Q: How much cost you to maintain your website?

My designer told me after the site is completed, I'll be paying minimum 6000rmb on site maintenance+roughly 1800rmb on website hosting.  Or he'll give me those codes for me to find cheaper maintenance service. I know some members on ecc are the business owner. How much do you spent on maintain your website for a year? Where did you buy your hosting service and how much do you spent on hosting yearly? Is it stable? My designer said some of his clients brought cheap hosting on godaddy but the sites often run into problem. I am looking for cheaper options to host and maintain my site but has to make my site functional and stable. 6000rmb maintenance fee is too much pressure for a startup business after I paid 25K site building fee.

 

I want to know if 6000rmb maintenance cost+1800rmb site hosting cost are necessary to spent for making the site functionable. It is a bit of pressure to spent that much money for my new business while I have other outgoing company management fee.

 

Another question is if godaddy is unstable to host? My designer said some of his clients give this feedback.Looks like a lot of his clients went to find cheaper maintenance fee+hosting fee after the site is built by his team.

Well I am a world class professional designer myself and I self taught c language. I make loads of money helping people build and maintain websites. I also help people with promoting their websites. That person did not charge you nearly as much as I charge my clients. But then of course, you live a cheap life and 6k is a lot for you, you might have to choose a cheap service that fits your social status.

Because you are just an employee. I always hear those employees talking about those plans and laugh at the business owner for the careful spending.

 

Employees think very diffrently from the business owner.

 

I assume that you even have no idea about  those costs of running a company. lol

YOU are just an employee Viki, because you have no business and you are trying to steal some customers from your boss that you are always complaining, and apparently the return won't even cover your website maintenance! Didn't I just tell you I run the designing business, or maybe in your dictionary, only stealing customers from bosses are considered to be real business? One thing is for certain, when God was throwing intelligence down to the Earth, you were holding an umbrella.

Someone likes you who is not even logical running a design business. stop lying and you do not even have enough experience for being a designer.

 

 

You shift from job to job without focusing on one area to improve yourself. It won't make you an expert. You are just an internet clown who keeps lying about your success to earn face.

There's a diffrence of a reasonable complaining and floosh compaling.

 

Like I complain my boss to try to make money for sample is reasonable, you sell sample at bulk price which he doesn't lose money. lol

I complained about him not fire the assistant refused to go meert the clients, of course it is reasonable.

 

He's trying to save his cost on packing cost which is understable, and I always remind the packing guy downstair to make the package small while packing the sample.  While the other employees do not care and often make the package big and increased the shipping cost.

lol yeas stealing customers are imoral. But a lot of people are doing it, unfortunately business can get dirty in real worlds. Playing moral card is not going to run business easily. I remmberr when I first post it, there are guys who own business does agree with it. Only some few old posters disagree. Even I do not steal. the boss has big chance to destory those orders by not deliver on time to piss the clients and the boss will not refund the clients while the clients ask. That have been happening all the time. I took some of those clients and work on my term, I invested my money to make a sample for free to win the french client, I put some money for overproduced some containers for selling to the swiss client while he only orders 85pcs, which the MOQ is 100pcs, I sell the overproduced container models to saudi client at retaill price. I gave very low price for getting the client places me first order for plane which my boss will have 90% chance of not doing it. I offer design advice, business marketing advice for my clients. I did quality control, I did design consulting to the client. I put my efforts in, which are the services my boss will hardly give. Even if I do not steal, my boss will have high chance of losing those business. He has pissed many clients off. And the boss is a nasty guy I have to say, he even does not want to refund the money to clients after delaying products delivery for 1-3 monthes. I remember when my foot was injuired, he forced me to walk to exhibition without showing any sympathy. Still he ownes me like 2 monthes insurances and lied about my bonus and did not pay. Those clients who are stole by me are luckier, because now they get on time delivery, good quality, good service. They are happy, they tell me that they like to work with me. And today is May 21, still not pay salary while the pay day is May 10. I am just staying here till I stablize my business and leave for focus on my own company.

Before I approach some important cleints, I would do a background check of their business and I will draw them a business campaign picture for their busines, and then tell them how my scale model can help their business. That is how I get my kicks on deal closing.

This world is moving fast, only the smart one lives eventually.

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
