I made ~$4000 last month by arbitraging crypto currencies on 3 markets. I use a bot to do the work for me, but I monitor it very closely and I spend a lot of optimizing the old code. I don't have much money on the exchanges because I don't trust them but I could make much more if I wanted to risk more.

http://reviewsignal.com - ~$3,000/month I run the largest web hosting review site. It uses twitter comments as the data source. I wrote nearly the entire thing from scratch in PHP/MySql with a couple libraries for twitter streaming api, templating, WordPress blog.

I don't do side projects or open source any more and run some bots for cryptocurrency trading instead. The bots continue to grow their positions and has been several times more lucrative than anything else I've tried to monetize at a fraction of the effort ¯\_(シ)_/¯ I guess it still counts

how does it make money?
https://wanqu.co - A San Francisco engineer (me) curates 5 English articles on tech & startup for Chinese makers everyday. Started on August 6, 2014. It's a side project of mine. I built a website (Django), a native iOS app (Swift), a native Android app (React Native), and some automation tools. It brings around $1200/month via iOS in-app-purchase, sponsorship, affiliate links etc. I keep a full time job while doing…
I feel there's a huge pattern of "proficient in X and Y" opportunities that people underappreciate.
There may be a million people better than you at X, another million better at you than Y, but only 10 better than you at X and Y.
So if an idea requires expertise in both, the chances of success increase substantially. Or at best, there's simply no one who's ever done it!

Curious~ age income occupation? I'm seeking to do this as well.
30, ~125k household income for two adults no kids, IT and teacher. Our income made it a little easier to get here but the $200k hole of combined student loans we started with (now fully paid off) probably counters that pretty evenly.

This is an awesome project, nice job! If you don't mind sharing, how did you land your first few law/economics blog customers? Seems like they might be a tough market to get into. Do you run into onboarding issues with them around the script setup? One small nitpick - your three section links in the header ("How it Works", "Analytics", "Why Publir") need a "cursor: pointer;" rule on them.
To be honest, my partner and I just made a Sheets doc of all the blogs we read, and emailed the writers (usually professors) letting them know that they can give their readers a fair way "out" of the ad ecosystem. They loved it. Figuring out how to remove ads client-side while not getting the site "charged" for policy violations by the ad networks was tough, though.
I made ~500 euro a month by running ads on my a visualization website[1] I made a few years back (in a weekend). I've earned that until a month ago, when I changed the Google AdSense ads to a static ad (which I don't get commission for). [1] https://blocks.wizb.it/

I've been working on my app Leap Second, it generates somewhere around 1-3k per month. https://www.leapsecond.co I created the app after using 1 Second Everyday crashed on me and deleted a few years videos. The app stores everything in the Photos app which made it very fast and easy to develop (a weekend). Now I spend a few hours a month mostly improving the UI and doing bug fixes as I find them. Initial traction was…
Pretty sweet. How do you generate income? Ads?
