Rank your best SEO marketing win:
Serendipitously, in the months before that, I had been working on a content idea for a site called Lawsuit.org, owned by Fractl. The goal was to come up with something interesting and newsworthy. I realized through some Fractl work that my local county has a database of all arrest and traffic stop records.
We undertook a large scraping project to gather all the data we could from Palm Beach County, looking at police activities, anomalies, and if certain officers had disproportionately high arrest rates of African American people. While we found some anomalies, nothing was super groundbreaking. However, it proved that you could scrape a county's police data and identify potential issues.
I published this on Hacker News, Reddit, and other platforms. The content did really well, especially on Reddit, likely due to its coincidence with the George Floyd situation. People were looking for tangible ways to contribute.
I suggested on Reddit the idea of doing this for every county, not just Palm Beach County.
The Reddit post went viral, leading to a Slack group where about 2,500 people joined in a few days. It self-organized from there, with little input from me after the first few weeks, turning into a community. A law firm helped turn it into a nonprofit, which received $250,000 in funding.
