To make dreams come true you need two things: focus and time. Without focus a project takes way too much time, and without time…
Anyway, I had a dream that I wanted to come true. With some spare time in the weekend and in the lunch breaks, which are 2½ hours here, the second factor was available. I struggled a little bit more with the first factor, since I tend to jump from database design to logo design to testing out e-mail automation. But I managed to stick to my plan:
Create a new domain;Install WHM;Move my current sites from TotalChoice Hosting to WHM;Define my hosting packages;Install phpCOIN;Create a PayPal merchant account;Install IPN module and test Paypal;Define products and prices;Test the order and invoice processes;Test helpdesk e-mail processing;Write Terms of Service and Acceptable Use Policy;Tweak hundreds of parameters;- Design a nice logo;
- Create a new stylesheet
- Add some more information about the server and the hosting plans;
- Add hosted by buttons to my current sites;
- Make some publicity;
- …profit!!!
Everything is fully operational, but it has a horrible design. I hope to fix all that this week, take my summer holidays and open the site on August 1st.
