Hmm.. Thought I already did this but I don't see it here.

Hello everyone.

I started a web hosting business in the basement of my home in 1997 and over the years it has grown to the point where we had to move it to a datacenter (AC equipment and generator were too noisy for the neighbors) I hope to learn what I can about marketing because I’m the tech guy and marketing has always been my weak point.

I've been running shared hosts, reseller accounts and dedicated servers for many years and would be happy to answer any questions that anyone has on the topic in exchange for what you people can teach me.

13 years in the hosting sector, that's great!

How many clients have you gained over the years?

Welcome!

We have collected several thousand over the years without doing any real advertising. Like I said, I'm a tech guy.

I used to have this monster in my basement but it got to the point where the noise of all the equipment was being heard throughout the house and we were starting to get visits from the cops who were thinking that we were growing dope or something (because of the power bills)...
