> hosting 15,000 users a month is trivial for a forum use case. building a forum is also trivial. you can literally do the entire thing in 15 minutes (buy a domain, use cPanel, install phpBB, done).
Given the above is true, I have a proposition for you: I will pay you whatever you consider fair payment for fifteen minutes of your time to set me up a web site with an income of $5,000 dollars a month.
- aus8aeouns 9y agoWhat an idiotic response. He didn't say if you spend 15 minutes setting up the site you will make $5,000 per month. He said if you have content that 15,000 people a month find valuable, and if you could charge them 1 cent per hour on the site, you could make $5,000/month and that the setup costs were negligible. You're actively being ignorant. Just stop it.

- tabeth 9y agoWhat? I didn't say finding 15K users and getting them to pay a cent an hour was easy. I said setting up a website that can easily support 15K users is. I've already provided instructions on how you can trivially setup a phpBB forum using cPanel.
- Safety1stClyde 9y ago> I've already provided instructions on how you can trivially setup a phpBB forum using cPanel. This statement is incorrect. You haven't provided instructions on how one can trivially set up a phpBB forum using cPanel.
