Dear Forum Owner:

This afternoon, I was reading the list of available voy forums, and I came across this one. It is apparently new. I don't really know who Florence Warner is, but I have a question about something you wrote:

>Since I have a large number of webpages to administer,
>monitor and manage, I do not have time to play wet
>nurse to whiney babies or cyberterrorists.

Next year, I will begin college where I hope to study computer science. I haven't been able to find out anything about how much money a webmaster or administrator who manages a webpage would make in a year. Is it a good living? How many hours a week does it require? How many webpages do you have or manage?

Thanks for any information you can give me.

Poindexter

Hi, Poindexter,

Thanks for coming by and chatting. The amount of money one can make on the internet is unlimited, depending upon your business savvy, ability to work hard, and good luck. Being only a webmaster, however, will not get you rich, unless you are the webmaster of your own business webpage, or unless you have a lot of webpages.

You asked how many webpages I managed. Currently, 109. I manage 31 snowbird.net pages, 11 yahoo.com pages, one bravenet page, and 66 0catch.com pages and 667 files. Over the past two years, I have averaged 55 hours a week on these pages. From August through December, I average 80 hours a week. The remainder of the year, January through July, I spend a little less than forty hours a week in the management of the websites.

If you are going into Computer Science, I recommend your own company and hire someone to manage your business webpage. Then make a personal webpage to manage for yourself and play on it.

Best wishes to you, and visit us anytime.
