I Almost Made The Biggest Mistake of my Life!

                 I almost made the worst decision of my life. I talked our new CEO into closing ChrisBOnTheWeb Media all together. I know she asked me if I was sure on this decision. I was pretty much ready to separate the podcasts from the company which probably would of done a lot of damage to the website in viewership and it's about the views and the clicks, that's how we earn money from ChrisBOnTheWeb.com. It would of been very detrimental to the site and the website would really look empty without the podcasts.

                Of course with one of these stories comes a lesson. The lesson of the week is to think before you act. Make sure you are 100% sure that you want to stop doing something like we have been doing for practically the last 10 years now. Also I want to add and you guys have heard me talk about this on "Entertainment Man" in the past about weighing your pros and cons and quite a lot! I always reference an old episode of the podcast or even a blog post right here on chrisbontheweb.com. My takeaway from all of this is to think it through before I act upon it and always weigh my pros and cons. I hope you guys learned something from this story and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow for another blog post.

Trying To Figure Out Some Things...

               You might of not know but I have the domain for another 2 years then it's renewal time once again to ensure I renew it in 2022. I can be honest with you guys, I am 50/50 on making a business decision with ChrisBOnTheWeb which is actually renewing the domain and spending the money to renew it for 10 years which is a very very long time, takes the website to CBOTW's 20th Anniversary in 2034. I have to think strategic with it and I have to do what's best. I have some money saved aside for it but I have to make sure I wanna continue for the long run and I do. Yes, ChrisBOnTheWeb is doing quite well and the views are there and in the back of my mind I can see the 10 Year Anniversary it is not that far from it, 3 years to be exact. I just do not wanna make the wrong move and renew the domain for 10 years and then end up quitting and  screwing myself out of the money for it. That is my dilemma because back then when I had the other team, it was a mess and I ended the team and had a domain already and had to cancel it which I didn't even get my money back and I should of known better.

              So I have to really think things through to really come up with a decision if it is in my best interest to renew for that length of time and I am pretty sure it will be around. There is no plans to end it anytime soon as I am in a good place but again I am going to weigh the pros and cons of deciding to go with a more long term plan. I think this is definitely the time to think long term for ChrisBOnTheWeb.com because I have it set on the site where I am actually happy with the state of the site and not planning to change anything on the website at this point.  However I have sometime to weigh the options. Anyways that is my post for today I will talk to you all on Monday with a very special post for the first time in 16 months, till then have a great weekend!
