I quit my job to make free web tools
Someone on Reddit asked how I make a living. Might be interesting for folks here too.Right now, we're living off our savings and my wife's salary. Both sites are already profitable, though. I've recently launched an API for NsLookup, which now generates around 100 USD / month, and both sites have ads that generate income. Not enough to replace my salary yet, but I'm confident I can increase it over time.Ads have a bad connotation, mainly because they often track users across the web. Mine don't. For WhoIsMyISP.org, I've partnered with NordVPN, and have their ads with plain ``. And for NsLookup.io, I've joined the Carbon network, which also doesn't have tracking.
