Today I woke up. Checked my analytics in Clarity. I could not believe it. I am a pokemon fan. I really liked plaing the new Pokemon Sleep. So i made tool for it called online pokemon sleep grader or calculator. => pokemonsleepgrader.com So My lil side/fun project website has crossed 1000+ view. I felt very empowered & wanted this to share with everyone. Major traffic is also coming straight from USA. I cant attach screenshot here. It would be great if I could. So sharing screenshot link here. https://ibb.co/dK3RRHZ Thank you!!!

Would be better if you could share what you did to improve visibility

  Google's message is clear: Forget SEO, Make original and interesting posts.

    Ok, I just realized there is a screenshot showing how search engines contribute to people's visits. That make sense because search engines were invented for this purpose. This is also very inspiring for indie website authors in today's AI era.

      Yes! Now a days They like original content more! I also have some other projects. but they new reached 1000+ views this fast. Only reason i think of is that, for search engine this might be original kind of content. Also user spent lots of time on the site too. I read somewhere that google also tracks it.

  1. Super fast Website loading speed. 2. Multi language support. 3. Wrote article around main functionality. 4. Lastly, Focused On SEO => OnSite. (HTML tags h1, h2 etc)

Congratulations! Knowing how many of those views come from search engines is also interesting. On my blog padiracinnovation.org/News, there roughly 1000 visits by search engines every day (while I create a new post only every 5 days!). Google comes roughly 13 times per day, but it used to inspect my site at a much higher rate. In addition to search engines, there are SEO engines and now AI search engines (Claude/OpenAI).

  Also i checked google crawl visit per days. On this project ~20/per day. Is this normal or good or bad ?

  Thank you for your kind words. That's really interesting about your blog getting 1,000 search engine visits daily. I hadn't thought about tracking the different types of visitors like that. I'll definitely look into analyzing my traffic sources better. I'm curious - what makes Google visit some sites more frequently than others ?
