Are You A Full Time Webmaster Or Not?

[Lee]

I know a few of the GWW community members only do webmastering in adult part time but what about the rest of us?

How many hours a week / day do you put into working on your sites and growing your online business?

Regards,

Lee

We're lucky enough to be in a major growth phase right now, so our various projects (boyfunk.com, boysecrets.com, boysfeetclub.com, plus our DVD line) are taking about 50-60 hours/week each for AJ and I, plus about 45 hours of work split between our two part-time staffers.

Of that time, it seems that a lot of it goes to planning and development of new marketing opportunities and relationship building. Of the remainder, it's mostly split between administration, email correspondence, and overseeing the updates, video editing, and other stuff that we've for the most part handed off to our staffers to take care of.

I might as well be 2 full time webmasters given how much time I spend working.

It's 4am and I'm on this board.

That about says it right there.

Man I hear ya...... Last night I intended to go out. But after finishing everything I just decided to go partake that that fine Texas dining experience known as the "Whataburger Drive Thru"

I do this all full time. However, personally I could not work on adult stuff 24/7, which is why I am glad I have some non-adult sites.

I'll be full-time in a couple weeks! I have been part-time for over 2 years and recently I have been averaging about 20 hours a week building AVS sites and maintaining (not counting GWW time and IM'ing).

I'm looking forward to devoting 60 hours a week to building!

Well said brother....count me and RandyBlue's Randy right there with you in the 14 days worth of work in a week club

There is always something to do be done. I tried doing this for the first year part time but the job I had was already about a 60 hour a week job os it was pretty impossible. I did do both for about 4 months and was beat! I am glad I work full time and still about 7 days a week. It takes alot of work but I really enjoy it!

This month I celebrate 10 years in the adult industry and two years running my own sites independantly full time.

Even while I worked for other people, I always had my own stuff going on the side. Thank goddess I did, because when the bottom fell out with outside employers, I always had something to fall back on.

I've been fulltime since 2000, and have 3 direct staff all fulltime as well....

But I only work 9 to 5.

9am Monday to 5pm Sunday.

I've been full time for about 4 years now. Anywhere from 10-14 hours a day. Depending on the project i'm working on.

Same here..it's amazing I'm still sane.
Or at least that's what my friends say..

Since we've been building a house ourselves (going on 3 years now)
we/I've been part time (putting in about 20 or 30 hours a week)

When the house stuff gets too crazy, my hours go down to about 10 hours a week. I get very far behind with my sites and every thing that's happening in the adult industry...not good

In two months though when the house is done to a good point (i.e. we can live in it) I'll be more full time with our sites. YIPPY!!!

I have been full-time since 1998. I usually work 9am to 4pm four days a week. Not over doing it keeps me from getting burned-out.
