    I implore you to launch a satellite and name it Spyware satellite.

    @SWN_Michael One thing that was mentioned to me.
    Wait till you can get 2 - 4 racks at your current location and then expand to your next place. Make sure your profit by 1 full rack before you expand.
    Basically have enough money coming in that when you lease your next rack you are not draining yourself.

  • just stay with tampa and maybe if you really want to do something exotic such as singapore, or australia.

    Don't forget Luna.

    If you are insane enough, or high enough, Mars as well.

    +1. First location is your expense. Everything else should be paid for by the company :).
    Keep up the good work and stay strong. You just started and you will go a long way if you take the slow and steady route :)

  • cazrzcazrz Member

    Do you already own the hardware in your Tampa before thinking on expanding to another location?

  • qpsqps Member, Host Rep

    Don't spread yourself too thin this early on. If you think your current location is working, stick with it and grow. You can expand elsewhere later on.

  • cazrzcazrz Member

    My vote is
    1. expand or add more racks in Tampa
    2. Seattle
    3. and of course SBG

    Tampa is fully owned.

    FUCKING YOLO it. :smirk:

    Honestly: see how things go with your Tampa location get you a couple of racks there.

  • Not looking at immediate expansion plans, but the next 6-12 months

    Oh, before you even think of expanding, sort out your IPv6 stuff first :joy:

    Good stuff sir.

    But yeah, focus on what you have a the moment.

    Adding more racks is also considered as an expansion ☺️

    Fair enough :smile: I'm just trying to figure out the future and maybe generate some buzz while I'm at it.

    Had to Google where Pripyat was. Google says population: 0, followed by a trip offer for $1296 and I could be there in 14.5 hours. I'm going to stick with Mexico with my vacations (FYI Google).
