I am scratching my head on how you are making $20k/month on this. Are that many people searching for “how to convert my text to uppercase”? and other variations. Can you explain where the majority of your traffic is coming from.

Exactly it, over 2 million vists a month, mostly coming from organic searching for text conversion, etc

Great inspiration. I like that the website solves a simple problem very well and makes a lot of money doing it.
