consistency being the real variable tracks, but the compounding thing cuts both ways. print on demand i scaled to about 4k/month on redbubble before it stalled, and looking at it now the stall wasn't burnout, it was that i stopped refreshing designs and the algorithm buried old listings. crypto...

the payment side is actually the part most people underestimate here, not the account setup. i ran ads through a friend's US LLC for about 8 months and the account worked fine but getting the payouts routed back without triggering compliance flags ate up like 15-20% of what i was moving. wise...

I work on paid acquisition for a B2B SaaS tool and last month we cut our main LP load time from 4.5s to under 2s. conversions jumped like 15-20% which was way more than I expected for a speed fix. the dev team pushed back on prioritizing it but the numbers shut that down fast. anyone else in...

honestly i'd push back on the direct MFA buy idea before you go hunting for a network, i ran a test through TrafficShop specifically targeting low-quality display inventory back in 2022 and burned through $400 in 3 days with a CTR that looked great on paper but converted at basically zero. the...

yeah the brand signals thing is real, i ran an ahrefs content gap audit last year on a niche finance site i had doing solid numbers, like 40k monthly visits, and watched it drop 60% after a core update while bankrate-adjacent garbage with weak backlink profiles held steady. the one part id push...

landing page testing is actually not the biggest money pit imo, broad match keywords with no negative list will drain your budget way faster. i ran google ads for a supplement offer years back and blew through $800 in like 4 days because i forgot to add any negatives, google just matched me to...

rankmath has that built-in SEO analysis tab but honestly it misses a lot of the woocommerce-specific stuff, like product schema validation, i ran a site through rankmath and it showed all green then google search console was throwing structured data errors on like 40 product pages. worth running...

peptides are a gray area on facebook so yeah, disapprovals make sense but the testing order you described is roughly right with one big catch. creative testing first is correct, but if your audience is too broad you're basically paying to train their algorithm on the wrong people, i burned...

honestly the "pay me as you wish, even nothing is fine" framing is the part id push back on a little, not because generosity is bad but because ive watched that arrangement go sideways fast, the person doing the work stops caring around week 3 because theres no skin in the game on either side. i...

cold outreach was mine but the "cold message" framing kind of undersells how badly the first 40 went, sent them through upwork and got nothing back for like 3 weeks straight. what actually moved things was posting a gig with a stupidly specific title instead of generic stuff like "i will build...

is it just me or does going solo feel like you're rebuilding the plane while flying it? two years ago i walked away from a comfortable agency salary to run my own ppc consultancy. first month i had one client paying $800/month and i thought i was gonna starve. fast forward to now and i'm sitting...

yeah theres no direct tattoo filter in meta so your best bet is leaning hard into the creative itself, women who dont have tattoos tend to self-select when the imagery and aesthetic matches their vibe, saves you from wasting spend on mismatched clicks further down the funnel

good timing on updating this, been needing a fresh list for a while... did the community feedback change which services made the cut compared to your previous version, or was it mostly just adding new ones?

nuxt is a solid pick but curious if you've thought about the auth layer yet, thats usually where non-traditional programmers hit a wall fast and it can eat weeks if you're not careful with how you wire it up from the start

arm windows rdp is actually pretty rare to find as a managed service, most providers are still x86 only. whats the specific use case pushing you toward arm over a standard windows instance?
