How many sites do you operate, optimize, or admin?

[creative craig]

Alot of the members here have alot of control over alot of sites, I was just wondering how many sites that the members have actual control over?

I currently have 9 with another 4 coming over to me in the next few days. Thats alot to me, I no doubt others here have loads more.

[deejay]

heh... sounds like a lot to me too.

Currently control four.. and have a hand in three others.

I'm just a baby geek really :)

[jackofalltrades]

a newbie with only 4!

JOAT

[creative craig]

I am sure that I have heard people talking about 50+ sites before, just cant remember who it was!

Craig

[wingslevel]

4 major dynamic sites. 8 minor static sites.

I am always behind with this many sites....

[nicebloke]

We look after well over 50 sites.

[Eric_Jarvis]

3 at work...plus 2 personal and a newsgroup FAQ site...I also still have links with two of my clients from when I was freelancing and still do much of the heavy duty stuff on both of those sites

so 8

[SlyGuy]

Currently working with about 15 sites..4 or 5 on the way..fingers crossed.

[dingman]

5.5 - my boss can't make up her mind whether I control that 6th site or not.

<edit reason="forgot 2 that are my work from soup to nuts but that I hardly touch anymore.">

Currently in the process of sell but my last count was:

3,486 domains with 2,126 sites (the other domains are redirects).

Chris.

Hopefully, it will be below 15 before long.

[creative craig]

Bloody hell :o , how does it work out at 3,486!

Are they sites that you have designed, do SEO work for etc etc...?

Craig

[DaveN]

30 paying seo sites

shed loads of dead sites

DavedN

about 5000 customers sites we design and host

[chris_f]

I created and did SEO for them all. However, I get friends and others to write the content (or customers - like a classified adds system).

Why do you think I'm selling. There are just too many to manage.

Chris.

[creative craig]

How long have you been in the business, to build a portfolio of that size?

[Mike_Mackin]

I note that people with LOTS of sites are staying under the radar in this thread. ;)

[chris_f]

I had 3 sites until 18 months ago.

I'm a fast learner

I'm down to 1,233 domains with 1,682 sites (the other domains are redirects) now (the rest are in the process of being sold). I'm selling them off to start again. My phone hasn't stopped. I think work are upset with me.

Chris.

[Andrew Thomas]

Im new, only 4 with another 1 on the way. But starting to advertise, so hopefully more to follow

[richlowe]

I run 2 major intranets and about 50 personal sites. One of the personal sites is major, the rest are medium to minor.

Richard Lowe

[Terrier]

Three sites two that are important to me, and one I am about to dump, that was first one I ever did. Two new ones on the way over the winter.I don't have clients I only have myself to curse when I get it wrong.

[DrCool]

10 sites I am actively working on and dozens more sitting around doing nothing.

[unknownsoldier]

I used to look after a network of about 150 but that was toooo much and I found my self not caring for many / any. At the minute I have about 10 under my wings 5 mine, 5 clients, life is a lot easier and stress free now :)

[wolfy]

Wow great numbers I "only" manage about 10 sites but I think one problem is even the e-mail addresses to manage of a web site. When you are managing about 20 or more addresses it's a problem just deleting spam messages isn't it?

[brotherhood of LAN]

2 sites. Hope to become a pro-spammer soon, and have enough domains coming out my ears to fill up those SERPs :)

[creative craig]

Good point Wolfy, I had to spend about 30 minutes this morning dealing with junk email. Gets abit boring after a while :(

Thats over about 20 email accounts.

[uk_dokey]

I have just 2 sites with 1 new one coming soon. The first one is my most successful and takes a few hours a day to maintain, the other one is fairly new but is beginning to do well. The newest one is similar to the first and is aimed at a US audience (other 2 are UK) 3,000 and over wow! that would be too much for me.
