What is the point of the dedicated vulnerability marketing websites? Like, for real, why do people buy a domain, configure dns, design a full webpage, setup some server somewhere?

Is there some secret world I don't know about that's driven by how banger your vulnerability disclosure presentation is? Every one anymore has a full site. Is this what it takes to get attention these days? Everything, including computer bugs, needs a marketing campaign? Every time I see these sites I roll my fucking eyes at how ridiculous it is that people keep making them, but it seems to only be increasing in occurances.

Can someone explain this to me because I feel like I'm missing something. Just feels like peak consumerism and attention economy bs that shouldn't be needed imo, but I hope I'm missing some crucial thing that makes these valid
