Daily life of a digital nomad: accepting tasks and blogging with zero visits

Random Notes

Aren’t there 8 submodule themes before?

I found that I haven’t written a blog for 2 days, and there are too many tasks to organize. I don’t need a theme at all

Those themes are only thought about and recorded when there is no content

Okay, start to recall some content

Open source image creation software

Local exe software PhotoDemon.exe (open source and free)

I didn’t read the instruction document, so I searched for a long time to set the text size, but didn’t see the option

In addition, I wanted to draw a rectangle with a white background and add text in the middle, but found that there seemed to be no such function

I can only say that free ones are easy to use, and the really useful ones are commercial software (pay attention to font copyright

Task order

The main task is to deploy frp and set up intranet penetration

I received 2 orders in two days, each order is very small, now I just use it to practice, when there are more business, then increase the unit price and other ways to make money

For example, blog advertising, selling my own courses, and vps commission promotion, these will be added later

The most important thing is that I can do paid promotion on the software, a small amount of money will be displayed thousands or tens of thousands of times

After the task is completed, the money will be credited immediately and can be withdrawn immediately, which is much better than the next day, when it reaches $100, and the second month

Technical Solution

I didn’t learn about remote office, remote networking, etc.

Now when I take orders, I need to use frp, nginx, dns parsing, ssl certificate setting, pm2 process daemon setting

And remote desktop, ssh, scp and terminal editing nano, vi, shell script writing

The most interesting thing is that the users are graduate students, cloud phone players, and home nas users of various roles

The machines for deploying frp are also strange, a soft router, an Android and Linux custom system SYFOS, a normal server with a 4090 graphics card, but a very old ubuntu server16.04 system

If there is no ai, no chatgpt, many problems cannot be solved

Then I learned about WireGuard, ZeroTier / Tailscale and other network-related content

$10 per day

With the task orders, as long as I take a few orders every day

plus the advertising income from YouTube

theoretically, I can quickly realize my wish of making $10 a day

so that I have more time to research and organize ways to make money online

Blog 0 traffic

It’s been 2 days, and there’s not a single visitor

There are only some crawlers and advertisers checking

It’s been 2 months, and Google search engine still doesn’t give traffic

But it doesn’t matter, I don’t expect to make money from Google ads, and I don’t expect Google to give traffic

The more seriously I write, the less traffic I get, the algorithm is like this, it’s better to write according to your own ideas, whether there are visitors depends on luck

Image compression

The default size of a mobile phone photo is about 5M

Screenshots are also about 1M

If you want to upload a blog, you need to compress the image to the extreme, which can speed up the blog loading speed and reduce storage space

So I usually use Google’s open source free application to process it

squoosh

Generally set the image to 800px, and control it to about tens of kb after compression

Tips

That’s what I want to say

If you don’t record it in time, you will definitely forget it

I remember that I had a lot of things to sort out yesterday

But today, I only have less than 10% of my memory

However, in order to ensure the success of the first order, I didn’t eat on time and didn’t rest well in the past two days. I hope it will get better.
