I run my side project https://namesmith.io https://namesmith.io for about 5 years now. It is a domain name generator which can also check the domain availability. It is covering the server cost plus a bit extra. About $200 per month.
I didn't work on it for about 3 years but I recently decided to give it some love. I still think it has potential.
- pythonbase 6y agoEarnings come solely from domain registration commissions? If yes, then $200/mo is not bad at all.
- fileeditview 6y agoSome small earnings come from domain registration commissions themselves. Most of it comes from commissions for hosting packages. In the past the site made more money because I got commission from domain sales/auctions. Because of API changes and what not this changed but I plan to bring this back. In my experience this is the most lucrative part of this site even if sales are very sporadic.
