I was looking for a book about web hosting, however, this provides little information. It is a VERY basic guide - mostly about business, little about web hosting.

I thought the book was an excellent way to get a feel for the world of web hosting. The prices are a little outdated on some of the costs involved, but overall, it covers the bases.


1 out of 5 stars Maybe 20 percent useful info, the rest you already know   March 30, 2007

I agree with reviewer Maggin and am astonished at the number of great reviews for this book. The author's friends? Any adult could write most of this book off the top of her head. Where to get funding: personal funds (DUH!), the bank (DUH!). How to fire an employee? Sigh. This is generic stuff, most is not about web hosting in particular. Same with suggestions for advertising. Maybe if you are a person with zero business experience you will benefit from some of the generic advice, but you'd do just as well with a book from your local library about starting a business in general. I returned this book in the next mail.

Essentially the point of this book is to assert that hosting web pages for yourself and your friends creates its own secondary income streams. This book, for example, which the writer self-published and marketed through Amazon. It's encouraging to learn that self-publishing is actually a relatively worthwhile pursuit here in the twenty-first century, but it's not terribly useful to someone looking for a nuts-and-bolts account of web-hosting -- which is ostensibly what the book is about. Rah, rah, Chris; thrilled to hear it's working out so well for you, but I've got a life too. See you around.

This is a book you'll want to keep near your PC for reference everyday. If you're serious about host a web site, you should also get "The Complete Web Hosting Kit Professional," which has TONS of practial how-to's as well as all the software you need to set up a web and e-mail server.
