I made a public toilet locator app 8 months ago, it got viral multiple times and got an offer $50, I didn't sold. I got another offer at $200 still I didn't sold. And then last week $500 for 50% stake still I didn't sold.
I posted it here and got lots of great suggestions so I followed it, implemented google Adsense and now I earned my first internet money. Currently my earning is 1.5$ . Its a very tiny amount but for me it felt so great! I feel that my hard work pays off and the most important thing is the learning along the way.
PS: Hoping my decision of continue bootstrapping it is right, but will continue to make it right.
After almost 8 months my app start earning my first internet money for my public toilet locator app after declining $500 offer

yoo this is incredible man. you turned down 500 bucks and now you’re making real money from it. that’s the founder mentality right there. the toilet locator app had legs and youre proving it. 1.5 dollars per month might sound small but thats recurring revenue that validates the market. keep stacking and dont stop now.
Congrats on the first dollar, that one always hits different no matter how small the number is. Turning down $500 for 50% is actually a pretty bold call this early, and it makes sense if you believe in the long term potential. One thing worth exploring given you already have viral traction: public toilet locator apps have a very clear local advertising angle, think pharmacies, cafes, or city councils paying for featured placement. AdSense is a solid start but the inventory you have might be worth more than CPM rates suggest.
Link, I need this in my life.
