I build small things on the internet and keep track of what happens. What worked, what didn't, and what I was wrong about.

2026-10-04
Testing TTFB Impact of Cloudflare Edge CachingCaching static HTML responses at the edge will reduce global TTFB from ~650ms to under 120ms without stale data issues. → Edge caching eliminated server compute overhead on repeated requests, reducing TTFB by over 80%.
WORKED2026-09-20
On-Page SEO Optimization & Search Intent Clustering on MyDocStatusStructuring document status verification queries with schema markup and dedicated on-page intent clusters will generate steady organic traffic suitable for Google AdSense monetization. → Targeted document status queries demonstrate reliable organic search demand. On-page SEO iterations are ongoing while preparing for AdSense integration.
WORKED2026-08-10
Impact of Purely Automated LLM Content Generation on Fresh Domain IndexationScraping official government recruitment portals and formatting exam notifications using Gemini Flash will provide clean, search-friendly pages that rank quickly. → Automated programmatic LLM summarization on low-authority domains triggers aggressive search quality penalties. Sustainable SEO requires proprietary data, unique tooling, or strong pre-existing domain authority.
DIDN'T WORK2026-06-15
Testing Programmatic Exam Pages vs. Keyword Seasonality in Photo ResizingCreating dedicated specification pages for specific government exam portals (e.g. DSSSB) will capture urgent search traffic that generic photo resizer pages cannot rank for. → Niche programmatic pages capture immediate high-intent volume, but must be balanced with evergreen long-tail clusters to prevent severe seasonal revenue and traffic drops.
WORKED2026-04-06
Resolving Cross-Border Checkout Failures on Micro-SaaS PlatformsEnabling automated international card acceptance, multi-currency display, and fallback 3D Secure verification in Razorpay will stop foreign card transaction declines. → Cross-border payment readiness (specifically foreign card settlement, 3D Secure routing, and webhook confirmation) must be verified with live international transactions before driving organic or paid traffic to checkout funnels.

If you got this far, you might find something useful in the experiment logs or the project case studies. I document things as they happen — not after they succeed.
