I think we all had our preacher/evangelist phase and the ROI isn't worth it, in fact it often puts people off, the journey of self-discovery is important too. Its why I stopped preaching and channeled my time into a blog, if people want to read it cool, if not cool
I don't really promote the blog, most of the traffic comes from organic search and we've had 206k views since i launched it in the bear market, lol keen to see how it performs in the bull

Lol no for sure it can be cleaned up, we legit just slapped the site together, besides its not like I'm making any real money from it to justify worrying about design, in fact i'm in the hole on it so honest answer, I won't bother

LOL x10 not making money and then I can send some of it to a designer, to make it look nice.
Could totally just turn the site into a referral link spam site with shitcoins and make bank, but it just isn't worth it, call me a sucker

Another suggestion is having the donate button more prominently shown on the page, I had to ctrl-f to find it lol.

Lol appreciate it, I was kinda of apprehensive about the whole shoving the dono button in people's faces, I'm still thinking of ways to better monetise it that doesn't feel like grifting, well see

Lol I agree with you from a personal standpoint, I do set it to only fire once a month (fuck knows who elementor is determining that) to try and avoid pestering people, if I could do better exclusions somehow that you might know of, send it through i'm happy to mess around with it
Sadly, It is the method that most people sign up with, when compared to the one in the footer, so I'm torn about removing it, blame the 300 normies for filling it in

I found the donation button!
Only weird thing was that the mash thingy started to flicker after my lightning payment was accepted.
