Name of your website?Rising Son Radio
Your name?
John
Your Location (city, etc)
Mountain View
Why did you start RSR Radio?
I felt a need for christian programming in my area, that couldn't pick up FM, and that also wasn't able to listen in.. to broadband only stations. We broadcast at 48kbps so that virtually anyone can tune in now!
What inspired you to launch your own website?
I felt it was necessary for a portal to tune in, and also for news and info about the station.
When did you launch your first website, and what was it?
Years ago, I was in the military, first learning HTML, and did a website for a squadron in Saudi Arabia.
How did you decide on a name for your website?
I just used the name of the radio station. It wasn't that hard to choose!
What makes it different from other, similar offerings?
It's similar in what it offers. Contact info, tuning portals, even an IRC chat link to get online with other tuners, and chat about the programs and music being aired.
What is your eventual goal? (To sell it, keep it for income, secure a book or other mainstream media deal?)
To keep on keeping on for God. This is an amazing opportunity to reach out to the community here in Mountain View, HI, and also around the world.
How does your investment of time and money balance against your success?
Well, we just started so that not really a question I can answer right now.
If you had an unlimited development budget for development, how would you change your site?
Actually, I don't think I would change it that much. It's simple.. just about anyone could understand the content, and how to use the links there!
If your site got really big, really quickly, would you be able to keep up with the demand?
Yes, I have wrote several websites, with multiple databases in the past. I am well equipped, software wise, and server wise.
What has been your biggest challenge?
Getting listed in other directories, church sites, etc. Getting people to find us easier to tune in!
What method has been most successful for promoting your website?
Google.com hands down!
How has running your website differed from your expectations?
Not really differed that much.
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?
The site has been up about a month now, and I would expect the site to stay up as long as funds are there to finance the radio and host project. Years I hope!!
