Here's a thread about my 2021 in numbers as a content creator making Flutter tutorials and courses. 🧵

Total Revenue: $69,532

Here's a breakdown by month. 👇

Here's a pie chart about revenue by income stream.

80% of total revenue came from sales on Udemy and Teachable.

This year I had $20,660 in expenses.

This is a large number primarily due to outsourcing costs (design & development) on my site.

In 2021, 459K visitors accounted for 658K page-views on my site.

I spent a lot of effort on SEO, and it paid off.

The vast majority of the traffic came from Google search.

My most visited page (about Dart Null Safety) was opened over 50K times.

I have sent A LOT of emails to my subscribers.

Here's all the feedback I collected from them.

I use this feedback to continuously improve new and old content

Between courses, tutorials, website, YouTube, Twitter, my newsletter etc, I spent 1458 hours on my business.

Here's a breakdown:

What are my goals for 2022?

💰 $100K in total revenue
📈 reach 100K monthly unique visitors on my website
📮 Grow my newsletter to 25K subscribers
🐦 More than double my Twitter followers to 25K
📹 Reach 50K subscribers on YouTube

This has NOT been an overnight success!

I started in 2018, and slowly made this my full-time job.

Here's what it took:

- 4100 hours (so far)
- set realistic goals
- not giving up
- continuing to learn and figuring things out along the way

Full retro coming tomorrow. 👍

As promised, here's the full retro with all the details:
