NICHE WEBSITE
$6M/Year From a Website That Just Unscrambles Words
Type in some scrambled letters, get back real words. That's the entire product.
It's called WordUnscrambler.me, and it gets around 8 million visitors a month – mostly people cheating at Scrabble and Words With Friends 👀
Ramesh Jha, a solo developer in Bihar, India, built it as a weekend project back in 2014…
I created this website as a fun weekend project in 2014. Now, it has become one of my main web projects – serving millions of users each month.
Revenue via Google display ads. No products, no content, no audience to maintain.
Estimates of what it earns range from around $1M to $6M a year, depending on whose ad-rate math you trust. Either way: life-changing money from anagrams 🤯
The wholesome part? Ramesh funds a non-profit and a free public library in his village with the profits.
He runs a dozen of these simple tool sites too – a scrabble finder, a syllable counter, a port checker – pulling 17M+ monthly visitors combined 📈
You don't need to clone his exact site. Pick a boring, evergreen utility – a niche calculator, converter, or generator – build it fast with AI and monetize it with display ads.
RUN CLUBS
3 Ways to Cash In on the Social Club Boom
Run clubs are booming. Strava says participation jumped 59% in a single year 📈
The standout is Lunge Run Club in NYC. It grew from about 30 people to close to 1,000 a week in one summer.
Rachael Lansing, who runs it, says...
We're basically a social run club. We do a 3-mile run or a 1.5-mile hot walk.
How do you make money from a run club?
Three ways 👇
1. Funnel them somewhere. Lunge Run Club feeds Lunge, a dating app that matches people who work out together. The runs are free. The app is the business 👀
2. Land brand sponsors. Fulton (insoles) sponsors several NYC clubs...
about 20% to 30% of members will buy a pair of insoles after the event
Hoka, Vuori and Alani play the same game.
3. Charge for membership. Marina Run Club in San Francisco charges $30/month just to belong – members get the weekly runs, exclusive events, and local discounts.
Start a free club around something you love – doesn't have to be running – grow the crowd, then pick your angle 💪

$7K/Month Giving Food Tours on Airbnb Experiences
Got local knowledge? Package it into a guided experience on Airbnb and you keep 80% of every booking 👀
Kendra runs food tours near Amish Country in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Four years in, she reckons a good host can clear $7K/month.
The real money is in group size – and chasing the bigger gigs 🧐
The difference between making $65 because you had a couple people, or $500, $600, $700 because you had several… or hosting corporate events for local universities and hospital staff, is making thousands of dollars.
And at the top end, it gets wild.
A taco-and-mezcal night crawl in Mexico City has 2,536 reviews at $78 a head – close to $200K in bookings, counting just one spot per review 🤯
Pick something you know – your neighborhood, a cuisine, a craft – and list it on Airbnb 🔥
