I got tired of hunting forums, PDFs, and random “free backlink lists.”

Many people don’t build a business.
They build a brand “like everyone on X”.
Problem: your brand can’t pay rent
if nobody knows what they pay you for.
Can you clearly say what people pay you for?

Boring content that works:
- “X vs Y vs Z” comparisons
- “Best X for [very specific use]”
- “Checklist before you do X”
Monetization: affiliates, leads, SaaS trial links.
What’s one market where choices confuse even you?

My boring idea checklist:
- Will this still be needed in 5 years?
- Are people already paying for it now?
- Can I work on this 3 years without puking?
If at least 2 “yes” → go.

Most people don’t want a boring business.
They want a story:
“Quit job, went from 0 to 1M in 1 year.”
But rent is paid by invoices, not by stories.
Are you working more on your story or on your invoices?

“I want startup freedom.”
Cool.
My freedom came not from startups,
but from boring sites with ads and affiliates.
One stable boring business beats 5 “rockets” stuck in Figma.
How many rockets are parked in your Figma right now?

3 boring business ideas you’ll ignore:
Niche calculators (mortgages, calories, tax, ROI)
“How much does X cost in CITY” pages
“Templates for industry Y” (contracts, emails, SOPs)
Pick one and build 10 ugly pages.
Then look at search console.

Consider recurring pain points:
– "Opening hours and prices" for local services
– "Which document do I need for X?"
– "Which tool is best for the Y industry?"
Transform these into: comparison pages + forms + ads/affiliate links.
What question do friends repeatedly ask you?

Indie hacking is basically:
learn → ship → be embarrassed → learn → ship again.
If nothing you ship feels a bit embarrassing in 6 months, you’re too slow.

How I test a boring business idea:
– 3+ competitors exist
– they’ve survived for years
– their sites look ugly and boring
That’s not a red flag.
That’s a sign: “money lives here”.
Are you avoiding competition or learning from it?

Shiny Object Syndrome has killed more indie projects than "competition" ever has.
Every new tool, niche, or trend can seem like salvation. However, it's often just a way to avoid the hard work required on your current project.
