wow!

i have just experienced SEO big time!
i had about 300+ guests and they scared me a bit :s . (this is on www.kewlhosting.org/forum)
could somebody just explain what will now happen.

Thanks

Lewis

What happens now...

Lots of signups
Shed loads of revenue from you Ad-Sense account
New servers
Repeat until you get bored

Visit from the tax man (if you've not already registered)

Alternatively

Your systems can't cope with the traffic, you get huge overage bills and go bust.

I'd suggest you work hard to ensure scenario 1

hhhhmmm, so SEO isn't that good then?

**monaghan** · 18-06-2005, 23:25

Depends,

Presumably you want visitors / customers otherwise you'd not have started on any SEO work on your site ?

I'm guressing therefore that you didn't prepare for so many customers ? This is of course where experience comes into it's own

Why Visit the Taxman?

I think he meant after the money started rolling in...

To register your company / business interests. This avoids the investigation, fine & tax bill when they find out you've not declared your business dealings (I have a mate who's a senior tax inspector and they do find out !)

whoa! when do you have to start doing the taxman thing? me and a friend are trying to set up a small webdesign site to make a little extra cash, do we have to do it?

**monaghan** · 27-06-2005, 18:28

You have to declare all income regardless of where it originates. You are not necesserally liable for tax, but technically it must be declared.

You only need 1 upset customer to complain to the Inland Revenue fraud dept and you then are the subject of an investigation as they have to investigate every allegation

Pop down to your local tax office and get the forms from their advise centre, they'll probably have leaflets / someone to ask questions.

You may also want to consider Ltd company status as this will give you a degree of personal protection (unless you defraud someone or something equally stupid)
