I've been developing ngtly.com (ngtly.com/berlin for context), a platform that automatically curates nightlife events across major European cities—currently covering 23 cities with populations over 300,000. Over the past couple of months, we've attracted about 1.5-2k unique visitors per month, with around 200 returning users. The service is entirely free for nightlife enthusiasts, aiming to provide comprehensive event listings without ads or data collection.
I'm running this project solo, and while it's been rewarding, there are challenges in scaling and sustaining it—like covering operational costs (~€20 per city per month) and expanding to more locations. I'm planning to eventually monetize through partnerships with promoters and venues, but for now, I'm looking for feedback or suggestions on improving the platform and reaching a wider audience without compromising on the user experience. Any insights or critiques from the community would be greatly appreciated.
