Zero traffic? It's far from zero traffic. The domain was averaging 1k unique visitors per day before there was even a site from typo's while people were looking for other remote job sites. That's actually what convinced me to finally develop it.

I initially launched it in September but that was more of a soft launch to see if it would be worth my time and the traffic has been increasing. The past 2 days have been a bit higher with this HN post and averaged between 4-5k unique visitors / day.

So you decided to launch a site that has almost a carbon copy of remoteok.io's logo to monetize people's mistakes?

I wouldn't say using the same font for a part of it is "almost a carbon copy" but yeah, that pretty much sums it up. I'll be updating the text form of the branding soon though.

There's an entire industry around that called Cash Parking. There's at least four different remote job sites with similar domains that I receive traffic (and email) for if you'd like to look those up to make some more pointless comments.

Actually...that would be quite interesting.

I recently heard about this racket, did not realise how developed it was. And I find it really amusing. So...please link them too. Not sure why people are so against it? The site you are slightly ripping off is not original.

The activity should be called cheekySEO :)
