Usually 3-4X of yearly profits for smaller projects like these. If it is growing at a decent pace, then you can ask for a bit more but don't expect to get more than max 3-5x of yearly profits. For example, if I sold it today, I would e

Decent Inbound traffic. I literally need to fix some technical issues to get more conversions. But I get stuck with my other business a lot more. This project needs a bit more love and can do wonders. It also has the concept of Scheduled fu

3K for HTML course is nonsense. Let me rephrase. 3K for an HTML course when you have never done anything with HTML is nonsense. 3K could be a steal depending on where you are at. Your sister hasn't done anything yet so just taking a 3K

Meaningful Connection starts with just a connection. We are all so busy in our lives these days that we forget to even say hi to people, or that neighbor or that acquaintenace that could become something more. It takes effort to do it. In

The point is that H1B process is too restrictive and not reasonable for both sides. The paperwork is the problem. The idea that you have to first show that there is no American is ridiculous. Instead, let them compete with Americans directl

Because of the hype it is generating and notice how everyone and their mother is working on a product/service around "AI" trying to make quick cash. It is a good technology but when you overhype something that much, it brings

I am a naturalized US citizen and I know how painful this whole thing is for immigrants. However, H1B visa has outlived its purpose and was designed in early 1990s which doesn't apply today. THe fraud happens because of how the system

Wrong analogy in my opinion. A hand saw vs power saw is like an old Pentium Laptop vs M2 Macbook. The latter is just faster and better. But both do not tell you how to do something. In case of the both the hand and power saw, you need to kn

One tip and I know its not easy to think about this but don't make me create an account to test yet another page builder. Not when you are unknown in a crowded space and you need to show more value before asking for account creation. J

"Why is Cloud Free going away?" Then a bunch of word salad. Why can't companies just be honest and say "We cannot afford to offer a free plan anymore" and just be done with it. Nothing wrong with it. Business has to

is 8k revenue or profit ? If profit, 250K is not a stretch considering it is just over 2.5x the profits. Some may argue that 2.5 of revenue is also not a bad thing but usually for revenue under 500K, I don't consider multiples of reven

They are notorious for this and you are not the only. Not that others are far better but MS absolutely is the worst at this. Don't even get me started on their "Windows defender" flagging websites as dangerous.

Yes. For us, this wasn't an issue since we want to keep 1 website with 1 git repo. The only thing that we are not figuring out is minification of JS/HTML/CSS yet and if cloudflare does that automatically in production.

We are betting more on Cloudflare as a company lately. Our static website was just moved to Cloudflare Pages and it is working really well (we have over 200 Pages and counting). We were trying to figure out how to handle the Cookie/Con

How do you compare against something like Signoz (YC Backed). You should probably add them to your competitors list since they are also Open Source APM.
