About Andrew I develop and build branded internet properties. Despite a red hot acquisitions market and billions of investor capital flowing back into the post-bubble (1.0?) web countless profitable opportunities remain. Commoditized human knowledge labor combined with dirt cheap processing power and bandwidth are leading to a "paradigm shift" or perhaps a "singularity." Eager to keep up with these changes (along with selfish personal reasons) I write this blog. |

I’ve made my vote although I’m very surprised that option is so popular

Based on the poll, looks like you’ve got the right audience Andrew.

I had done web publishing as a sideline “business” for years and then one day I’d had enough of my boss and couldn’t take anymore of cubical land. I quit my real job and decided to focus my efforts on my “hobby” business. I soon found I was able to turn my business into a real going concern. Four years later, I have absolutely no regrets about quiting my job and striking out on my own.

Still working on the full-time thing. I just wish I would have known what I know today about 4 years ago. But I hope to be where I want to be in 12-18 months.

Not a problem, everyone starts at “No.” The number of business opportunities out there right now put every other time in human history to shame.
I would suggest that you get a better web host, and try a market other than making money online. Here are a few older posts I suggest:

Also, a ton of excellent in-depth articles over at http://www.websitepublisher.net/

I own my online business but if my wife did not work we could not make ends meet.
