@kobyof sent this to me over the weekend so I had some time to fiddle around with it. Really nice job of getting together a lot of inspiring websites. I submitted mine to be featured too. Still waiting to see it live.

Just submitted my site. When can I expect to have it indexed?
Koby Ofek
@samrotenberg I can't say for sure. If it does get indexed it will probably be a few days as I got more than a 100 submissions in the last 24 hours and I review each and every one to make sure it's not spam and that it meets some certain quality level. Doing my best to include everyone as fast as I can.

This made me want to recreate my website. Last one I had was on Geocities!!! LOL

Awesome idea and execution..wanted to ask few things 1)I see many profiles and as you explained how do you get the profiles ...do you add a crawler to get the profiles or manually find and add them 2)There is on demand loading of profiles on reaching bottom is it intended? 3)What tech stack you used to build this. nice collection bookmarking it!!

@rajatrao777 Hey, sorry for the late response. I have been swamped with responses in the last few days. 1 - After finding the profiles manually (or some profiles are submitted), there is a manual review for each website + automatic crawling of the profile site to get meta information like technology used, social network stuff and more. 2 - Of course, it's endless scrolling by design 3 - The production version is currently on vanilla js with mongodb on the background. There is work in progress to shift to react. Thanks for the feedback! Many new features launching soon, so check back to see if you like it.

It was quite a lengthy process. My main sources of inspiration were awards sites, mainly awwwards, cssdesignawards and FWA, but I also searched quite a lot on Dribbble and Behnace, which are design-oriented websites, design magazines, Twitter accounts of webdesigners and others. I also checked to see if makers on this site have personal websites, and I featured some of them. My criteria wasn't especially to include only the best looking personal websites, but to have a variety of styles, services and technologies to see what's actually there and what are people currently doing to design their personal homes on the web.

@kobyof thank you.

Nice idea 🙂 The “Visit Site” button isn’t working on any of the sites for me though (Chrome on iOS).
