There are a lot of small websites on the Internet: Interesting websites, beautiful websites, unique websites. Unfortunately they are incredibly hard to find. You cannot find them on Google or Reddit, and while you can stumble onto them with my search engine, it is not in a very directed fashion. It is an unfortunate state of affairs. Even if you do not particularly care for becoming the next big thing, it’s still discouraging to put work into a website and get next to no traffic beyond the usual bots.

    The large free search engines have really gone down the drain recently… Kagi (a paid search engine) also has a small web feature, but it’s really cool that you’re building something that isn’t profit driven. I’ll be sure to share your search engine with my friends!
