What inspired you to launch your own website?
I've always been an entrepreneur at heart, and I wanted to give magazine sales a try - selling them online seemed to make the most sense.
When did you launch your first website, and what was it?
This is my first, but I have several others I'm working on.
How did you decide on a name for your website?
I sell magazines nationwide, but since I operate out of the Mile High City, the name seemed to be a perfect fit.
What makes it different from other, similar offerings?
My number one priority is customer service, and I feel that I can offer a level of customer service above and beyond what others do.
What is your eventual goal? (To sell it, keep it for income, secure a book or other mainstream media deal?)
My goal is to build it into a full-time income and maintain the business and website as my own.
How does your investment of time and money balance against your success?
As it is a new business, I am still in the promotional stages, so at this point my investment of time outweighs everything else.
If you had an unlimited development budget for development, how would you change your site?
I'm happy with the website as it is right now, so I'm not sure I would make any changes in that area.
If your site got really big, really quickly, would you be able to keep up with the demand?
Absolutely - I've invested alot of time into building the site and getting it to the point where I can focus my efforts on meeting customer demands.
What has been your biggest challenge?
My biggest challenge so far has been getting traffic to the site, as that does take time and alot of footwork.
What method has been most successful for promoting your website?
So far most of my traffic has come from paid internet advertising, but I have been working on building a link base to help my search engine position.
How has running your website differed from your expectations?
I've spent more time marketing the site than I thought I would.
How long have you run the site already, and how long will you continue to keep it up if you don't enjoy big gains in traffic, income or popularity?
I started the site in November 2007, so I imagine it'll take awhile to start reaping the rewards for my efforts - I will stick with it for the long haul, as I know I have a great product line to offer and customers are happy with my service.
