I created a Digital clock called, Flip Clock. It is inspired by a famous social media clock called fliqlo.
I published Flip Clock on 25th December. For the first few days it was getting roughly 100 views a day but on 30th December a major Spanish new site promoted my clock on their website. That gave a full boost and now I'm getting 600 view per day and still counting.
So how a simple clock got so many views?
* This clock solves a problem.
As I said this clock was inspired by fliqlo which is only available for mac
and it is a screensaver. So not many people can use this clock because
of OS limitations. So to solve this problem I created a simple web
version so that it cannot be just accessed by mac but all the devices
from Mobile Phone, Tablets to Linux OS.
* It's simplicity
The clock does only one thing.. Which is to show time 🕛. Plus added a new feature - Light Mode
Lessons
* No problem is small or big,
If you truely solve a problem, you will definitely be rewarded.

Are the views enough? How do you monetize the traffic?

Simple and elegant, Tanmay! Curious about one thing: Does this also somehow prevent the system from going to sleep?
