Are you really a webmaster?

[bmoeller]

To be honest 99 out of 100 people are not ..
I work tech support at a hosting company and have to deal with tickets all day.
Most of them are stupid install errors or just simple syntax errors that take 2 seconds to trouble shoot. Hell even stupid permission erorrs.

Before you go and host a site PLEASE learn the Basics of the language your script is running for example PHP.
Think about it. When your site fucks up do you really want to depend on a ass hole like me to fix it?

Any idiot can register a .com and install a script on your rented server.

THERE IS ALOT MORE INVOLVED THO.
So sit back and learn some shit instead of depending on others

When you can run your site without the support of other you will then be considered a webmaster.

THE only time you should contact others is when you dont have certain permission to do a needed task. Even tho this can be avoided by full access to a dedicated or VS

I don't think you should be one to complain, after all you are depending on the inability of others for money.

I used to be. I used to run a business (a real one, not I run a hosting 'company' and I'm 13 years old hosting under 50 sites) and I actually tried more. Now my offline business keeps me busy. I usually set scripts up out of the box. Make simple layout changes and pay the hosting bill. I hardly even promote sites anymore. I don't need to make anything off them.
