Roadmap

Last updated: 2026-02-02 04:42 UTC · Version: roadmap-v4

Goal: a clean, Apple-like “daily utilities” hub that actually works on mobile and can grow via SEO + sharing. Everything stays legal: headline digest is link-only; data sources are reputable; we avoid scraping/copyright issues.

Current status (today)

UI: Apple-like homepage ✅

Headlines: RSS → link-only digest ✅

Visitor counter: privacy-friendly ✅

APIs: server-side /goodtoknow/api/* ✅

Games: paused → rebuilding on server-cached APIs ⏳ (next)

Phase 1 — Reliability (complete)

✅ Server-side data fetching under /goodtoknow/api/* (crypto/stocks/weather/FX) to avoid CORS + mobile failures.
✅ Privacy-friendly visitor counter via /goodtoknow/api/hit.
✅ Headline digest: RSS → titles + sources + outbound links only.
✅ Restore legacy root site / (old index.php) while keeping /goodtoknow separate.

Phase 2 — SEO pages (done)

Make pages that Google can index and that people can share. This is what brings steady traffic.

✅ Dedicated HTML pages per city/coin/ticker/pair (not just SPA):
✅ Auto sitemap expansion as we add pages: /goodtoknow/sitemap.xml
✅ Daily digest pages: /goodtoknow/digest/ (date-based)
🔴 Decide: UK-focused vs Global defaults (feeds, cities, tickers).

Phase 3 — Models (in progress)

Tools people bookmark and share. These are safe + legal and create evergreen SEO pages.

✅ DCA calculator: /goodtoknow/models/dca/
✅ Mortgage / loan calculator: /goodtoknow/models/mortgage/
✅ Budget planner: /goodtoknow/models/budget/
✅ Retirement / SWR calculator: /goodtoknow/models/retirement/
🔴 Decide: display currency (GBP vs USD vs both). (Calculations are currency-agnostic.)

Phase 4 — Games (engagement)

Games must rely on our own server-cached data so they never show blank on phones.

⏳ Rebuild “Price Guess” game using /goodtoknow/api/crypto/BTC (no direct CoinGecko calls in browser).
⏳ Add streak + score (optional, can be stored locally in browser first).
⏳ Add “Market quiz” (daily 3 questions based on cached prices/headlines).

Phase 5 — Growth loop

✅ Better OpenGraph/Twitter cards for sharing (favicon + OG image + meta tags).
⏳ Newsletter opt-in (double opt-in).
⏳ Lightweight analytics (privacy-friendly) to see what people use.
⏳ Directory submissions (manual): Product Hunt, HN, relevant subreddits (using share kit).
