2025 Year-End Review: From a Small Idea to a Solid Institution – Thank You, Community!

As 2025 draws to a close, I find myself sitting in front of my screen with a wide grin and a healthy dose of humility. What originally started as a simple "just-for-fun" project to share my passion for the world of Rammstein and Till Lindemann has reached a dimension this year that I never thought possible.

LIFAD.WORLD has "grown up." And that is entirely thanks to you.

2025 in Numbers: A Year of Records

I’ve taken a close look at the Google statistics for this year. Considering that there is no agency and no marketing budget behind this site, these numbers feel almost surreal to me:

• Total Clicks: You clicked on LIFAD.WORLD over 46,900 times in 2025.
• Impressions: Our content was displayed a total of 629,000 times in search results.
• Click-Through Rate (CTR): At 7.5%, our CTR is well above the average for standard websites. This shows me one thing: you are finding exactly what you’re looking for here.

Passion That Costs – But Is Worth Every Cent

One point that is particularly close to my heart is transparency. While many sites today are overloaded with flashing ads and affiliate links, LIFAD.WORLD remains a "clean zone."

Running the platform (domain, server, and storage space) currently costs me approximately €110 per month. That is over €1,300 per year, which I pay 100% out of my own pocket. Why? Because I want this project to remain authentic. There are no advertisements, no paid articles, and no flood of tracking scripts. It is a project by a fan, for fans.

When Fun Becomes Serious

I have to admit: the original plan was very different. "Write a bit of news, share a few pictures," I thought. But through your steady support and the enormous growth, it became clear to me that LIFAD.WORLD now carries a certain responsibility.

The community is growing, the inquiries are becoming more professional, and the content is getting deeper. This year was the turning point where a "fun project" evolved into a serious mission. I am more than happy to accept this challenge for 2026!

My BIG Thank You to YOU

Without your daily visits, your comments, and your trust, the curve in these statistics would be nothing but a flat line. You are the engine of LIFAD.WORLD. The fact that we have grown so strong together without selling out to the advertising industry makes me incredibly proud.

Thank you for an unforgettable 2025. See you next year—bigger, better, and just as passionate.
