Indie dev shares revenue of second site: SEO and GEO only, slow climb before paid ads
gefei55 · x · 2026-10-16
The author clarifies this is his second site with publicly shared revenue. Launched in July in a competitive, non-novel niche, it gets traffic purely from SEO and GEO with no paid ads yet, so growth is slow. Paid acquisition starts soon, and he'll keep publishing numbers so readers can see whether revenue accelerates afterward.
