I’m not usually good at celebrating my own achievements; however, last night, Rogueliker had its 1 millionth page view, and I wanted to acknowledge the moment. Not only that, but I wanted to say thanks to every single one of you who has clicked on my website in the last couple of years, especially those of you who have helped me directly in that time – I couldn’t have done it without Kieran and Kinix, in particular.
This little site was originally set up as a safe place to play while I’m recovering from a serious long-term health condition. Several, actually. Regular readers will have noticed that the cadence of updates isn’t always consistent, and my situation has been alluded to in some of my articles. I’m not here to throw a pity party, yet the fact remains that Rogueliker is a part-time project that is intended to serve my therapeutic needs rather than grow into a big, profitable business. That said, I’m not against turning this into something more ambitious.
Earlier this year, when it became clear that there was an appetite for more of my coverage, I put ads on the site, in an attempt to start building a bit of revenue. That journey continues, and maybe one day I’ll be able to turn Rogueliker into a full-time business that makes me a living. For now, though, it’s going to stay close to me, keeping me company as I continue my recovery, and hopefully entertaining all of you as a wonderful added benefit.
Thank you for the clicks. Here’s to the next million.
