Forum Moderators: phranque
As a web developer, what is your biggest challenge in running your website?
For me, it's content! I have the hardest time coming up with content on a consistent basis. I guess it doesn't help when you run a magazine and your readers expect new content on a weekly basis!
But I sometimes sit for far too long, trying to think of things to post. Even worse, I may spend hours researching topics and still come up with nothing.
What about you?
I've given up on trying to do these kinds of projects though, and I'm now focusing on creating community-like websites where the users participate in adding information. Seems like the best solution for me.
Yeah, I'd have to agree about looking for other people to help fill in the content. A community is one way to do that, but not as fast as if you had cash to throw at the problem. There is free content available on the web with various strings attached. That can help a little, but I don't see myself ever relying on that. And at the start of a site I don't think you'll get much good content out of your forum-goers. Sometimes... if you want the job done right you just have to do it yourself.
