Re:How We Bootstrapped a $20K Website into a $4M/year Busine... by mkbrody on Wednesday April 17, 2013 @05:14PM (#5567307)
Hello Marcamillion, without going into too many specifics about our numbers we actually get a lot less than 30k unique visitors per month. However, 80% of our business is from repeat customers and our customer retention numbers are very strong. This is the core of our business and how we plan to grow. We have done basically zero off-line marketing.

If this is truly done with zero offline marketing, then I stand corrected. It's indeed impressive that non-techie bootstrappers accomplished this.
