The requirement is that the website should be created in the past year. That cancels out all those small websites (with no ads) that were created before social networks became dominant.

I wonder if you will be happy when you small website will be rewarded as you may suddenly get a lot of traffic resulting in either becoming unavailable due to heavy traffic or forced on a more costly plan by the ISP. That is one reason why I am hesitant to post links here to my private website.

Yeah, the date requirement of deployment in the last year is oddly strict vs their target audience of slow calm websites.

There's a renaissance of interest in sites like this though. So - speculating - maybe they're trying to highlight that, what's new in the genre?
