Grow traffic to your GitHub profile w/ GitHub Actions

The secret to popularizing your profile lies in not neglecting any of your side-projects. You know those GitHub projects you haven't touched since 2000. Maybe you don't know, but they often attract traffic, but not finding an appropriate call-to-action, they end up looking at your README and then running away. With the repository I have created, you will be able to keep track of all incoming traffic on each of your projects in one place. This allows you to concentrate on the most popular projects but at the same time to fish out some interesting projects from the bottom that perhaps alone makes a few visits a month.

Take a look at the link at the bottom of the page. Please share it on twitter I put this button that can speed up your work

Also remember to always take care of the social aspect of your projects, see for example how I configured the social card of the project I just released.
