Memorial Day weekend. Most creators took the day off. Real talk — are you posting today? Drop a 🔥 if you're still on the battlefield.

@G33_Solutions @SimmyData it's still "overnight" success :))

@SimmyData But everyone else just sees the 2.6k in one day and thinks you're suddenly an overnight success... 🥲

Yes I made $2.6k in a day, but this is the real truth. Months and months of nothing 😳 Dedication + Obsession is the only winning formula you ever need

@HuuVanTran DROP

People asked if we’re seeing the recent drop in Pinterest traffic, yep, we are. Even though we still feel lucky that it’s not as dramatic as others are seeing (like 50% down). How’s your Pinterest traffic looking these days?

@Arturkre @alexcooldev But TikTok seems very effective for promoting apps.

@alexcooldev tiktok is the most unstable platform, its also the worst to send traffic to a website. Instagram is way better in everything.

All of my phones are not shadowbanned. When I get 0 views, I just stop posting for 2–3 days, continue scrolling and liking like a normal TikTok user, switch the content, and then post again and it’s okay. 🥴

@dotsokt Can we buy a site that's already in CM but in a different niche and then build it into a new niche?

What your Facebook page journey will ACTUALLY look like after getting the invite (no BS): Month 1: $350 minimum Month 2: $1k finally figuring out your lane​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Month 3: $3k guaranteed with viral content Month 4: $5k mastering the game Month 5: $8k doubling down on what works Month 6: $10k you become unstoppable Month 7: $15k scaling vertically Month 8: $20k + scaling horizontally The only people who fail at Facebook are the ones who quit or the ones who never started in the first place.

@imanonpublisher @InWayneMode Niche

Im going to show you an old-school method to find FB niches that still works better than most modern strategies people are selling today Its outdated. Its simple. And thats exactly why it still prints. Want it for free? → Like and RT → Reply with “NICHE” Must be following to get it via DM

@ShivamD95 @HuuVanTran Same as me. This niche doesn't seem like it can go far. Only good reels can go viral.

@HuuVanTran I have one animal page and FB just refuses to push viral content. I know the content is good but FB jus wouldn't push it. My competitor steals my posts and it goes viral on their page. Very Frustrating! The only format that works for my page is sketch type emotional images.

I made $15,928.88 from 252,594 sessions and Facebook Content Monetization in April 2026. This is now the highest earning month we’ve had in a while, and almost all of the growth came from Facebook CM. Traffic only went from 237K → 252K sessions (~+6%), yet total revenue jumped from $10.4K → $15.9K. The good part: Facebook CM absolutely carried this month. We currently have CM enabled on 3 pages: - one fandom page (~19K followers) - one partnership fandom page (~42K followers) - one animal page: this one is currently on hold while we try to fix a reach ceiling issue (Facebook basically refuses to push its posts further). It’s a very interesting case, and honestly I’m still not sure if we can fix it or not. If anyone has seen something similar or has suggestions, I’m all ears. The two fandom pages alone generated: ~$4,738 ~$5,195 That’s kind of insane considering the page sizes. And nope, we’re still not doing reels. Just photos, stories, hidden lore, news, discussions, TOBI, and “did you know” type content. Basically content people actually want to react to and share. We also stopped creating memes because they’re too time-consuming, and resharing old memes simply doesn’t work anymore. However, starting around the end of April (and now into May), Facebook has clearly changed something on their end. Our reach got cut in half, or even worse in some cases. I’m still monitoring the situation, and if you have any info, I’m all ears (again 🙏). Where the money actually came from in April: - Fandom site (FB traffic + MV ads): $4,658.37 from 138,993 sessions - Home décor site (Pinterest traffic + Ezoic ads): $3,227.95 from 84,303 sessions - Tech site (Organic + Pinterest traffic + MV ads): $918.78 from 28,553 sessions - Smaller sites (Mixed traffic + MV ads): $81.98 from 745 sessions - Amazon affiliates: $93.92 - Facebook CM: $6,947.88 (after partnership shares and US WHT) Total: $15,928.88 A few quick observations: - The fandom site traffic recovered quite nicely from last month. - Decor site RPM is still ridiculously strong. Ezoic generated $3,227.95 from only 77K visits with around $41+ EPMV. - Tech site remains stable and slightly down as expected since nothing new was added to it. - Smaller sites are slowly dying too. Last month was a good month, and I’m grateful for it. However, May has started rough, and there are still no signs of reach recovering back to April levels yet. So wish me luck guys and wishing you strong reach and good luck too 🙏 Would also love to hear how April treated you ;)

@alexcooldev 10% tax for 2026

I agree with this point. Another reason I don’t run ads for my mobile app is that I already have to give up 15%/30% to the App Store, plus around 7% in taxes. If I set up a company, the total tax could go up to about 25%. That means even before ads and maintenance costs, I’m already losing around 22–55% of my revenue. If I add ads and the margins aren’t high, as an indie hacker with no VC or investors like me, I’d probably go bankrupt. So for now, I’m focusing on organic growth, and I’ll save paid ads for my web products. For me, I’d still take a $10k/month project with $9k profit over a $50k/month one with only $5k profit lol. 😌

@imanonpublisher Congrats! In just 3 weeks, with only 185k views, you got an invitation?

Boom! Got the CM invite on this page today! After just 3 weeks of consistent posting. If you do the right things, the CM program invite comes very fast nowadays. Now I’ll start increasing the posting frequency and will keep you updated on how much this page with 10,000 followers can generate.

@itzhorlax @HuuVanTran I think so too. Traffic seems to have started to decline since the Iran war. I also think it's affecting the home decor niche, but look at Van's traffic; he's also in this niche, yet his traffic is very stable. Maybe we've done something Pinterest doesn't like.

