The hardest part of a new forum is the first hundred real members — everything before that is setup.
I ditched GA for a lightweight self-hosted analytics tool and lost nothing I actually used.
My best-performing affiliate content is honest comparisons, not listicles.
Curious what everyone else here thinks about it.

Self-hosted analytics is so much calmer to work with.
Core Web Vitals compliance took me a weekend and showed results in a month.
I disagree slightly, but I can see where you are coming from.

Charging flat monthly for sponsorships worked better than CPM for my niche.
Comparisons convert way better than reviews for me too.
Interesting — I will have to try that.
Thanks for sharing, saved me a lot of time.
