NichePursuits.com - From 👎 to $7k a month out of nowhere

What would you do if you quickly got traction and started growing from 5, to 6, to $7k MRR out of nowhere with one of your products?

For Jesse Schoberg it meant dropping his other projects to focus exclusively on DropInBlog.

Jesse started DropInBlog in 2015 and the results were pretty underwhelming for the first few years.

Then seemingly out of nowhere the product started gaining traction in 2019.

Now the product is on pace to do nearly 7 figures in 2021!

DropInBlog is a product that gives non-WordPress site users an easy solution to embed a blog on their website. It’s popular for use with Shopify stores and many other platforms that don’t automatically come with a blog installed.

We interviewed Jesse on Niche Pursuits. Jesse’s story is full of helpful and motivational points, and he has some great advice to offer along the way.

His story isn't perfect though. He talks about a $20,000 mistake he made with Facebook ads and what is working to grow the business instead.

Or quickly burning through budgets when making the mistake of hiring too quickly.

The good news is we don't have to make the same mistakes twice.

Read the full DropInBlog story and how Jesse would have avoided his mistakes and do it differently here.

$500 Per Month in Home Improvement Niche

Motion Invest currently has 14 sites for sale. One of them is in the home improvement and appliance niche.

The site took a dip in traffic in late 2020, but it's been consistently making around $500/month. A few months back, it was making double, but it's been priced, taking into account its current revenues.

Want a site that is on an upward trend instead? No problem, Motion Invest currently has 14 niche sites for sale here.


Google Analytics Competitor is Gaining Traction

Two founders that have never met each other in person are taking on Google Analytics.

Plausible Analytics is a simple, open source, lightweight (< 1 KB) and privacy-friendly alternative to Google Analytics.

It's interesting how a Google Analytics alternative can get traction this fast.

The team has grown from $400 to $22k MRR in one year.

Read what and why founder Marko Servic and his partner are building the Google Analytics alternative in his recent Indie Hackers ask me anything series.


Thanks again for reading,

Spencer
