One reason my web traffic statistics are public is to demonstrate why having a
website might not be worth your while. Sometimes I'm asked to make a
website/application but the person asking is none the wiser on Internet trickery
and deception.

You think you want a website, but what you're really looking for is marketing
(network effects) for your product or skill set. It's great when a sad ending is
averted.
