How much time do you invest in your hosting companies?

 

[BlackStorm]

A LOT
I am online around 13 hours most days apart from weekends and most of this time Im doing something related to by hosting site or clients.
I have been spending a lot of time working on the forum of my site recently.
Im trying to build it up, get more active members and find out what I can do so members can get more out of it so they come back.
The forum is now the main part of my site so want there to be a strong community

A good forum is often what makes a person come back to a web page.

 

[BlackStorm]

Yeah and I think a strong community sense in a web hosts site is also good for anyone considering going with a host.
I like forums on sites as I always like my sites to have a community atmosphere, I have a few sites which are only forums.
If a host interacts with their clients through a community forum I think this is also a good sign, I know when I was looking for hosting myself I always checked if there was a forum and what it was like

I am online form 9:00am to 6:00pm then 9:00pm to 2:00am so quite a deal of time invested in hosting and realted projects.

Seeing an active admin on a forum is usually a good sign.

Yea, that's true.

Active administration shows they care about what they are doing.
On alot of forums you never see the management online, just a mod or two.

I normally invest a good portion of time into my web business.

I am online from 8am-5pm then 7pm-10pm Monday - friday
Then also for 2-3 hours on Saturday. Sunday is my day off.

But then of course you gotta remember dreaded cell phone calls!!

Hopefully it will be worth it in a while. Im working on a rather big managed dedicated server deal right now.

So on friday and saturday.... you seem to stop work after 6PM. Do you have a bad drinking habit you would like to talk about??? I think all of us have been there one time or another. I still find myself in that situation.... depends on the ocassion.
