design, rankings, and money
Want to know how you can turn 5 minutes worth of work creating a simple, minimalistic landing page into a $66.8M/yr business? Just ask Mozilla. According to a not entirely recent but still recent enough to be topical article at TC Mozilla pulled in about $66.8M last year with roughly 85% being from the search bar on the default Firefox start page (and embedded in the browser itself).
Ain’t that some shit?
I told you I wasn’t dead. In case you’re reading this through RSS, my blog has been redesigned (by me) with a cleaner, more functional design. The last one done by Jens (hjalmar) was amazing but just didn’t lend itself to serving up high-content posts. Since I sold NBB I’ve needed an outlet to talk about the industry the way I did earlier this year, but this blog just wasn’t built for it and I didn’t think it would be fair to NBB’s buyer to start a new “make money online” blog. So my solution was to redesign this one with a slightly less visually stunning, but exponentially more functional design.
What do you guys think? Good?
I am a 22 year old web designer and marketer from Charleston, South Carolina.
This blog is where I share my experiences as a web designer over the last 7 years as well as a place for me to talk about my new projects and evolving online network.
