This isn't a viable business at that price. Also the domain and contact email domain being completely different is just plain unprofessional looking

- that_guy_iain 6y agoWhy do you say that? Pretty sure wp engine was more expensive when it launched.
- sudhirj 6y agoI think parent meant it's too cheap? I have a license for Excel, so I can confidently say that the margins work for me, for my expenses and lifestyle. Assuming I hit at least 100 customers, of course. At 500 or 1000 customers I'd retire and write a book.
- sudhirj 6y agoIt's more a WPEngine inspired service. I can maintain margins of 80% counting only CoGS, not my time. So with about 350 customers I can live like a king (third world country), send kid to the best private school and do holidays in London / New York. 500 customers would be enough to exceed all expectations, and I manage that easily with very basic automation.

- sudhirj 6y agoAnd re the contact email domain, thanks for the feedback, will fix that soon. I'm planning to do some stuff with DNS to support silent CDN switching between providers, so I don't want to put my MX records on it yet. Might have to slide it around on Cloudflare or Route53 a few times till I figure out all the details.
