Launching my first toy project : 10K No-Code Challenge!
Launching my first toy project, how I got the idea, how to use it
Hello everyone!👋 Swaraj here.
Welcome to weekly update #4 of the 10K No-Code Challenge, a challenge that I’ve set up for myself to build tiny toy projects using no-code tools like bubble.io etc, launch them fast (in days and not in months) and go from $0 to $10K per month.
Today I’m launching my first tiny toy project, Newslettersboard.com!🥳
Things I’ll talk about in today’s update:
What does my new toy project do and what are its features?
How did I get the idea to build this toy project?
What does my new toy project do and what are its features?
Newslettersboard is a leaderboard for newsletters.
You can enter details like logo, link, name, author name etc of your newsletter.
You can pay what you want to secure your spot on the leaderboard. ($1+)
Your payment is your score! The more you pay, the higher your newsletter ranks.

How did I get the idea to build this toy project?
The inspiration for this idea came while I was reading an article written by Marc Köhlbrugge on how he made $2,251 in 1 day with Highscore.Money. He wanted to combine the idea of highscore with money and I liked that idea.
It’s the ultimate pay-to-play game and a nice status symbol. What you pay, is your score. The more you pay, the higher your score. It’s a ridiculous idea, but it might just work. Worth a shot so I quickly built it that day.
But, I didn’t want to build the exact same thing as Marc did and neither I wanted to build something super complex as I am just starting out. This is when I saw a tweet from Katt where she was talking about how she made a simple directory of best practices for newsletters and how she will make money from it.
I curated 100 best practices from the biggest newsletters and turned it into a directory without a line of code in < 1 day.
Read on to learn how I made it and how I will make money with it.🍿
