I love this article just because so many commenters hate it. I really like the super niche side-projects -- I ran an analytics site for minor league football, built with a couple of Ruby scripts and a free Netlify plan. Was featured on ESPN, famous NFL twitter accounts, and did a million pageviews in 2 months.
I licensed the data to a fantasy football site and it was starting to make money before the league shut down.
The stakes are so low that it's really worth giving it a go.
- eightturn 6y agoauthor here. It is fun to see the differing opinions on domain names.. very split audience. thanks for sharing.
- swanson 6y agoYeah I didn't do it "domain-first" but love the idea. Still own the domain: noextrapoints.com, seems good for a football related site. Just bought "streamerjobs.com" for $13 inspired by your post. Maybe a job board for Twitch/YouTube people to hire video editors.
- eightturn 6y agothat's a good jobs domain. nice grab.
