First, I would like to applaud the founder of tindie. Takes guts to quit a comfy situation/paycheck to explore a startup idea.
However, I have to agree, keeping a blog up, which probably will only get a few thousands visits in a few hours, shouldn't be difficult. Switch from Apache, use Nginx. Then serve your static content from a CDN. NetDNA offers Bootstrap served for free at (http://www.bootstrapcdn.com/ http://www.bootstrapcdn.com/). Not sure which server side language you are using, but probably needs a bit of tweaking.
At any rate, these are just technical details. You can find other people to help you with these sort of problems.
Best of luck.
- arkitaip 14y agoI would say that if you're running a startup as a solo founder, don't bother wasting time and mental capacity on hosting your own blog - just use Tumblr or Wordpress.com. Unless you're in the blog platform business, it's really a no brainer (at least until you grow and have too much money and/or turn into a control freak). But bravo OP for having the courage to launch your own business! Good luck.
- yesimahuman 14y agoOr WP Engine, which I'm happily using. That being said, it's unfortunate this discussion has devolved into such irrelevance. To the OP: Congrats on a great start and good luck with everything!
