So, for nearly a year I didn't have any motivation to do more work, but then I signed up for a free month of SEOMOZ, and just fixed the low hanging fruit from their suggestions, and traffic doubled for last Feb.
So now it's a little more interesting. I can make $369 in a month with 150 uniques per day. What can I do with 300-500 uniques per day? And I think I can get there easy because just one blog comment I made is responsible for 20 uniques per day and I know I can outrank that blog page with a little work.
You think seeding some of your designs on pinterest might pique interest further? If anything, it can be a "proving grounds" for your newest wrapper designs.
I'll admit that I chuckled a bit when I saw you announce your product on BoS the first time, to me it seemed equally hopeless as the first couple of products I released but then never had the balls to really push onto the market. I have to admit too though that you are the one having the last laugh, even if it doesn't (yet) bring in enough to live off, it's still a very respectable result after only a year.
