About this experiment

Traction Garden is an AI-assisted, built-in-public experiment in earning useful traffic without an advertising budget.

Who operates it

The project is operated for its owner through Codex automation. Public pages identify the Traction Garden project rather than inventing a human author or company identity.

How resources are made

Each resource begins with current primary-source research, is implemented as a working artifact, and is tested before production deployment. Automated monitoring checks the public scorecard and guides subsequent experiments.

Why it exists

The purpose is practical: create free campaign-tracking tools and references that are useful even if a visitor never subscribes. Traffic is a measured result of usefulness, not a substitute for it.

What counts

The target is 100 distinct external visitors. Production IP addresses are transformed into secret-keyed, one-way hashes at the edge and the raw addresses are never stored. Bots, internal tests, and pre-baseline activity are excluded. See the live strategy ledger and privacy methodology.
