It’s a typical 18 hour site launch day and it was actually saner than most. I’m already planning the updates for this site, as well as preparing to launch another site within a week. I thought I’d take you through launch day and into launch night so you get a taste of what it’s like to do this for a living.

I made the jump to a dedicated server farm for some of my blogs, and what could be more fun than load testing the new toy?

I can pay a little bit less for hosting, or I can pay a reasonable fee for excellent web hosting and technical support. I’m not cutting coupons for my website. It’s way too important.

Wow, I got tired of slow server times on my previous host and I’m moving hosts. Right now.
