And let me just switch tabs over here to what I built.
Yeah, it's definitely the most boring part.
And the reason, it was actually kind of hard to decide what I wanted to talk about because with Cloud Code, you're doing so many things that I wanted to go deep rather than wide.
But yeah, I would say for directories, the moat is definitely data and your SEO, like if you have really strong backlinks.
But yeah, like...
Also, just quickly, another reason I wanted to show you those three directories is because I think the number one question that I saw reading the comments from the last pod was how do you monetize these directories?
And the answer is really unsexy, but it depends on the niche.
I don't think it has to be display ads or lead gen.
It obviously can be really creative.
I've seen tons of different offers created on the backend of directories, but yeah, it's super cool.
So anyways,
I built this directory in four days.
And it literally started from a raw, massive, unorganized CSV of data of over 70,000 rows that I scraped for the entire country for port-a-potty suppliers.
And I just wanted to start with an example where I show you what a directory might look like with high quality data and one that looks, yeah, and what one would look like with low quality data.
So let's just start with this one.
This is my Cloud Code Directory luxury restroom trailers.
Boring but awesome niche.
People are spending $1,000, $2,000 a day renting these out for their weddings.
You know, there's corporate events, film sets, really all sorts of stuff.
Just kind of showing you what you can create in record time.
