Upcoming interview series

jbilohjbiloh Administrator, Veteran
edited March 2020 in General

Hi everyone,

As part of our efforts to enhance the quality of content being posted on Low End Box I have created a number of new iniaitives, such as polls, opinion editorials, the return of tutorials and lastly, interviews with people in the hosting industry. The goal is to publish at least one q/a session each month. The format is easy, about ten questions.

Are there any hosting providers around that would be interested in participating? Each interview published on Low End Box will include only one host at a time so it's also a nice little pr opportunity for hosts. The only requirement is that you are able to write English well enough where the content of your answers does not need to be reworked prior to publishing. Whether you are a sole proprietor, or an owner/executive of a bigger hosting company, you're eligible to take part in this.

If you're interested post here and then we'll connect via DM.

Looking forward to it!

Thanks everyone

    This looks interesting! Looking forward to this. [Not a host]

    Sadly some of the most interesting hosts (those who started here or had a significant presence and became successful) will not be willing to participate.

    BuyVM, RamNode, Inception Hosting, HostUS, HostHatch, Secure Dragon, Iniz, Dediserve...

    The 1 per month target seems a bit ambitious, but good luck.

    Patience and perserverence my friend. I bet some of those names will participate. And if not, it'll be their opportunity lost.

    Fabozzi or Niedojadlo

    Glad you agree. If you are interested in taking part send me a DM and we'll work out the details.

    Hah, I do wonder where young Johnny ended up. Hopefully far away.

    Now THAT would be a content piece that draws a LOT of eyeballs.

    That's for sure.

    Hopefully he is getting his life together away from the internet.

    So far I've gotten 4 submissions, and all are excellent, thank you guys.

    Would like to have 3-4 more so I can get things scheduled out a few months in advance.

    If you are interested let me know!

    Sounds like a great way for the community to get to know providers better. We would surely be interested.

    I get the feeling that these won't get that much traction unless you can find interesting people. At-least after the first few.

    Prove me wrong I guess.

  • create a Youtube channel, post recorded videos of interview, or even real time streaming, and ask questions with bonus pack for lucky audiences. guess this could be fascinating.

    We'll see how it goes.

  • jbilohjbiloh Administrator, Veteran

    Hi Everyone,

    Right now we have 5 interviews written with a couple more pending. I'd like to have another 4 or 5 come in. Who else is interested?

    The first one will be published in April and then every couple weeks.

    What a great idea! Excited to see these interviews and can only hope to see more and more interviews - anyone part of this community running a business should do this.

  • Fran at BuyVM is the obvious choice

  • jbilohjbiloh Administrator, Veteran

    I've had two more hosts take part today.

    Thank you for your consideration but I'll pass for now and give others the opportunity ( they deserve it better than me ) and besides, I am still a new member here. I will probably consider it later :)

    I'd be interested to see how they're conducted and how they look once posted. It's an overall interesting incentive if done right.

    So far so good, have had a number of additional hosts express interest the last 24 hours. Glad to see so many folks take part.

    If anyone else wants to talk about an interview just send me a PM. :)
