Really Boring Websites, But making $1,000,000
These individuals are geniuses.
When we think of billion-dollar companies, they often scale a simple solution to millions of users.
As humans, we tend to replicate this model, trying to build competitors to giants like OpenAI, Microsoft, and Google, only to end up complaining about a lack of resources.
Most indie hackers follow a straightforward trick: they build solutions for pain points that at least 100 people experience.
And the cool part of scaling this is, if it has more than 100 users, you can easily have 1000 or even 10,000 users.
Here are some of the boring businesses I found that operate as cash cows on autopilot:
1. SiteGPT
SiteGPT functions like ChatGPT but specifically for websites. It provides instant answers to visitors’ questions through a personalized chatbot trained on your website’s content.
This one-man business run by Bhanu Teja generates over $300,000.
