Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 22/12/2024Just won the auction for pal.to for $1K Couldn't pass this up, would be a perfect short link for Pallyy. Funny it also has a DR or 12 with 100+ back links (not that it matters). 280
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 20/12/2024colordrop.io rebuild done! now that it's re-built in nuxt it's going to be super easy to add more features, ads etc will be interesting to see the traffic after a day or so 070
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 19/12/2024Not very. Only dif is this is curated palettes and you can't create your own like colormagic. 100
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 19/12/2024Faster for me to rebuild in Nuxt! Going to go this route, already 50% done. 030
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 18/12/2024Yeah, if I can't be bothered re-building but feel like that may be a waste as you don't get 100% of the seo benefits. 010
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 18/12/2024Just acquired colordrop.io for $5K USD. - 10 years old - 110K unique visitors/mo (mostly non-organic) - 59 DR + 3.7K back links Re-build and focus on increasing ad revenue, or redirect to ColorMagic? 4120
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 16/12/2024colorwheel.co just popped it's head on to the first page for "color wheel" (600K+ monthly searches). can't see it there anymore, but to even get on there is interesting. will update more once i've got more data 150
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 16/12/2024Could you turn your DM's on so I can chat to you about palettable? Would love to buy the domain & revive it! 000
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 16/12/2024just a bit of weekend fun but also nice to see what effects these things have on SEO 140
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 16/12/2024Revived rgbhexcode.com back what it looked like in 2013, with just html, js and css. Even re-built the color picker created in 2007 because it's pretty nice to use. Also it has decent back links from 2015 (one is from word press), wonder if they still help. 270
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 12/12/2024Just won the auction for colorwheel.co for ~$400. Not going to be a easy one to rank, "color wheel" has 600K+ monthly US searches (1.1M globally). My plan: - build a color wheel - wait 5 years - put ads if it grows 470
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 11/12/2024Hmm yeah I've already got some moderation but I guess some people have got around it. Will have to work on that. 000
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 10/12/2024The color palette generator I acquired (colormagic.app) crossed 2.2M views in last 30d! Just removed the paywall, added pages, added tons of internal linking, optimized titles and descriptions etc. 4120
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 09/12/2024Won the auction for jan.to but no idea what to do with it. Any ideas? Change my name to Jan?jan.tojan.to - a really cool domain parked on Park.io | Park.ioThe domain name jan.to is being parked on Park.io. Contact the domain owner to make an offer right now... 020
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 08/12/2024Re-built the OG snake game from the Nokia 3310. Single HTML file. 290 lines of code. Built with @v0.dev in a few hours. snakega.me 4281
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 08/12/2024True, but I like doing on render more. Feels like more flexibility. 010
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 08/12/2024- just moved to a town that has a dvd shop - now i'm building stuff in pure js/html/css what's my next move 770
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 08/12/2024For those who can't code, or want to learn, would you like me to publish a free, simple tutorial about how you can build a simple webpage (like timb.com) in 10 minutes? Would just show how to: - build a html page - push to github - deploy it on render - connect your domain 370
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 07/12/2024Totally. It's great for simple apps, if you're getting complex then a framework is obv the way to go. 110
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 07/12/2024Forgot how nice building things with pure html/css/js is. No build steps, no need to upgrade packages, super fast, 4x 100's on google page speed etc etc. Built timb.com this morning which took ~10 mins from start to being deployed on a custom domain.timb.comTim BennettoFounder of things on the internet.

Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 06/12/2024Yeah, will add a better color picker tomorrow. Yep, that's the goal - "add text to image" is the keyword although pretty hard to rank for. 010
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 06/12/2024Just launched textoverphoto.com. Does one thing: adds text to photos. Simple to use. No login required, 100% free. 4180

Reposted by Tim BennettoJoel Gascoigne @joel.is · 30/11/2024It's a little hard to believe. Fourteen years ago today, I launched Buffer from my apartment in Birmingham, in the UK. Today the business generates $1.65 million per month, serves 59,000 customers, and enables fulfilling work for 72 people.

Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 30/11/2024Reading your posts always gives me that extra bit of motivation to keep going. Feel like I'm in my 2nd era now (just cracked 5y), but I've just got to trust the process and keep going like you did. Congratz on 14 years mate. Super inspiring. 030
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 30/11/2024Have had a decent offer on ColorMagic that I'm seriously considering. If you're interested in acquiring it, send me an offer. In the last 45 days it's had 2.4 million pageviews, mostly from USA. It's also generated almost 1 million palettes, so the users are very active. 2120
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 29/11/2024Ah yep true. Have considered adding a simple subscription back but only for people liking (saving) palettes so maybe that could add some revenue too. 000
Tim Bennetto @handle.invalid · 29/11/2024Yeah that's what I'm thinking. Must be a popular one. Have tried to find but can't lol. 010
