We did an survey with some of the leading websites running on the PhpFox platform. We wanted to find out what were some of the biggest mistakes that the owners made when they were getting started. To our surprise, the number one issue was the same.
1) To much time is spent developing the site and not enough building memberships
2) Overspending on 3rd party modifications.{{{gold}}}
3) Didn’t anticipate additional expenses like needing a dedicated server as our community grew.
4) Poorly made modifications by 3rd party vendors caused more problems than improvements to our site.
5) Learning Curve: Didn’t realized how much time would be involved to learn the basics for running our site.
More than likey whatever platform you are getting started with these tips can apply.
This is all so very true. I’m learning all of the above as I start my own online community.
