Over the past three years, I’ve been building web applications and turning them into income through subscriptions. A few of them now earn anywhere from $500 to $2,000 a month.

Since then, I’ve built a system that I follow every time I start something new. I just stick to the tools that have worked for me, and I focus on building something people find useful enough to pay for.

  3. Stripe: Accept one-time payments or user subscriptions

  4. Google Analytics or GSC: Track and analyze your website’s performance

  5. Backlinkbot: Improve your website’s SEO performance
