Hey fellow hacker! 👋 Bug hunting often feels chaotic — hundreds of subdomains, unknown endpoints, tools everywhere. I’ve been there too. But after countless hours in the trenches, I’ve refined a step-by-step bug hunting methodology that helps me find bugs faster and easier without burning out.

In this blog, I’ll share my framework, complete with real-world commands you can copy and try. Let’s dive in! 🚀

Before you run any tool, ask:

✅ What problem does this application solve?
✅ Who are its users?
✅ What data does it handle?

Understanding the business logic helps you find bugs that scanners miss — like broken access control or payment flaws.

👉 My practice:

• Create a mini mind map on paper or in XMind.
• Sketch out features: login, profile, payment, file uploads, admin panels.
• List roles: guest, user, admin.

This “map” becomes my bug radar for the entire engagement. 🧭
