I am not being judgemental, rather trying to understand how you get fish of that size with your far-from-well-designed website (from your profile), and far-from-rich marketing contents. Is that luck? Or, your lack of time to work on your own presentation? Again, I am seriously not being judgmental, I am curious.

You are being judgemental, even if you claim not to be. GP, I think your website is well designed, fwiw.

  Then the website must be breaking on my side, even though I cannot see any error (neither in Safari, nor in Chrome), only a couple of warnings. This is good for GP to fix the issue, I guess.

You aren't wrong it's been on my list forever to work on my site. FWIW some of the best media buyers I know though literally don't have websites. I've been doing Facebook ads for 9 years. My team and I are a white label agency so we do the media buying for creative shops, designers, content marketers, etc. So I didn't land any client. I partnered with the folks that did. I got the partnership by putting out a ton of content on Youtube (Over 20 hours worth), through doing a 30 episode deep podcast on running an advertising agency, and being super helpful in a number of Facebook groups, Linkedin groups, etc. for years. Tl;DR Content Marketing + Networking

  It looks good to me. Putting out relevant content and networking is where it's at, too. Even if your website actually was bad, you'd probably be fine. I used to get a lot of work for web design without a website. I had a resume with good references and urls leading to good work samples. That's the stuff that counts. There was no shortage of jokes about not having a website though, and everyone thought they were the first person to tell me 'the cobbler's children go barefoot', haha.
