Simple Clock Website Earning $20,000+ Per Month

Published September 4, 2023 by Fardeen KhanReviewed and edited by Niall Doherty
Check out vClock, a website that offers 4 simple tools…
Amazingly, SimilarWeb estimates that the site gets 4.6M views per month
vClock is monetized with Google Adsense display ads.
The official Google Adsense calculator estimates the site to be making $200,000 to $600,000 per year (depending on the region) in the Reference category.
So I think it’s safe to say that vClock is earning at least $20,000 per month from those ads
The site has been around since 2016 and has a “domain rating” of 34 (out of 100). It seems to have picked up steam in 2020.
Looks like Programmatic SEO is the secret sauce here
The site ranks for thousands of time-related keywords like…
{City} {Country} timeSet timer for {minutes}Set {alarm} for {time}Holidays in {UK, US, Canada, Australia}They likely built datasets for the above variables (and more), then programmatically created pages optimized for thousands of different keywords
Ranking for all these location- and time-based keywords allows them to capture a ton of search traffic. The 20-year-old domain surely helps as well.
The most impressive thing to me here: whoever started the website in 2016 worked on it for ~4 years before it really started to pay off.
Not many people have that level of foresight and patience
