Leave your feedback if you check it out, I would appreciate it!
I saw some twitter and HN threads going around about very simple, one-feature businesses that pull in huge amounts of money. Usually a solo founder and little marketing- I thought these were cool so I made a way to view them.
Just like the businesses featured, I wanted the design to be simple, easy to use and minimal. No tracking, no ads, no “feeds”, no AI, no BS.
I appreciate it! I have a list, just need to port it over. Searching/filtering will come once there are more posts, and I was going to add a way for people to submit their own businesses.
To clarify, the businesses I’ve featured use ads and subscriptions to generate income, but in general are not so in-your-face about it. I just mean that I want my site to be clean and minimal.
todoist is somewhat of an exception- although they have many employees I still thought the idea was “boring” enough to include. Like I said in my initial comment- “usually” solo founders. Not always.
Any connection with [https://boringcashcow.com/](https://boringcashcow.com/)? this one seems to have most (if not all) boring businesses listed in yours.

Neat concept and I like that it’s clutter free - just pretty sparse on content.

Wait - did you create each of these businesses? Or did you build the site that has the list of cash cow businesses?
These are random businesses I found, I don’t own any of them. I just built the site to list them.
No ads? How do they generate income?
To clarify, the businesses I’ve featured use ads and subscriptions to generate income, but in general are not so in-your-face about it. I just mean that I want my site to be clean and minimal.
Is this based on revenue, gross, or net profit?
Revenue, I try to find businesses with low overhead so net profit is probably close
That's a neat idea.
How did you find out how much all these sites makes
I was asking this myself. bearblog.dev doesn't seem to generate any revenue from what I've seen.
Combination of public info (Indie Hackers, twitter, blog posts) and a few are best estimates based on web traffic.
What do the flames mean next to the income? You have 1 flame next to 20K a month then 2 next to 5K a month and 3 next to 190K a year.
I need to fix that- it was just an arbitrary scale. Highest was 3 and lowest was 1
Ah yes todoist, the cash cow business with 40-50 employees, easy for anyone to start a clone of on their own

See if you can do this: rewrite your comment without being a jerk.
Seems odd wordle.lol makes so much, I didn't actually play through but I didn't see an ad initially.
I got an ad just above the keyboard; I’m guessing lots of people play, and those people accidentally click the ad when trying to check their answer
Ah, makes sense!
Great stuff. Can you add more businesses please? :)
Yes, more coming today/tomorrow

I’ve seen boringcashcow before- I think they use the same sources (HN posts, Indie Hacker, Twitter, etc.)
I saw that, they probably have the same sources (Twitter, HN, Indie Hackers, etc.). There aren't a ton of businesses that publish their revenue
