Not exactly, I think it was a poor choice of words as I was referring to my build/deployment tooling.

If I have an idea (e.g. a "ES2015 to ECMA6" converter), I'd look for a library to do this (if there isn't an open source one, I'd consider building my own as a learning experience).

Setting up the webpage up (converter/form) is trivial since it's really just one page and a few settings.

The really cool part is I've built laravel commands to do the hard work for me. They can:

- buy domains based on a keyword search with some common regex-like patterns

- set up a git hook to continuously deploy to an AWS micro instance via codedeploy/CircleCI

- manage different adsense codes across properties

So, if you're wondering these are things that have utility. I'm optimizing the pains of setting up each site, though.

I do build adservers for a living, but never once have I created a crappy content-farm click-baiting blog -- they are the scourge of the internet >:{

[edit] lastly, I'm not sure if you have a problem with google ads (doubleclick/google publisher network) but I think they're pretty sensible in what they allow... no reasonable person would take issue with that.
