Reply To: 0 to 10k organic clicks/month in 5months, indie game, no ads, what would you do next?

I’d probably avoid rushing monetization until you know what behavior is strongest. 10k clicks and 60 signups/day is enough to start learning from users, not just SEO metrics.

My next move would be improving activation and retention before chasing 20k clicks. Find out how many people come back, invite friends, finish a game, share drawings, etc. If that loop is weak, more traffic just leaks out.

For monetization, maybe test something light that does not hurt the core fun. Cosmetic upgrades, private rooms, or supporter perks feel less risky than ads right away. Also, if you’re sitting at positions 6-8 for main keywords, tightening those pages could be a big win without changing the whole strategy.
