So, as promised, the first in a series of posts that consider which website ideas could potentially be successful, even without Google traffic!
Niche Website: Home Coffee Bar & Budget Barista
What this is: A helpful site that shows people how to build a small coffee station at home, make great drinks, and keep costs sensible.
Why this is a good idea
- People love turning a corner of their kitchen into a mini café. It’s cute, useful, and makes mornings nicer.
- Lots of us drink coffee at home every day, so practical “how to” guides get read and saved.
- Pinterest is full of “coffee bar” searches and ideas. Pins last a long time there, so one good post can bring visitors for months.
Why Pinterest helps
- It’s visual. A photo of a tidy 60-cm coffee nook or a simple syrup card gets saved quickly.
- People use Pinterest to plan and shop. Your boards can double as checklists.
- One post can become multiple pins: a quick before/after, a product list, a recipe card.
Your 10 topic areas (easy website structure)
- Product tiers: Good/Better/Best setups at different budgets
- Beans & grinding: Freshness, grinder basics, simple tips
- Milk & texture: Frothing without a machine (and with one)
- Syrups & mix-ins: Quick recipes + storage labels
- Iced & cold drinks: Flash-chilled, cold brew, shaken, creamy toppers
- Small-space layouts: 45–90-cm stations, cable/water-safe layouts
- Styling & storage: Canisters, trays, mug trees, labels, tidy counters
- Cleaning & care: Descaling, filters, water quality, longer-lasting products
- Budget builds: $100, $200, $300 shopping lists with upgrade paths
- Fix-it guides: Bitter, sour, weak, foamy—what went wrong and how to fix it

Simple extras that make this grow faster
- Free downloads:
Drink recipe cards, a cleaning schedule, a bean log, and a one-page “$100 product list.” - How to earn:
Affiliate links to products and beans, a low-cost printable pack (labels + recipe cards), later on: sponsored beans or equipment once traffic builds.
Pinterest routine:
For every post, make 5 static pins (clear title on the image). Name boards by outcomes: “Budget Coffee Setups,” “Milk Foam at Home,” “Iced Coffee Recipes,” “Coffee Bar Styling,” “Cleaning & Maintenance.”
So, there you have it, hope this has sparked some ideas for you!
Hey Diane!
Thanks for sharing, look forward to the next post.
I'm finally coming around the Pinterest marketing, especially considering that in my niche it should be easy enough - photography related niche.
Now, I don't know who decided to send out emails, but so glad you did!
I completely fell off the grid and was off pretty much all platforms, struggling to turn the websites around.
Missed you guys, and will try to check and engage on DMC more often! 
Hey, nice to see you again! Andy is sending the emails, let's hope more people come back and help build this community.
@diane It was definitely a good idea. I'll try to be more active here, and those emails will be a good reminder!
Great to follow. Even so I am very unactive here, as on other places, I takes period to see what you are doing.
But must admit that the attack of Google 2023 stopped my energy for the sites completely after it started working, very little but steady by steady, after big works.
Good luck all of you and I will come and see how you are doing!
I liked the idea we talked about the other day in private Di 🙂 . By coïncedence, we went to a special wedding today , and instead of the couple going to church to get married, we all went to the forest, where they had a 'Celtic priest (female)' perform some kind of Celtic ritual to bond the couple and give them 'forces of nature', that was pretty cool to see and beautiful. It was his second wedding, so I guess no more church wedding anyway hahaha. Think it could be succesful on Pinterest something like that. 'witches, nature religion, Celtic rituals, moon , sacred places, etc..)
@ohnoo_not_her Wow, this is strange. Unless their religion talks about sacred groves and other natural shrines
What people believe naturally has the most to do with where they get married.
Except if they get married at a magistrate's office which they can do, at least here in Iceland, although it is believed.
The national religion here in Iceland is Protestant but it is possible to get married with a priest even if it is outside, so maybe I am misunderstanding that part.
Protestants come in second, but then the Viking religion is number 3. When people get married, it is not unlike that.
Of course, there are various versions of weddings among us Protestants here in Iceland. For example, I know of women who married themselves in a church in Italy. I hope you don't run into problems with your relationship if you marry yourself because divorce could be difficult to enforce!
I have also heard of women getting married in white even though they are getting married for the second time. Mine was actually half in white, was divorced, but it works because she was not 100% in white.
Maybe I am misunderstanding this, I was just so surprised when I read this. Because faith matters so much how you do this, also with those who believe that they do not believe.
