Whats the best thing about being a webmaster in your view? For me it's going some where like the internet cafe and seeing people on your website, it is a great feeling!
Do you own eBay? What are the chances of walking into a local internet cafe and seeing someone on your site? They have to be a million to one.
lol This gives me a great idea. From now on every time I go to an internet cafe I will set the home page on all computers to my site.
I always change the homepages at GCI the local cable company whenever I go there to pay my bill.... which is now the only way I pay it for that reason alone. It's amazing how many people go there on a daily basis and use those computers. I've gained a lot of new users in this method. I also use the library, put up backgrounds on the computers at Circuit City, Wal Mart, Sears, etc... hahaha
I can work when I want. I don't have to call in if I am sick. I don't have to schedule off days...though I do anyway.
I goto sleep late, Wake up late. I dont have to lift boxes, I dont have to smile while giving you food. I dont have to kiss ass or F@*# my boss in the @&# for a promotion, or to keep my job. I didnt have to get a medical degree or wear a suit to live a really good life.
Chances are very few. But, I launched a local website around 4 years back. It was a community website for chat, classifieds, mail and other info about the city. I could see people in local cafes logged onto my website. It was good to see.
Making money for yourself instead of some stupid, piece of trash corporation that underpays you and treats you like trash. Thats what I find appealing about being a webmaster.
My website gets around 60k unique hits a day, 90 odd percent from uk. It was just a random event, I'm sure it won't happen again but meh!