@HuuVanTran Sadly, starting to thing this update is against home decor niche..... my following are also losing monthly views

In case you’re wondering how our Pinterest account is doing, here it is. No real uptick, but no dramatic drop either, just flat, maybe slightly down. I feel like Pinterest has been rolling out constant small updates lately, and they’re affecting performance in one way or another. Our team is slowing down a bit on the Pinterest side to focus more on Facebook pages, which are showing better ROI right now. That said, we’re still consistently publishing articles and pins; Pinterest remains a critical traffic source for us. How’s Pinterest treating you these days? Feel free to share below.

@lolalallou @HuuVanTran Same to me, but mine kept decreasing for a whole month

@HuuVanTran this week i have lost 50% of my traffic which is frustrating.. just trying to find out what's wrong and fix it 😅

@TutorCurtis @HuuVanTran @publisherinabox Yes

@dungvumuscle @HuuVanTran @publisherinabox My site too, are you in the home decor niche?

I made $10,457.97 from 237,891 sessions & FB Content Monetization (CM) in March 2026. The good: Traffic only went from 213K → 237K sessions (~+11%), but revenue almost doubled. The difference came from Facebook CM coming back, not from traffic growth. The shift: Facebook CM came back in a big way. We currently have CM on 3 pages: one fandom page, one partnership page in the same fandom niche, and one animal page. The first two pages performed incredibly well, with more than $5K revenue combined (~$1.7K and ~$3.3K respectively). We’re still producing Facebook posts about hidden gems, stories, and news in the niche. No reels. Just photos. No more copyright headaches. In case you don’t know, reels didn’t work for us due to copyright issues. The real change came from how we create content now: each team member manages at least one page and runs it independently, without me approving posts before publishing. This made a huge difference in both my workload and overall performance, since they’re free to test more creatives with my guidance. I still review everything after it’s published. It’s a bit risky, but worth it so far. Looking back, I think I was wrong to take over Facebook posting a few months ago. The team is simply better at it when they have ownership. Where the money actually came from in March: - Fandom site (FB traffic + MV ads): $2,691.05 from 99,119 sessions - Home décor site (Pinterest traffic + Ezoic ads): $3,018.09 from 97,759 sessions - Tech site (Organic + Pinterest traffic + MV ads): $1,042.80 from 36,252 sessions - Facebook CM: $3,512.26 (after US tax deduction and partnership shares) - Smaller sites (Mixed traffic + MV ads): $110.84 from 4,761 sessions - Amazon affiliates: $82.93 Total: $10,457.97 A few quick observations: - Facebook CM is now a major revenue driver. - Decor site remains the top earning site, quite consistent now. - Fandom traffic is still the same as previous months, but revenue held up. - Tech continues to be stable and predictable. This month feels different. Not because traffic is back. But because monetization is working again for us.

@itzhorlax @ThebilalSEO It's the same for me. I've lost over 2/3 of my traffic, and it's still dropping.

@ThebilalSEO Two weeks ago, my traffic got stuck. I thought it was due to Easter content popping up. This week, I started experiencing some drop and yesterday i lost 50% of my outbound clicks

Scaling another Pinterest blog to $100 daily. → 210 articles live → 15 pins daily I've hit this number before multiple times. On different blogs. Different niches. Same PIN POWER methods. The only variable that changes is the niche. The outcome stays the same. Pinterest accounts are money printing machines when you stop guessing and start following a proven system.

@Abdelbassetkha8 @HuuVanTran @publisherinabox I created it almost two years ago but didn't use it much. I only reactivated it about six months ago.

@dungvumuscle @HuuVanTran @publisherinabox How old is your Pinterest account?

@HuuVanTran In your experience, is Medivine stricter about AI-generated content than JourneyMV?

@dungvumuscle Yeah, it seems Ezoic isn't that bad when it comes to RPMs these days. I'm surprised, tbh.

I made $5,592.36 from 213,338 sessions in February 2026. Traffic dropped about 20% compared to January, but revenue only slipped slightly. Not a great month, but honestly it could have been worse. - The “okay” part: Even with traffic falling from 265K → 213K sessions, earnings stayed relatively stable. That tells me RPMs were at least a bit healthier than January’s slump. - The bad part: The fandom site (Facebook traffic) keeps leaking traffic for reasons that aren’t entirely clear. It could be that I’ve been a bit tired lately trying to find the best visuals for our link posts, so we didn’t land any viral posts last month. Or Facebook itself is changing, and what used to work before is losing its magic. For example, AI images used to perform really well for our fandom image posts, they are not now. - The good part: Facebook Content Monetization was still basically nothing in February. However, CM is looking much brighter so far in March, thanks to Facebook’s newer algorithm changes that reward originality. I asked my team to focus only on original posts now (no more reused content), and some of them are already performing really well. Where the money actually came from in February: - Fandom site: $2,112.73 - Home décor site: $2,285.30 - Tech site: $925.77 - Smaller sites: $95.36 - Amazon affiliates: $136.28 - Facebook CM: $36.93 Total: $5,592.36 Traffic breakdown: - Fandom site: 91,257 sessions - Home décor site: 80,883 sessions - Tech site: 34,382 sessions - Smaller sites: 6,816 sessions Total: 213,338 sessions Decor site quietly became the biggest earner for the first time, even with less traffic than the fandom site, thanks to higher RPMs. Tech site stayed very stable, hovering around the same range. This isn’t an exciting report, but it’s one of those months where the system just keeps running. Traffic dips. Algorithms change. Revenue moves around. But the sites still produce cash.
