Hi Simon .
What are you trying to do with the website ?
I tried for many years to develop one and it was good but never earnt a penny from it . All it did was cost money .
You mentioned you are getting paid for doing an article for a mag . I have done a few by taking pictures of my work and doing a write up on what i have done . £250 ( ten years ago ) a time for explaining what you are getting paid to do anyway is very easy money .
If you are enjoying trying to build up what ever it is you want to do then thats the main thing . I hope it works for you mate
