore right now I'm running: - https://getgeoapi.com : a Geo…
I had developed an iOS app with backend for construction site businesses. It was making ~$700/month for the last year, now I'm in process of selling through microaccquire for $60k.

I built a board game in 2021 that has been just breaking the cutoff for this post, all I do is mail out a few games a week as we get orders. We do all our own fulfillment to save money. Currently trying to design a real video game. I got lucky with the board game because it targeted a really niche audience (rock climbers) and so we weren't really competing with the full board game market, which is honestly super satu…
In early 2022, I'm going to manufacture a small number of the game using The Game Crafter (it's more than just cards), but the whole idea of manufacturing 500 copies and the logistics of shipping are daunting.

I just visited your website, and had fun in the "small internet" sense. Thanks :) I was very surprised your pages had a .gmi extension but were actually normal html. Then I figured your "memex" engine probably automatically translates gemini content to html and doesn't bother changing the extension (which in retrospect is more of a feature than a bug). Very nice. I noticed your search engine is not available on gemin…
Yeah, the memex straddles both protocols, and the urls are the same save for the protocol. It's essentially a single user wiki based on git and gemtext. The search engine is available on Gemini, just not at that address. Try gemini://marginalia.nu/search
Maybe put a link to this search url somewhere on the main page, specifically for gemini visitors?
There's no indication at all that this url exists when browsing your pages.

I recently found pirateship and it is indeed significantly cheaper than retail shipping prices. I told my mom about it and she refused to believe it isn't a scam!
How does pirateship work? Where do the savings come from if they're still using USPS under the hood?

Would you mind sharing what the revenue breakdown looks like between these? Do you find Mac or iOS is more lucrative?
The iOS app is much newer and much more niche, but it’s starting to break ground. For now most of the revenue is in macOS but my ultimate goal is to make iOS be my #1 platform in terms of revenue. That’s because, simply, I’d rather offload a lot of marketing and deployment/payment bandwidth to the App Store to focus on the products.
