$6400 Last Month From His Product Hunt Alternative

📝 From a recent interview on Indie Hackers…

Thomas Sanlis built a product directory years ago and put it on autopilot while it brought in an easy $2k/mo. But then, he saw an opportunity: Dissatisfaction with Product Hunt was growing.

So he pivoted the directory into a product launch platform. Now, Uneed is bringing in nearly $7k/mo.

Looks like Thomas launched the site in mid-2020 🚀

Uneed’s numbers from a recent month (source)…

👪 29,000 unique visitors
📈 145,000 pageviews
🖱️ 8,200 visitors redirected to product websites
💰 $6,400 revenue

Thomas talks in the interview about monetizing via…

• A “skip the line” option
• Paid product reviews
• Sponsors (eg. on homepage sidebar)

What other popular sites or platforms do see people becoming dissatisfied with? 🤔

Could you build a simple alternative and cash in?
