I always make side projects to learn new things and they periodically make me a small amount of money.

From most recent to oldest:

Https://brand-kit.net

Have not made money yet but just launched last month. Basically it is starter business branding at a very affordable price wrapped into a service.

Https://scrape.email

Launched at the beginning of the year and making around 100/month now. I used common crawl to index emails across the web monthly making it easy to find all emails for a given website.

Https://appdoctor.io

My most ambitious project from 2 years ago. Appdoctor is an app monitoring platform with automated tests, status page and a bunch of extra stuff..makes around 150/m now.



That’s really interesting. We do something similar for clients that don’t have access to the budget needed to hire the agency proper. If I may make one comment, I thought there were too many colour choices. I work with designers everyday and even I got confused.


Where do you host your sites. Are they on cloud?
