You think they didn't thought about it?

I'm not doubting the stats, just saying that Cloudflare is not an accurate gauge of website views and visits. Cloudflare shows 3x the pageviews on my site than Google Analytics.

Agree with you. Ads make sites look bad and I say this as an owner of several websites that run ads lol.

SteamDB looks pretty amazing and sleek without ads. Putting ads would only degrade the user experience and force people to install adblockers or use adblocking browsers like Brave. Kudos to xPaw for keeping his site ad-free for all of us to enjoy.

Cloudflare stats are inflated. I have a site getting 30k visits a day according to Google Analytics but Cloudflare says it's close to 100k. So I think Cloudflare doesn't filter out bots in their analytics.

He's doing us a favor by not plastering ads all over his site.

I have a website that allows you to check the availability of domain names without worrying about registrars "stealing" the idea from you.

So far, it's making 0 from affiliate links. Never did much promotion because I mostly use it myself.

Nice. Did you code it yourself?

Cool. Will try it out. Can I ask you a question?

I started a tech blog as a side project 5 years ago. Now it's making $3,000-5,000 a month. It currently has around 600 articles.

Display ads make the bulk of the income. Affiliate links are a distant second.
