We get a lot of emails from people asking what they need to do to make their sites a success. If there's a magic formula, I haven't heard of it... but if you have, please leave it in this thread! Aside from that, new webmasters can watch as the following people run us through their typical day: HoneLynn from HighDefRiches, Jim from Almighty Content, Dwreck from WebcamCash, Avalanche from CherryPimps, Paul from AdultRental, Vegas Ken from TheBestPorn, She Devil from ThinkPinkOnline, Mario from LoadedCash, Monika from MonikaMaple.com and Elli from Streamray / Cams.com. You will probably hear a lot of what you already know, but maybe, just maybe, there's a little piece of the puzzle that will help you structure your day to create more opportunity for your business.

Some faves:
Dwreck: "I get home at seven, if it's a week day, and do soft marketing... being active on message boards."
Avalanche: "I have a to-do list that is an ongoing list, for months on end."
Paul: "I wake up to my computer turning itself on, a little bit of music and straight into stats. I don't even have to touch the computer. The stats just load and that's the first thing I see every morning."

I'm not sure it qualifies as cool. I was aiming for mildly interesting to a new webmaster. The jury is still out on that one, though ;) hehe

[Doug of Montreal]

Cheers Xentech, Kevin, Dennis ;)

It's funny watching how structured people's days can be when my own, at least on days like today, get thrown out the window before 11am. Some days it just feels like work is a wild ride that I grab, white-knuckled, and hold onto till it slows down. Or at least till I have to hit the gym mid-day to get away from it all, which is right now... ;)

My Day Consists of Basically Masking My Contempt for the Assholes in Charge, And, at Least Once a Day, Retiring to the Men's Room so I Can Jerk off While I Fantasize about a Life That Doesn't so Closely Resemble Hell

very true - many people don't appreciate the small things until they find themselves punching the time clock...

Exactly. Waiting for paint to dry is no fun, nor is trying to get it off your body and out of your hair and eyes (I wasn't the greatest of painters, as you can tell). But I really appreciate the small things now, like getting to take time off int eh middle of the day for the gym or being able to work from home some days or on weekends if I have to take time off during the week.

Still, you need that schedule to keep things moving at a decent pace. Mine, unfortunately, got obliterated today... but there's always tomorrow... and the weekend, right? ;)
