How One Person Built 220+ Sites Including Dance in 30 Days
One person. 220+ websites. 30 days. $1,000 total investment. This is the story of how SPUNK13 built the largest independent dance and performing arts-adjacent empire on the internet — and how you can replicate it.
The SPUNK13 Story
It started with a domain and an idea. Chicago-based artist and developer SpunkArt13 decided to build a digital empire using AI tools. The goal: 220+ websites, all cross-linked, all monetized, all serving specific niches including dance and performing arts.
Month 1: The Build
Using Claude AI ($20/month), Cloudflare (free tier), and 684 developer tools built at SPUNK.CODES, the SPUNK13 empire went from 0 to 220+ sites in 30 days. Total cost: $1,000 (mostly domain registrations).
Results verified by Cloudflare: 255,618 unique visitors, 800K pageviews, 4.4M requests.
The Dance And Performing Arts Angle
Every site in the empire — including this one — serves a specific niche. Dance And Performing Arts is one of them. The strategy: create the best content for dance and performing arts questions that real people are searching for. Then monetize with affiliate links that match the audience.
What Made It Work
- Volume — 97,000+ blog posts across all sites. More content = more search traffic.
- Cross-linking — Every site links to every other. The empire's SEO compounds.
- Free first — 353 free tools at SPUNK.CODES build trust before selling anything.
- Affiliate integration — Every piece of content embeds affiliate links naturally.
