(This is not a technical post. I’ll do that next.)
I now host about 15,000 pages on my home computer. Most of these are pages that I’ve written, but many are created programmatically.
I started blogging when the WWW first appeared in the early 90s. I created one long page and kept on adding to it. When Blogger.com appeared I switched over to it. When WordPress appeared I switched over to WordPress.
For 30 years I kept adding to my websites. I kept four blogs and added to them several times a month. I had CThreePO.com where I collected information about writing Science Fiction. I had JT30.com where I collected information about playing harmonica. I had HarpAmps.com where I collected amplifier information. I then created a website called IDI0T.com where I wrote about programming. I switched that over to BlogsEye.com which I used for an online novel, but I abandoned that project. I never liked the name idi0t.com so I flipped over to BlogsEye.
I am seriously thinking about compiling information from CThreePO.com into a book called “Help in Writing Science Fiction”. Most of it is written already. All I would have to do is organize it and reformat it. It would be lots of work, but I think I might make a few hundred bucks off of it.
My web server is getting about 200 unique users per day and a few thousand pages. Some of these are robots scanning every page in a domain. Some of these are web scrapers and I find copies of my websites running on servers in Russia or Eastern Europe. I have to fix up my access rules tokeep these actions to a minimum.
It feels good to be back in the web business. I have WestNyackHoney.com running on a server. It is a WordPress blog. On the same domain I have a chicken blog and a beekeeping blog, but both have been abandoned for 10 years.
I also act as Web Master for TuxedoHighway.com which is Larry’s band site. In addition I have the domain TragicBabylonPublishing.com. This is for an anthology project that seems to have failed. I sold them a story, but was never paid. I’ve moved it over to a free blogger account, but I still pay for the domain. I’ll renew the site one more time and then I will inform the editor that it will die soon.
I have to put WestNyackHoney.com on the server and then I can stop paying for my web host, a savings of about $200 per year.
