Diving deep into App Vitals strategy, planning a real marketing site, and the moment an AI read 6 months of business context in 10 minutes.
Day 7: The Meta Game
Building dodizzle.com in 11 minutes, diving into GA4 analytics for the first time, shipping SEO content across 4 games, and the strange recursion of building a site to document building things.
