Following six years of tutorial hell, my first website brought in $650

(Mostly venting) I’m on a journey to become debt-free, but I feel like I’m falling behind in life because of it. I’m 33, and my husband and I moved in with my parents because rent was getting too expensive. It’s a small house with just one shower—not the ideal setup. Anyway, I’m on track to pay off my credit card debt by October and my student loans by February. Our car has been paid off for a year now. I’ve been aggressively putting all my money towards paying off debt, so I have almost no savings (high-interest credit card debt has been my priority to get rid of ASAP).

I wish we could move out and buy a house, but with the current market and economic situation, I don’t see that happening anytime soon. My husband really wants us to get our own place again, maybe an apartment for a few more years, so we can save up without debt hanging over us. But I worry that we’ll be stuck renting for too long. I can’t help but feel like I’m falling behind compared to my friends who bought homes before 2020 and are starting families. I know I shouldn’t compare myself, but I’m anxious about my age and how far off everything still seems.

How does this website allow you to make money?

Create a list of things you want to do before you pass away, such as travel and earning money through affiliate marketing that inspires people to pursue their goals.

To be honest, I think this webpage would be better off with more simplicity. I see nothing further that you would like to add to it. People only want to view the chart, and once they do, they never return.

You should consider adding an option to download the graphic as a screensaver. I took a screenshot and set it as mine, and I’m not exaggerating—it changed my life. (Seriously, I’ve accomplished so much because of it.)

Whenever I’m afraid to do something, I just look at my phone.
I asked out my crush got rejected, but whatever.
Started working harder made more progress in marketing in a week than I did in a month.
Stopped wasting time on unimportant things my tolerance for mindless YouTube videos has dropped drastically.

Those are just a few examples.

I just wanted to say thank you for creating it!

Do consumers pay for their advertisements once or on a subscription basis? If the former, how do you capture payments?

Well done, the site looks fantastic.

First and foremost, dude, thank you! Thank you so much for that.

We agree to a one-time payment plan for a predetermined number of months, following which I use Stripe to create a payment link. Right now, everything is highly improvised.

Hello! This is really awesome. This is exactly where I am right now; I have a well-trafficked website that I’m not sure how to monetize. I would love to know more about the statement you made that you advertised about your website on X and then contacted possible sponsors from there. Could I send you a direct message?

I hope I can pull off something like this because I am going through the same things (tutorial hell) since 2020. This is amazing and inspiring.

That is fantastic! Congratulations for overcoming the instructional rut and launching your own website! It’s encouraging to see how a basic idea can lead to genuine success, especially when you commit to just getting something out there. Your journey shows that taking action is vital. If you want to grow even more, think about reaching out to possible partners or clients via Instagram DM automation. Getting straight to the point could help you gain more momentum. Continue your fantastic effort!
